Description

The Fiat Panda 100hp was launched in 2007 as the sportiest version of the Panda ever produced.

The car was fitted with the 1.4-litre 16-valve FIRE petrol engine taken from the Fiat Punto, in a slightly more powerful version producing 100hp (74 kW). Power was transmitted to the front wheels through a six-speed manual gearbox. The Panda 100hp was equiped with a lowered and stiffer suspension that improved the handling of the car and upgraded braking system with disc brakes in all four wheels. Thanks to its low weight of just 975 kg, the car accelerated from 0–100 km/h in 9.5 seconds and could reach a top speed of 185 km/h (115 mph).

Visually, the Panda 100hp was distinguished by a new bodykit that included restyled bumpers with larger air intakes and a new grille, side skirts,  a rear wing and unique wheel design. It was only available in black, white, red, metallic blue, and metallic gray and featured tinted windows. Due to tightening emissions regulations, Fiat halted all Panda 100HP production in July 2010 while the next generation of the Fiat Panda wasn’t offered in sporty guise.
