Fiat Ducato

The Fiat Ducato is a no-nonsense workhorse that turns practicality into an artform, with a cavernous, flexible load area and predictable, car-like driving manners that make long days behind the wheel far less tedious. It’s equally at home with a tradesman’s kit or a camper conversion, offering sensible packaging, easy servicing and the sort of reliability that keeps surprises—and down-time—to a minimum.

+ Great, firm seats, large boot for such a compact car, good fuel economy, lots of interior space, uncomplicated controls, very agile and safe handling, good build quality, very good steering, good braking performance, relatively small turning circle
- Very poor voice control and navigation, cockpit display too small with very small fonts and symbols, steering wheel too thin, seats too flat despite electric adjustment, poor engine soundproofing, tank far too small, complicated maintenance (oil change appalling), undersized rear brake, fuel filler on the wrong side, sound almost without bass (Beats)
