Entry-level car has basic features.
The rear wiper on the 500 and I assume (possibly wrongly) the Panda operates in whatever mode the front wipers are in, so if the front is on intermittent the rear is too
...the whole range of Panda's is quite poverty striken...
*** BREAKING NEWS ***The Eleganza is hardly entry model
rarely use the rear wiper even when its raining. i fnd that if you moving along at anythin over 20mph the rear window barely gets wet
To be fair, if Fiat fitted everything on the Panda that you can get on a Stilo, then (even less) people wouldve bothered buying a Stilo. The only advantage of it then becomes the space inside & associated benefits of that.
I think the only Panda that was abit stingy on kit was the early Actives. The Eleganza was amazing for it's price, which was £8095 or something when it was launched. I mean Dual Zone climate control, external temp display, electric everything, rear head rests, alloys. For 8 grand! Blo*dy bargain!
The Stilo has the annoying habit (as MEP will now) of sweeping the rear wiper continuously whilst the fronts are on and the car's reversing - highly annoying! And the fronts don't go intermittant when stationary like the Panda does either. In this instance i think Panda 1, Stilo 0.
I thought the wipers stopping was the smart-wipe "technology" that they banged on about in the spec?
Not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but if the front wipers are off, and you select reverse, and push the wiper stalk up (as if to wipe the windscreen) it will also wipe the rear windscreen once as well!
When manoeuvring, I have to advise students to switch off the front wipers and use the manual wipe [pushing up] which then also wipes the rear just once.
Glad I'm not the only one who thought the Panda was dual zone climate. But when we got our Eleganza it isn't
Meh, adjustable intermittant off-sets that
Smart Wipe I thought was the feature of it auto doing the wipers when you use the screen washers.
I don't see how it is possible for the Eleganza to have dual zone climate, just look at the controls for the climate control.
It is the same as the 100hp.
