2019 Fiat Ducato L2H1 2.2 Multijet B22 turbo diesel from Australia and New Zealand
Summary:
Everything I want in a van
Faults:
Problems with the air conditioning shortly after purchasing it; luckily nothing complicated that I couldn't solve.
The clutch made noise, it is something secondary but annoying. Sometimes the malfunction light comes on, even if there is no operating problem.
General Comments:
The truck is surprisingly agile, fast, brakes very well, and the engine has very good output. It is very easy to drive both on the road and in the city. Added to the smoothness of the ride, it is a very safe van, you can go at speeds above 150 km/h without noticing any differences compared to a car.
No rust problems so far, especially living in a climate prone to that. Average consumption is near 6.0 L/100 km, more than enough for a van of its size, which makes it special for long distances. As for work, it moves very easily even when it has high loads, this particular model can load up to 2000 kg. An ideal vehicle for work, it does not have expensive parts and it has simple mechanics despite being new.
The Ducato has reliability and safety, something that many Fiat vehicles in Australia have not had.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I don't know much about the Sofim engine. All the Ducatos I saw had the JTD/Multijet engine.
Good review. The second generation of the Ducato has a very attractive design.
