Fiat Doblo (2010-2020) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Lots of cabin space	Disappointing safety rating from Euro NCAP
Sliding rear doors make getting in and out easy	Not very well equipped
Affordable used car prices	The ride is bouncy

Quick Summary

The Fiat Doblo (2010-2020) is a small van with windows—a spacious, practical car with a compact footprint and an affordable price tag. The second-generation Doblo arrived in 2010 with only 3% of components carried over from the original. Its upright, boxy body reflects its commercial vehicle origins, offering exceptional interior space despite its modest external dimensions. With room for five as standard and an optional Family Pack providing a third row of seats, the Doblo delivers more boot space than the Citroën Berlingo Multispace and Peugeot Partner Tepee. Headroom is plentiful throughout, and sliding rear doors enhance accessibility. The high driving position suits those seeking van-like comfort on longer journeys.

By van-based MPV standards, the Doblo drives reasonably well, though the ride is bouncy and it's noisy at speed. Engine options include a 94bhp 1.4-litre petrol and two diesels: a 103bhp 1.6-litre and 133bhp 2.0-litre Multijet. Diesels offer better mid-range pulling power, though they can sound rough when working hard. A 2015 facelift improved aesthetics and added sound insulation, with post-facelift models offering a quieter, more refined experience. Running costs are affordable, particularly with diesel engines achieving 40-45mpg in real-world driving. Insurance groups are exceptionally low, and CO2 emissions keep Vehicle Excise Duty bills modest. The Doblo prioritises function over form, making it an excellent value proposition for practical buyers.

Best for: Families needing maximum interior space, those prioritising practicality over style, and budget-conscious buyers seeking affordable people-carrier transport.

Not ideal for: Buyers seeking premium comfort, advanced technology, or those concerned about Euro NCAP safety ratings, or those who value a smooth, car-like driving experience.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the Doblo if: You need maximum interior space, prioritise practicality over style, or seek an affordable people-carrier for family transport.

Consider alternatives if: You value premium comfort, advanced technology, or have concerns about Euro NCAP safety ratings, or prefer a smooth, car-like driving experience.

Competitive Position: The Fiat Doblo (2010-2020) is an excellent value proposition in the used people-carrier market, offering exceptional interior space and affordability. Whilst rivals like the Skoda Kodiaq and Citroën C5 Aircross offer superior comfort, technology, and safety ratings, the Doblo's lower purchase price and practical design make it ideal for budget-conscious families. The Nissan X-Trail provides a more car-like driving experience, but the Doblo's sliding doors and cavernous interior remain unmatched for sheer practicality. For those prioritising space and value over refinement, the Doblo represents outstanding value.
