Just checking online at Fiat.co.uk and going into the "configure a fiat" and looking at the panda things have changed... the grill is the new one (on the active eco 1.1 its uncoloured but the new shape), extra colours have been added but some options have gone (like full size spare wheel !!)

Interesting.

Just had a look at the 100HP, looks like nothing's changed, except it's now saying it comes with 17" alloys! A typo surely!?

17" yum

The configurator is missing this new colour called Rosso Arzillo (Metallic Magenta Red)



I don't think its been updated fully

i love those new 13" steel wheels!

Just had a look at the 100HP too and they seem to have given it body coloured wheel arches & side skirts the old black ones looked better in my opinion.

They have always been like that on the site. Looks like Fiat have been too lazy to blacken them out.

wouldn't that mean that it would now be taller than a standard Panda notwithstanding lowered suspension? Think the only difference on Series 2 100hp is the price.

Indeed the prices for all are well up.

Like the new yellow though...

Some very nice colours Tribal Violet and Electroclash grey have taken my eye will have to get onto my dealer, but looks like no Magenta Red shame.

Panda does look better with the slight change of grill.

The grills have been coloured in for ages, whether it was a mistake and Fiat looked at it and thought it was good for the update or that part of the new artwork has been done for ages and released too soon I dont know.

Is that metallic magenta colour a rip-off of the new Ford colour?

They're just different wheel trims. You could put them on any Panda really

Love the new colours

It was silly that they've got all these interesting colours on 500's in the same factory and are not doing them on the Panda. A nice little revamp for the Panda. Will be good to see the new and more interesting colours on the road

Just noticed that the cross has a few new colours and the 4x4 has the full range of colours

Also noticed the violet seat colour

That would look great on the 100hp! if only........

Just specc'd my own 100hp which has the subwoofer.

Can't see any changes apart from the price at £11050, but notice in the detail that the rear view mirror is in chrome(!). That was the only difference I noted.

Wheel size was specc'd as 15" didn't see any 17" options (total madness) in the spec.

do you think someone at Fiat reads the forum - this morning it definitely said 17 inch alloy wheels when you clicked Wheels.
And what about the pass seat folding to become a table - is that new?
And a Body coloured rear door post - what's that? Must be important as it's the third thing mentioned.
Good to know it still comes cling filmed.

Well, we'll have a good idea if the 'chrome' rear view mirror dissapears.

Yes the wheels were 17" the other day

More pics & info....

The cosmetic changes on the new 2010 Fiat Panda include a new body coloured grille which was first seen on the two-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive Dynamic trim level, new alloy wheel options, larger exterior mirrors and silver trim finish for the roof bars. There are also four new body colours for the Panda.

Inside, the instrument panel gets fresh graphics and also a new selection of upholstery colours, while under the hood, there is a new 1.2-litre petrol engine that produces 69bhp. This fits into the wide range of engines available for the Panda, with petrol, diesel, natural gas and LPG versions available giving power outputs ranging from 54 to 100bhp.

In the six years since the new Panda was launched back in September 2003, Fiat has sold 1.5 million units of the compact city hatchback, and the floorplan has been used for cars like the Fiat 500 and the new Ford Ka.
