FIAT has unveiled a bold new addition to its commercial lineup: the TRIS, a fully electric three-wheeled vehicle designed with urban professionals in mind. Compact, efficient, and tailored for congested city environments, the TRIS aims to offer a practical and affordable mobility solution for small businesses and independent workers.
The new vehicle comes in three configurations—cab chassis, flatbed, and pickup—allowing for a variety of uses across sectors such as delivery, logistics, and service industries. While the TRIS breaks ground in terms of structure and eco-friendliness, its design remains unmistakably FIAT, blending function with a familiar brand identity. Beyond the aesthetics, its ease of use and low operating costs make it a particularly attractive choice for urban professionals looking to cut down on both emissions and expenses.
The TRIS is being made in Morocco, and its initial launch will focus on key markets across Africa and the Middle East. This strategy aligns with Stellantis’ broader ambitions in the region. As the parent company of FIAT, Stellantis is aiming to grow its presence by offering accessible and sustainable transport options tailored to local needs. The TRIS is a cornerstone of that plan—a tool not just for mobility, but for economic empowerment.
Understanding the financial realities many entrepreneurs face, FIAT is introducing flexible leasing options, including contracts with or without purchase commitments. This approach is designed to appeal particularly to small business owners and participants in the informal economy, offering them a chance to modernize operations without a heavy upfront investment.
According to Samir Cherfan, who oversees Stellantis operations in Africa and the Middle East, the TRIS represents more than just a new vehicle category. He sees micromobility as a vital component of economic infrastructure—supporting supply chains, enabling digital services, and strengthening local economies, especially in underserved or remote areas. For Stellantis, the TRIS isn’t just about transport. It’s about transformation.
