Its immediate neighbours are the MD-38 XA below it with 3,430 kg and the 244 DUCATO/BORCO-HÖHNS above it with 3,470 kg. Gross vehicle weight across the Fiat range ranges from 850 to 25,200 kg; here the HYMER TYPE 690 sits at the bottom of that range with 4,500 kg. 2638 Fiat models across 43 series are on record.

Fiat – other models: trucks and the Ducato motorhome base before Iveco was founded in 1975, from the 130 NC and 170 NT to Hymer and Borco-Höhns conversions, 60 to 132 kW, four- to eight-cylinders of 2.2 to 17.2 litres

This page gathers the Fiat trucks the register could not assign to a named range – from classic construction and long-haul trucks such as the 130 NC and 170 NT through light ranges such as the 50 NC to numerous motorhome and van conversions on the Ducato base, built by body converters such as Hymer and Borco-Höhns. Fiat built commercial vehicles in Turin from the early 1900s and in 1975 merged its heavy truck ranges together with OM, Lancia Veicoli Speciali, France's Unic and Germany's Magirus-Deutz into the newly founded Iveco; type codes such as NC (Nuova Cabina) or the number combinations before the dot usually denoted the power class, but a consistent system across all the model years gathered here can no longer be read through reliably.

The register lists here 112 versions with 60 to 132 kW from four- to eight-cylinders of 2,184 to 17,174 cm³, unladen weights from 1,630 to 12,516 kg, gross weights from 3,495 to 25,200 kg, lengths from 5,380 to 9,700 mm and widths from 1,870 to 2,550 mm.

The span from light van chassis to heavy construction trucks shows how broad Fiat's commercial-vehicle programme was before the founding of Iveco; the Ducato motorhome base lives on today as the best-selling chassis among European motorhome makers, while the heavy ranges were absorbed into the Iveco type ranges.

On the classic truck chassis, what counts is the rust condition of frame and cab, engine and clutch condition, and parts availability through the Fiat and Iveco networks; on the Ducato-based motorhomes, additionally the condition of the body, dampness inside, and the service history of the particular motorhome maker.

What to check before buying

  • Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
  • Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
  • Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
