4x4 Piccolo Lusso

Introducing the Fiat Panda 4x4 Piccolo Lusso: a captivating fusion of design and heritage by Niels van Roij Design, made for Kaeve Cars Uden

Uden, Netherlands – August 4, 2023 – Niels van Roij Design is thrilled to present their unique restomod Fiat Panda 4x4, a stunning collaborative effort with Kaeve Cars. A small, yet luxurious car – Piccolo Lusso.

Drawing inspiration from the resplendent Italian Mediterranean Sea, the Fiat Panda 4x4 Piccolo Lusso is a homage to both elegance and functionality. The exclusive and evocative paint finish, aptly named Azzurro Blu, perfectly encapsulates the allure of the azure waters that grace the picturesque coasts of Italy.

Renowned car designer Niels van Roij has meticulously curated every facet of the Panda 4x4 Piccolo Lusso's interior too, transforming it into a work of art that seamlessly marries opulence with comfort.
The soft leather upholstery, elegantly embellishing the door panels, seats, dashboard, steering wheel, sun visors, and more, radiates an air of luxury and sophistication. The colour palette chosen for the interior is a nod to the vibrant brown hues reminiscent of Mediterranean architecture, imbuing the cabin with a sense of warmth and character.

A further striking highlight of the interior design is the upholstery of the seat hearts and rear bench centres. The meticulous use of cloth here, intricately woven with small squares, serves as a ode to the iconic boxy silhouette that is synonymous with this Italian piece of car design.

The one-off Fiat Panda 4x4 Piccolo Lusso pays homage to its origins as a Panda 4x4 Sisley too, infusing new life into a classic favorite. The original interior, weathered by time and beyond restoration, underwent a remarkable transformation.

Celebrating the Panda 4x4's adventurous spirit, the charming Sisley emblem of the 'man in a canoe' was integrated into the headrests, door panels, and steering wheel. This iconic motif serves as a constant reminder of the Panda's enduring appeal and the unique Sisley donor car. Adorning the coachline on the car's side, this Sisley emblem finds harmony with the rich brown leather interior, forming an elegant and cohesive narrative that resonates throughout the vehicle.

In a tribute to the concept of holistic design, every external element that is traditionally left unpainted, such as the bumpers, mirrors, rubbing strips, ventilation units beneath the windscreen, and even the door knobs and the petite rear hatch push button, have been flawlessly painted in the resplendent Azzurro Blu, creating a harmonious and captivating visual statement.

Further augmenting the allure, the Fiat Panda 4x4 Piccolo Lusso boasts the addition of white indicators to the front corners and clear side repeaters which were specially engineered onto the Piccolo Lusso as they are available in ochre only from Fiat. These intricate design elements showcase the unwavering dedication of Kaeve Cars Uden and Niels van Roij Design to redefine automotive aesthetics while honoring the vehicle's rich heritage.

A touch of luxury awaits in the boot, where a precisely crafted teak deck offers a stunning visual contrast. This thoughtful addition not only exemplifies the fusion of utility and opulence but also encapsulates the very essence of the Fiat Panda 4x4 Piccolo Lusso – a celebration of heritage and nautical life.
