- The Panda by M-Sport started life as a standard road-going Fiat Panda. Following months of pain-staking design and craftsmanship, it left Dovenby Hall as a fully-fledged, fire-breathing competition car ready to take on special stages in gravel or tarmac trim.
Using their knowledge and expertise, the engineering team that worked on the Panda took the underpinnings of a Fiesta R5 Mk1 as their starting point, the most successful customer competition car ever produced by M-Sport. Since launching in 2013, M-Sport have produced 294 R5 Mk1s which have delivered a combined total of 953 rally victories to date (and still counting…)
The original shell of the Fiat Panda was carefully widened by 360mm to allow it to fit the Fiesta chassis; this provides a more stable platform for cornering performance. To not overstretch the original shape of the Panda, aggressively styled wheel arches were sculpted and fitted, with the added effect of giving the car that subtle Group B-esque look.
Powering the Panda by M-Sport is a 1.6-litre Ford EcoBoost engine, producing just under 300 bhp and 450Nm torque through a five-speed sequential Sadev transmission, mated to bespoke front and rear differential units.
The Panda by M-Sport seamlessly combines the old and the new in one purpose-built package. The interior features a dashboard inspired by the same basic one found in early Fiat Panda models, with added six-point harnesses and an FIA homologated roll-cage surrounding the driver and co-driver. Like all modern day rally cars, the rear seat bench was removed to make way for spare wheel storage, while the rear-hatch now features a carefully hand-embossed ‘PANDA 4x4’ badge, in homage to the original model. Style and safety all-in-one. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Holy that’s probably what a group B Panda would’ve looked like in a parallel universe.
Yes, except that the Group B Panda would have twice the hp, be as difficult to drive as trying to manage a whole preschool in your living room... and would be 2 seconds slower a lap than this. 😆
@@ambergris5705 If the steering wheel is useful in turning the car, it's too advanced for group b. Gobbless.
maybe group a i think
It's rather Trophee Andros ice speedway. Now get the Spikes!
@@ambergris5705 That's why he said "looked"
I want to see it at Rally Montecarlo next year 😍😍🇮🇹
Thanks🇮🇹👍
YES.
Should do road closed car in monte carlo😁😁
@@mallarally145 ok
Pretty sure an Italian in a hurry drives a standard Panda in exactly the same way as this! What a brilliant looking build, though. Hats off!
Problem is at 150 km/h it starts to take off
And radio station holy Mary starts playing prayers
@Rockin' Panda That's true I tried It myself
@@explodingdevice So, it's the first commercially available flying car.
😂😂😂👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
That Panda carries the same energy as the MG Metro Group B rally Car.
A man of culture!! The good old MG 6r4 was a beast!!
@@Scrapzilla69 Yes Thats the Name... MG Metro 6r4. Still tho im kinda a bit surprised as far as i can see no one really pointed it out... Considering its an MG Metro that Compete alongside the likes of 037 and Quattro, and to top it off, Engineered by Williams.
I looked at the thumbnail and thought it was a Metro for a second
A "modern" group b prototype. Fit it with slightly older wheels and it would look like one of those lesser known, unfinnished group B projects that never got to see action.
It does look like a 6r4 abit
I love these kind of projects. Definitely wanna see more.
We loved every minute of this project too Mark! What do you think we should do next? 😏
@@MSportLtd do the sport car or saloon car because hatchback is so common now. I'm your new fans😁👍
@@MSportLtd the possibilities are endless. A Mk1 Focus with a hybrid drivetrain in which the rear wheels are driven by electric rallycross drivetrain? A Lada Riva with a Hoonicorn-seque AWD layout? A full on rally Transit (I imagine it would just be a space frame inside of a van, which kind of defeats the purpose of a van, but still). Or maybe even a sleeper Fiesta R3 that has all the exterior of a 1.0l Fiesta. I will keep an eye out either way.
@@MSportLtd do a k20 swap Nissan micra
@@MSportLtd a Dodge neon would be neat. The srt4 is already pretty stout but imagine it with an SRT8 engine 👀
This is a certified "most wanted car in italy" moment
😂 what a legend! I’m bringing in my old Panda.. please open the back door when I knock

This is absolutely bonkers and utterly brilliant -- Well Done M-Sport!
Fantastic job, as an Italian petrolhead thanks for choosing a Panda!
Amazing!We want to see it jumping in the dust at Rally Italia Sardinia 🤣🏁🇮🇹
This is bloody brilliant!
Can't possibly get enough of turbo boxes, ever...
That definetely deserves a manly handshake. 🤝
I've never needed a Panda in my life as much as I need this one right now.
..che simpatica iniziativa..
..M-Sport: bravissimi!!!👍👍🇮🇹
I‘ve loved the Panda since I was 8, the most majestic of the boxes, I never thought of it, but you‘re right, it´s perfect rally material.
Ma è bellissima!! 🤣🤣
Thank you so much for this...
Grazie!!
One word”wow”.As a young Scottish man before i lived abroad i hated the Panda,until i owned a few.Brilliant little car,perfect project car, cheap as chips. Absolutely loved what you did, masculinity and beauty in one package.
When you hear that engine note, it fills you with happiness, then I guess the more unusual the bodystyling the more likable it is. Kinda reminded me a bit of a Vauxhall Nova, bit of a VW Golf, crossed with Metro.. but I LOVE what you've created. Well done PandaMonium team 🙏
Love the look of this! Panda really lends itself well to the rally race treatment. Great job guys!!
More of this please!!
Great job and the chassis and set up looks like they hit the sweet spot. Perfect balance through out . Love it .
I drove my mother's panda 800cc i.e. as my first car. I've always dreamed to heavily tuning it as a 4wd monster and, mechanically speaking, you realized that dream. Although I don't really like the final aesthetic of it. Maybe the color... but mostly the body kit.
That's not a critic. The project is still awesome.
Hey m-sport I love it Grazie ✌️❤️🇮🇹
"This is not the car we deserves, but the one we need right now."
Looks like a small Lancia Delta Integrale!!!
Thank you for making and sharing this!
Looks like a Nova.
Awesome panda! And so nice to see projects like these from msport! Please do more! 😁

This car will be a winner in the race, but better in a museum because it is more unique than rare..😍😍
Like a cross between a Delta Integrale and a Metro 6R4, love it.
Fiats are the best to work on! You have the most time with them :)
"Do you want me to drive it home as well?" 💪🏿😆😆😆😆😆😆😆👍🏻
