The UK market will have two new Fiat Garmin special editions to choose from which include a visual interior and exterior upgrade of the Tipo and Panda models. The collaboration between the two brands means that the special editions also come with a free Garmin smartwatch. 
While it is visual tweaks only for the Panda, the Tipo Garmin special series is equipped with the new 1,5-litre T4 48 Volt Hybrid engine which is good for 96 kW. The other newcomer in Fiat’s portfolio retains its capable 1-litre Panda hybrid powertrain that churns out 52 kW for the lightweight SUV.
What has changed is most noticeable on the exterior. Both are finished in a Foresta Green paint job with orange accents running along the horizontal line above the door sills. The orange paint is also used to initial the model name on the 15-inch Panda rims while the front end of the model has colour coded tow hitches. The SUV also boasts matte-grey skid-plates, mirror caps and side mouldings along with black trim which is the same colour as the roof rails. The orange colour continues on the inside of the Panda with contrasting orange stitching and Garmin branding on the seats.
The Tipo follows the same recipe although it can be finished in Gelato White, Colosseo Gray, Maestro Gray, and Cinema Black. The orange accent is most prominent along the side of the car although a small splash of the colour can also be found on the grille. 
The latest Fiat Garmin special editions are intended to “meet and fulfil the desires of sporty customers, looking for smart products to experience the outdoor life in the city without giving up style and distinctiveness.” That is why both models include an adventure oriented Garmin Venu Sq smartwatch which further strengthens the bond between the two international brands.
