Used Car Check: Where the Fiat Panda Falls Short
Small, practical and comparatively inexpensive: the Fiat Panda has some advantages. However, as a used car, the little Italian also has some flaws, as the Tüv statistics show.
The Fiat Panda, a subcompact car, has been in production since 2012, although it was not a completely new design at the time. Despite its age, the Panda has received a technical update in 2024 to meet EU safety requirements and is now called the Pandina. The model has had several engine options over the years, including petrol, diesel, and CNG variants, and currently offers a 1.0-liter mild-hybrid engine with 65 horsepower.
The Panda has some drawbacks, including issues with its exhaust system, oil leaks, and suspension components, which are often flagged during TÜV inspections.
