The register lists 2 versions here with four-cylinder diesel engines from 1,598 to 2,287 cm³ displacement, kerb weights from 1,745 to 2,475 kg, gross vehicle weights from 2,480 to 3,500 kg and widths from 1,870 to 2,060 mm.
As a base for refrigerated and insulated bodies, the smaller Doblo and larger Ducato cover different segments of chilled transport, from fresh-produce delivery in city traffic to medium-duty distribution vehicles for food retailers and caterers. Both base vehicles are among the most widespread light commercial vehicles in Europe, which eases the supply of parts for the base vehicle.
When buying a used refrigerated vehicle of this kind, check the function and sealing of the refrigeration units, the condition of the insulation panels for moisture and damage, the sealing of the doors, and corrosion protection on the Fiat chassis beneath the body; drivetrain parts are available through the Fiat service network, and refrigerated body parts through Lamberet and specialist refrigerated-vehicle workshops. It is also worth checking the cooling performance with the unit running and the condition of the door seals and floor gratings inside.
