Fiat Grizzly and Grizzly Fastback: new C-segment crossovers step up from the Grande Panda

Fiat has unveiled the Grizzly and Grizzly Fastback crossovers, positioned above the Grande Panda, with sales starting in Q4 2026 across Europe, the Middle East, Africa and South America.

Fiat has revealed two new C-segment crossovers — the Grizzly and Grizzly Fastback. The reveal marked the brand’s 127th anniversary: Fiat published the first official image of both models and detailed their purpose, dimensions and powertrain lineup. Both cars share a common global platform and will sit above the Grande Panda in the lineup.

The standard Grizzly is aimed at families and gets a taller, practical body with a roomy cabin — measuring 4.4 meters in length. The Grizzly Fastback features a sloping roofline and coupe-like silhouette, stretching to 4.5 meters with a 600-liter trunk.

Fiat confirmed the powertrain range: petrol, mild-hybrid and fully electric versions producing up to 145 hp, paired with manual or automatic transmissions depending on the region. Trade media had previously expected mild hybrids built around a 1.2-liter Stellantis turbo engine — the exact displacement hasn’t been officially confirmed yet, so this remains preliminary. The body will be offered in seven colors.

The public debut of the Grizzly and Grizzly Fastback is set for the Paris Motor Show in October, with commercial sales planned to start in the fourth quarter of 2026 across Europe, the Middle East, Africa and South America. No official pricing has been announced: earlier speculation about a starting price around €20,000 remains unconfirmed by the manufacturer.
