Italian style by Giugiaro
|
When the Daily model was first launched in
1978, it won accolades for its innovative design,
in which aesthetics and functionality were integrated
in a careful, stylistic balance. The Daily
shows itself to be a perfect vehicle for stowing
and transferring goods or transporting people.
Whilst being notable for its modern and original
style which, outside of professional circles,
is more than enough to inspire any onlooker.
In short, the Daily has proved itself to be the
ideal workmate with a big personality.
Today, the New Iveco Daily is once more
ahead of its time: it goes beyond the concept
of “attractive and functional” to become a
defining feature of one’s business image. In this
sense it picks up on an emerging trend in the
world of transport, especially light transport:
the commercial vehicle is no longer simply a
work tool, it is also a “calling card” which helps
convey the values and philosophy of one’s
business.
In terms of the quality of its image, a big
leap forward was required in order to make
the model a benchmark for the current market.
This is why the style of the New Daily
bears the hallmark of one of the most famous
designers in the world: Giorgetto Giugiaro.

The vehicle boasts a harmonious contour
marked by defining touches which make it immediately
recognisable. It starts with the stylish
front end, which accentuates the design adopted
across the Iveco family, and notably includes the integrated bumper-grill unit, bonnet
and roof. The raised bumper offers greater vehicle
protection whilst the front lights, with integrated
fog lights, round off its highly arresting
and personalised image.
Seen from profile, the New Daily also
shows off its solidity and volume capacity,
thanks to a sleek and elegant contour.
Amongst other things, the wide-angle wing
mirrors stick right out of the flanks, offering
optimum rear visibility whilst elegantly integrating
the side indicators (made more visible
thanks to their raised height).
Even the rear end has been redesigned
with the precise objective of conveying balance
and strength. This is demonstrated by the
spoiler, with roof air vents, which incorporates
the third brake light and loading area light.
Also new are the rear vehicle light units (with
reverse lights and fog lights on each side), the
hinges, access step and under-door guards.
The New Daily’s character can be further enhanced
with roof racks and bumpers painted
to match the bodywork colour. |
