Overview
- Fiat presented the Multiplina concept this week, which was shown Wednesday, and the company and press report a target to bring a series L7e model to market around 2028.
- The Multiplina is described as a four-seat microvan derived from a revised Topolino/Tris architecture and is intended to offer more interior space, a larger battery, and greater range than the two-seat Topolino.
- Moving the model to the L7e class would allow higher continuous power and road speeds than L6e light vehicles, with press reports citing a likely top speed near 90 km/h while official power and battery figures remain unconfirmed.
- Fiat confirms the Tris three-wheeler as a light commercial follow-up, with a European market start targeted for early 2027 and Topolino-derived drivetrain specs reported for the Tris; Fiat is already supplying 20 Topolinos to the Vatican and plans about ten Tris for its fleet.
- Analysts and journalists expect the Multiplina to aim for affordable pricing below about €15,000 but Fiat has not published final prices, and the push expands Fiat's broader micromobility strategy as Europe’s light‑vehicle segment grows rapidly and opens new uses for urban passenger and last‑mile transport.
