The most noticeable change is the new front grille, which is now a solid black panel with a thin LED light bar running across it. The headlights have also been redesigned and are now sleeker and more angular. The rear of the van is largely unchanged, but the taillights have been updated with a new LED design.

The Fiat e-Doblo has a boot space of 850 litres, which is more than enough for most businesses and families. The boot is also very versatile, with a number of different configurations.
