Fiat želi da ograniči maksimalnu brzinu gradskih modela 500 i Panda
Fiat razmatra potez koji bi mogao ozbiljno da promeni budućnost gradskih automobila u Evropi, a samim tim i u Srbiji. Generalni direktor ove marke, Olivije Fransoa, izjavio je da bi radije ograničio maksimalnu brzinu modela Fiat 500 i Panda na 120 km/h, nego da u njih ugrađuje sve skuplje bezbednosne sisteme koje propisuje Evropska unija.

TL;DR
- Fiat is considering limiting the maximum speed of the 500 and Panda models to 120 km/h.
- This is proposed as an alternative to integrating increasingly expensive EU-mandated safety systems (ADAS).
- Fiat's CEO argues that many ADAS technologies are not practical or beneficial for city driving and significantly raise car prices.
- The average price of city cars in Europe has risen by about 60% in five to six years, largely due to mandatory safety equipment.
- Fiat supports the EU's idea for a new M1E category for small electric cars up to 4.2 meters long, which could have technical requirements frozen for 10 years.
- The discussion centers on whether small cars are overloaded with technology and if speed limitation is an acceptable trade-off for lower, more accessible prices.
