Fiat Multiplay: the first images of the versatile concept car
A prototype combining space, modularity and multifunctional solutions is set to make its debut at the 2026 Paris Motor Show, exploring new possibilities in family mobility.
Unveiled at the 2026 Paris Motor Show, which runs until 18 October, the Fiat Multiplay is a laboratory of ideas for the brand’s future cars – a concept that explores new ways of making the car more versatile and adaptable to everyday needs.
Measuring 4.45 metres in length, the Multiplay combines the spaciousness of a multi-purpose vehicle, the character of an SUV and the practicality of a pick-up. The design draws on Fiat’s tradition of cars that make the most of space – from the 1956 600 Multipla to the 1998 Multipla – reinterpreting it through a design conceived to support families in their various daily activities.
A transformable architecture and a multifunctional interior
At the heart of the Multiplay is the ‘Metamorfosi’ C-pillar, a system that allows the rear module to slide along special guides, transforming the car from a six-seater estate configuration – plus an additional element – into a four-seater pick-up with an open load bed. The latter can accommodate bicycles, sports equipment and bulky items, whilst the rear spoiler transforms into an integrated bike rack for two bicycles.
The same emphasis on flexibility is evident in the cabin, where, with the load compartment closed, the ‘Petsenger seat’ can be used as a space for a pet, a mount for a child’s car seat, a small table or a storage compartment.
