Badged ‘Antarctica’ the car boasts extra standard kit plus some unique design features and is limited to 300 examples.

Available from March and priced from £14,895 the special edition Panda is, unsurprisingly, being offered in white while the car’s stand-out details include a black roof, orange detailing and 15-inch alloy wheels.

The black and orange theme continues inside the Panda thanks to the corresponding upholstery.

Standard equipment levels are high, with the kit list running to air conditioning, stability control, an electronic locking differential (ELD), specially tuned suspension, mud-and-snow tyres and rugged bodywork protection.

Power comes from either Fiat’s award-winning 85 horsepower TwinAir petrol engine or a 75 horsepower turbo diesel unit.
