FIAT UK Adds New Pop Trim To 2026 Grande Panda EV Lineup

FIAT is giving its all-electric Grande Panda lineup a big boost heading into 2026, with a brand-new Pop trim level designed to make the brand’s latest city car even more accessible to customers looking to go electric. Positioned as the new entry point in the electric range, the Pop replaces the former (RED) edition while keeping the lineup aligned with the hybrid Grande Panda models already available in Pop, Icon, and La Prima versions. The move simplifies the lineup and gives buyers a more direct choice between battery electric vehicle (BEV) and hybrid power.

What sets the new Pop trim apart is its focus on fun, affordability, and everyday ease. It keeps familiar Grande Panda touches like its rugged, geometric styling and raised stance, while adding a bit of personality with its 16-inch (406 mm) white steel wheels—a throwback to FIAT’s playful design heritage. Up front, unique Pix(LED) lighting gives the compact EV modern visual flair, while laminated glass all around helps keep cabin noise low, even on the highway.

Inside, the Pop trim delivers more than you’d expect from a so-called “base” model. Two-tone black-and-blue seats feature bold “Panda” branding, and an upper-dash storage compartment adds useful practicality for everyday family life. A 10.25-inch (26 cm) touchscreen radio with smartphone mirroring comes standard, supported by easy-to-use controls and clear graphics—something FIAT has consistently improved on in its latest generation of vehicles. Rear parking sensors, a 60/40 split rear bench, heated and power-operated mirrors, and an electronic parking brake are all included at no added cost.

While FIAT didn’t yet provide detailed performance and range updates for 2026, the current Grande Panda EV offers up to roughly 200 miles (around 320 km) of estimated driving range—plenty for daily commuting and city use. Charging should remain simple too, with a compact battery designed to recharge quickly on common public fast-charging hardware across the UK and Europe.

One detail that’s not changing: FIAT’s partnership with (RED). Now entering its fourth year, FIAT will continue to show support through design cues. Any Grande Panda—electric or hybrid—ordered in Passione Red will automatically receive (RED) badging on both B-pillars, adding a charitable connection without forcing buyers into a specific trim.

Pricing in the UK begins at £20,995 for the fully electric Pop trim, equivalent to about $26,600 USD before available incentives. The Icon sits at £21,995 ($27,900 USD), while the top-tier La Prima climbs to £24,035 ($30,500 USD). All three EV trims qualify for the recently reintroduced FIAT E-Grant program, which knocks £1,500 ($1,900 USD) off the sticker price for eligible all-electric FIAT and Abarth models—making the Grande Panda one of the most affordable EVs available in Britain today.

The 2026 FIAT Grande Panda is expected to land in UK dealerships in early 2026. With a fresh Pop trim, more value baked in, and a lineup that finally feels unified, FIAT continues its mission to make electrification simple, stylish, and budget-friendly for every driver.
