BY-LAWS 1 Having come to the realization that our off-road heritage is increasingly being threatened by the development of society. Believing that the disappearance of this asset would lead to an impoverishment of everyone’s heritage. Campagnola has adopted these by-laws. Article 1 By means of these by-laws, Campagnola establishes the Off-Road Safeguarding Association to protect the off-road. Article 2 Campagnola promotes the responsible use of off-road vehicles, with respect for the environment and in the belief that an untarnished reputation can be maintained, even when you’re knee-deep in mud. Article 3 Campagnola respects nature parks and reserves, so that future generations may also exercise their right to stray from the straight and narrow. Article 4 Campagnola actively publicizes off-road itineraries by any means, with the aim of dragging everyone into the mire, and into the mud and the gravel. Article 5 Campagnola is committed to popularizing off-road travel in all fields, except cultivated ones. Article 6 Campagnola protects the privacy of animals, suggesting alternative routes during mating periods, in the belief that fewer tyre screeches today mean more litters tomorrow. Article 7 Campagnola involves the local population in protecting the off-road environment, listening to their suggestions, even in dialect. Article 8 Campagnola is committed to ensuring that the off-road environment is not deprived of its dignity and transformed into a vulgar surfaced road. 2 Index THE IVECO CAMPAGNOLA pag. 5 THE MODEL IN BRIEF pag. 7 HEIR TO THE FIAT OFF-ROAD TRADITION pag. 9 1951-1987: WHAT A GREAT HISTORY! pag. 10 THE CAMPAGNOLA: A VERITABLE INSTITUTION FROM THE POST-WAR PERIOD ONWARDS pag. 12 AMARCORD: CAMPAGNOLA YESTERDAY AND TODAY pag. 13 DATES FOR THE FIAT CAMPAGNOLA pag. 15 THE CAMPAGNOLA’S TECHNOLOGY: INCREASES THE FUN AND CUTS THE EMISSIONS pag. 16 YES TO HANDING ON THE HERITAGE, AND YES TO THE HANDLING EASE OF THE CAMPAGNOLA. pag. 17 WHETHER THE ROAD IS ROCKY OR SMOOTH: THE CAMPAGNOLA’S SUSPENSION IS READY FOR ANYTHING. pag. 18 SLOWING DOWN THE CAR, WITHOUT DAMPING YOUR EXCITEMENT. pag. 19 3 A STATE-OF-THE-ART ENGINE, THAT INSPIRES NEW GENERATIONS. pag. 20 CAMPAGNOLA IS AVAILABLE IN MORE THAN ONE COLOUR: pag. 22 BRAND VALUES pag. 26 IVECO – THE COMPLETE RANGE OF ALL-WHEEL-DRIVE VEHICLES pag. 27 FRONT AND REAR DRIVE AXLES pag. 28 WHEELS AND TYRES pag. 29 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS pag. 30 ENGINE CHARACTERISTICS pag. 31 PHOTO GALLERY pag. 32 4 THE IVECO CAMPAGNOLA After more than twenty years the historical Campagnola is back. Italy’s best loved Fiat vehicle was originally produced in different versions from 1951 to 1987. The new Campagnola is part of the Iveco brand and is derived from Massif, the 4x4 off-road vehicle launched last March. Iveco is one of the few global manufacturers to offer a complete range of all-wheel-drive vehicles and with Massif the company has entered a completely new sector of professional transport for the first time offering two light off-road vehicles. Iveco Campagnola extends the range with a model specifically for passenger transport, without sacrificing the authentic off-road features behind the success of its ancestor: separate chassis, all-wheel-drive, high mobility and exceptional off-road capability. In addition to offering the qualities of comfort and driveability demanded by a modern off-road vehicle. 5 • • • • 6 THE MODEL IN BRIEF Heir to the Fiat tradition in this sector, the new Campagnola is a special numbered version of the Iveco Massif conceived for professional off-road use. As a passenger vehicle, the Campagnola uses the original form of the sporty off-road vehicle, reinventing the authentic spirit of the 4x4 with a modern twist. Its appearance, designed by Giugiaro and the Fiat Centro Stile is very endearing and makes it particularly attractive its front reflecting the family style of Iveco vehicles with its charachteristic radiator grille. Available only with 3 doors and 4 seats, Campagnola has a wheelbase of 2452mm, is 4248mm long, 1750 wide and 2050mm high. It is equipped with the Daily 3 litre Euro 4 HPT 4-cylinder 16-valve turbodiesel range recognized as the best engine in its class. With its Variable Geometry Turbocharger, it delivers 176hp (129.5 KW) at 3,200-3,500 rpm and a maximum torque of 400 Nm at 1,250-3000 rpm. It is combined with a 6-speed FPT 2840 transmission. Available in two historical colours, sage green and ivory with echoes of the past, Campagnola offers equipment and features more often found in ordinary cars than off-road vehicles. The interior has plenty to offer, with electric front windows, leather upholstery even for the steering wheel and transmission controls, climate control, radio/CD player with 4 speakers and optional GPS system. Outside the Campagnola “Opening Edition” nameplate displays on both sides the vehicle’s logo and number indicating a limited production series. The wheel rims and the bodywork are in matching colours while the bumper and mudguards are finished in matt. Campagnola is equipped with an engageable rear differential lock, ABS, Immobilizer anti-theft device. In order to make the most of our heritage, we’ve also made the most of our vehicle. 7 • • • • • • • • 8 HEIR TO THE FIAT OFF-ROAD TRADITION With this vehicle Iveco puts an era-defining means of transport back on the road: “the go-anywhere vehicle that doesn’t need a road” as an advertising slogan put it in 1951, the year the Fiat Campagnola was launched. The memory of the legendary light military vehicles used during the second world war still fresh in the memory: the Willys proved themselves an ideal means of support and reconnaissance. Inspired by this formula, the Italian government ran a competition for special-use vehicles. The history of Campagnola, an icon of Fiat off-road vehicles, is linked, in post-war Italy with that of its ‘twin’ Alfa Romeo. Fiat and Alfa separately designed two analogous models, named in military terms AR 51 (the abbreviation is short for ‘Autoveicoli da Ricognizione’ and the number a reference to its year of introduction of 1951) both with 1900 cm3 engines. For civilian use, Fiat chose the less aggressive name of Campagnola and its Milanese ‘rival’ was called Matta (like the joker in a pack of cards). Only the Campagnola met with extraordinary success, while the Alfa 4x4 was produced up to 1955 with only 2059 units produced. The decisive factor in determining the preference for the Fiat model was its price, the Alfa featured much more expensive technology, inaccessible to public authorities. 9 1951-1987: WHAT A GREAT HISTORY! The Campagnola D, designed by Dante Giacosa and constructed according to the Willys mould, debuted at the Fiera del Levante show in Bari in 1951 at a price of 1,600,000 lire. It had a front mounted engine, 4 driven wheels with disengagable front drive and a transfer box. In November 1951 it crossed Africa from Cape Town to Algiers in 11 days, 4 hours and 54 minutes, overcoming every possible adversity and establishing the world record. The Campagnola, with petrol engine rated at 53hp at 5,300 rpm, 4 speed and reverse transmission, (II, III and IV synchronized), lockable rear differential, central gearshift lever and top speed of 100km/h. with a gradeability of 90% (in first gear) and consumed an average of 12.1 litres per 100km. The body was 3.64m long and 1.48 wide and weighed 1,250kg. The front suspension was independent with wishbones, helical springs, hydraulic dampers and stabilizing bar. In short, the best available at that time. The rear suspension was by leaf springs with a rigid axle and hydraulic dampers. The AR 51 military version was also adopted by the Carabinieri. 1953 saw the appearance of the 40hp 3200 rpm diesel version (still 1.9) offering 85km/h at a price of 1,792,000 lire. In 1955 came the Campagnola A (AR 55) with more powerful 63hp (116 km/h) petrol engine and 43hp diesel model, in 1960 the Campagnola B with 47hp diesel engine, reaching 95 km/h. The Fiat off-road was able to carry 6 people with more than 60kg of luggage, or one person with 410kg of luggage. 1968 was the turn of the C Diesel: a 1895cc, 47hp engine developing at 3,800 rpm, 96 km/h. The production of the first Campagnola ceased in 1973, following the production of 39,086 models, of which 7,783 models were diesel. 10 The summer 1974 saw the debut of the new Campagnola, manufactured until 1979. Much more technically advanced it was also a much more comfortable model: it could transport up to 7 people. It was launched at the Belgrade Show and retained only the name of its predecessor. It was a modern vehicle with engines already proven on the Fiat 132, independent four wheel suspension and automotive bodywork. Optional features included locking differentials on both axles and improved tyres, dual-joint front driveshafts rear seats and a ventilation system. The engine had 4 cylinders inline of 1,995 cm3 swept volume rated at 80hp at 4,600rpm, 4 speed and reverse transmission, (fully synchronized), central gearshift lever and a top speed of 115 km/h. The new Campagnola was 3.77m long and 1.58 wide and weighed 1,570kg when empty. It had a selling prico of 4,076,000 lire. The ‘Torpedo Corta’ version features roof and sides in removable fabric. In 1976 the ‘Lunga’ (with an increased rear of 25cm overhang) and ‘Hardtop’ (with completely metallic bodywork) versions were introduced.
