Fiat MPV Concept Adds More 'Multipurpose' by Transforming Into Pickup

Fiat says the concept is a laboratory of ideas that can carry families, pets and outdoor gear in three different layouts.

  • Fiat unveiled the Multiplay concept at the Paris Motor Show, presenting a transformable 3-in-1 vehicle that functions as a minivan, SUV, or pickup truck.
  • This design draws inspiration from the firm's polarizing 1998 Multipla, a model produced until 2010 that earned a reputation as the 'ugliest car in the world.'
  • Measuring 4.45 meters long, the concept features Fiat's 'Metamorfosi' C-pillar architecture, which enables the cabin to shift between a 6+1 seating layout and an open-bed utility tray.
  • Inside, the Multiplay includes a modular 'Petsenger' seat with a detachable leash and folding bowl, alongside a Sunseat system that uses the dashboard as a backrest for lounge use.
  • Fiat notes the Multiplay is a 'laboratory of ideas,' cautioning that the concept may not reach production anytime soon, though it reflects broader industry trends toward modular vehicle design.
