Fiat Professional have announced the latest model to their commercial vehicle lineup - the Fiat Talento.

The new model is to be positioned between the Fiat Doblo Cargo and Ducato and comes fully equipped with a generous load capacity and full range of configurations.

Fiat's new range comes fitted with twin-turbo diesel engines paired with a six-speed manual gearbox and power outputs of up to 145hp. The Talento can be bought in a variety of different forms; van, people-carrier, crew cab or flat bed.



The name 'Talento' comes from an ancient coin called 'The Talent' which happens to be Talento in Italian, lets hope that the abilities of the new vehicle live up to it's namesake.

From a looks perspective the Talento is an attractive vehicle, its compact but not too 'boxy', sporting sleek lines with a short bonnet, the grille has been designed to wrap around the front headlights. The rear end has been squared off which helps to increase the inner space and load capacity.

Orders for the Talento open in mid-May with the final pricing and availability to me made public at a later date.
