After more than twenty years the historical Campagnola is back. It was originally produced in different versions from 1951 to 1987. Campagnola definetely is not your average neighbors SUV. It is a good alternative to Land Rover Defender and Jeep Wrangler. So all the off-roaders out there should be quit happy about it.

The new Campagnola is part of the Iveco brand and is derived from Massif, the 4×4 off-road vehicle launched last March.

Iveco is one of the few global manufacturers to offer a complete range of all-wheel-drive vehicles and with Massif the company has entered a completely new sector of professional transport for the first time offering two light off-road vehicles. Iveco Campagnola extends the range with a model specifically for passenger transport, without sacrificing the authentic off-road features behind the success of its ancestor: separate chassis, all-wheel-drive, high mobility and exceptional off-road capability. In addition to offering the qualities of comfort and driveability demanded by a modern off-road vehicle.

THE MODEL IN BRIEF
Heir to the Fiat tradition in this sector, the new Campagnola is a special numbered version of the Iveco Massif conceived for professional off-road use.

As a people carrier, the Campagnola uses the original form of the sporty off-road vehicle, reinventing the authentic spirit of the 4×4 with a modern twist. Its appearance, designed by Giugiaro and the Fiat Centro Stile is very endearing and makes it particularly attractive its front reflecting the family style of Iveco vehicles with its charachteristic radiator grille.

Available only with 3 doors and 4 seats, Campagnola has a wheelbase of 2452mm, is 4248 mm long, 1750mm wide and 2050mm high. It is equipped with the Daily 3 litre Euro 4 HPT 4-cylinder 16-valve turbodiesel range recognized as the best engine in its class. With its Variable Geometry Turbocharger, it delivers 176hp (129.5kw) at 3,200-3,500 rpm and a maximum torque of 400 Nm at 1,250-3000 rpm. It is combined with 6-speed FPT 2840 transmission.

Available in two historical colours, sage green and ivory with echoes of the past, Campagnola offers equipment and features more often found in ordinary cars than off-road vehicles. The interior has plenty to offer, with electric front windows, leather upholstery even for the steering wheel and transmission controls, climate control, radio/CD player with 4 speakers and optional GPS system. Outside the Campagnola “Opening Edition” nameplate displays on both sides the vehicle’s logo and number indicating a limited production series.
