New Fiat Doblo Work Up fleet for Glasgow City Council

All vehicles will be supplied in white and feature Glasgow City Council's livery to match the 200 other Fiat Professional vehicles already on the fleet.

The new vehicles are powered by Fiat's 1.3 MultiJet II 16v Diesel engine. The 90 bhp 1.3-litre MultiJet II diesel has an official fuel consumption figure of 55.4 mpg and an emissions figure of  133g/km.

The dropside vehicles’ load box is 2.30 m long and 1.82 m wide, with 4 m2 of loading area which can accommodate a payload of up to 1,000kg.

Options fitted to the vehicles include Remote Central Locking, Blue&Me, Steering Wheel Controls, Start&Stop and ESP.

‘During the selection process we were looking for vehicles that provided high quality and the best possible value, and Fiat Professional's models met our requirements perfectly. Reliability, competitive whole-life costs and reducing our environmental footprint were also big considerations in our final choice,’ commented Emil Laiolo, Transport manager, Glasgow City Council. 

'We are delighted with how the vehicles are performing and are looking forward to the addition of the new Doblo Work Up vehicles to the fleet,’ he added.
