Fiat Professional picks up green manufacturer award09 December 2013

Fiat Professional has been named Green Van Manufacturer of the Year 2013, with its Fiorino picking up City Van of the Year for the second year running.

The company was also highly commended in the overall Van Manufacturer of the Year category.

At the Fleet Van awards, held last week in London, light commercial vehicle manufacturers were judged on fleet criteria such as payload, safety, technology, fuel efficiency, emissions and aftersales care.

The Fiorino beat off strong competition to win this year's City Van award, with the judges citing its MultiJet II engine, economy, practicality and the levels of support delivered by the dealer network.

On to the decision to award Fiat Professional the Green Van Manufacturer prize, the judges said: "Fiat has focused on the practical application of technology to ensure its vehicles minimise the use of fossil fuels.

"From its efficient MultiJet engines to the Blue&Me telematics technology which manages driver behaviour, Fiat is equipping fleets with the tools to set their own agenda on the environment."
