Builders’ vehicles – March 2022

VAN SECURITY

The recently launched Ducato and all-electric E-Ducato will send a text to the vehicle owner if a thief is trying to break into their van. Fiat Professional’s Theft Assistance detects when someone is trying to break into a vehicle, tow it without authorisation or disconnect the battery. If any of these are detected, the owner receives assistance from a ‘my:Assistant’ operator.
