With this one-of-a kind vehicle, FIAT Professional confirms its know-how in all aspects of recreational vehicle engineering while also exploring the camper van segment which presently represents more than 25% of Europe’s motorhome market. Built on the bestselling FIAT Ducato camper base, and powered by a 2.3 150 HP Multijet II engine in long wheelbase configuration with an extended overhang and high roof, the FIAT Ducato 4×4 Expedition is designed for adventurous people seeking a vehicle which is eager and agile on the road yet rugged and capable when the going gets tough. It combines this versatility with a large, comfortable living space and more interior height than usual.

On the outside, the Show Camper Van features a two-colour paint job in two shades of grey, a raised ride-height, widened track and plenty of Ducato Camper customisations, such as a front skid-plate and LED DRLs. The outfit is completed by a front winch and roof-rack, which is fully equipped for an adventurous holiday and which also features a handy platform on which people can walk, some two and a half metres above the ground.
