Culuccia is not just any place. It is an agricultural, untouched island in northern Sardinia, a small, timeless paradise where people live simply and move with respect. This is where Panduccia was born: the first Panda 4x4e by Garage Italia Customs, designed to blend into this unique landscape, both cultural and environmental. 
Commissioned by Marco Boglione, President of BasicNet and owner of the island, Panduccia represents the perfect balance of sustainability, functionality and bespoke design. It started as a fully restored first-generation Panda 4x4, converted to electric with thanks to Newtron Group. It was built to handle the island’s rough dirt roads, weaving between juniper trees and dry stone walls, with full respect for the natural surroundings and wildlife. 
Every detail of Panduccia was designed with the island in mind. The “Sabbia di Culuccia” paint recalls the tones of the local earth and beaches. The functional accessories, like the LED roof bar, the hood-mounted air intake, and the spare wheel, were chosen to meet the demands of rural life. Even the interior reflects the essence of the place: tubular seats in painted metal and Hitch technical fabric, resistant and fireproof, with a raw yet refined look. 
Its electric powertrain features two brushless motors, one on each axle, providing permanent all-wheel drive and over 140 km of real range. The dashboard interface is a digital reworking of the original Panda layout, updated to include modern features while preserving its iconic simplicity. 
Panduccia was not made to stand out. It was made to belong. A project that is practical, silent and purposeful, just like the island it was created for. That is why it is the first electric expression of Garage Italia Customs' new vision: Panda 4x4 by GIC, a project dedicated to the complete restoration and customization of the iconic Fiat Panda 4x4, available in three versions: thermal, hybrid or electric, perfect for every need.Discover more about the Panda 4x4 by GIC project: http://www.garage-italia.com/en/customs/garage-cars/panda-4x4
