The Fiat Ducato is a light commercial vehicle developed by the Sevel joint venture between Fiat and PSA Peugeot Citroën, produced since 1981. It was also sold as the Citroen C25, Peugeot J5, Alfa Romeo AR6 and Talbot Express for the first generation while the second and third generations were marketed as Fiat Ducato, Citroën Jumper, Peugeot Boxer and as the Ram ProMaster for the third generation US and Canada market starting in 2013. In Europe, it is produced at the Sevel Sud factory, in Val di Sangro, Italy. It has also been produced at the Sevel factory in Sete Lagoas, Brazil, at the Karsan factory in Akçalar, Turkey, at the Lotus factory in Iran, at the Chrysler factory in Saltillo, Mexico, and at the Sollers factory in Elabuga, Russia.
Since 1981, more than 2.6 million Fiat Ducatos have been produced. The Ducato is the most common motorhome base used in Europe; with around two thirds of motorhomes using the Ducato base.
The Ducato was first launched in 1981 and was the result of Fiat's collaboration with PSA Peugeot Citroën that resulted in the vehicle's development starting in 1978. The vehicles were manufactured at the Sevel Val di Sangro plant in Atessa, central Italy, together with the similar Alfa Romeo AR6, Citroën C25 and Peugeot J5 versions. The Peugeot J5 was sold as the Talbot Express in the United Kingdom (1986–1994). The collaboration of Fiat and PSA had earlier produced the Fiat 242 and Citroën C35 from 1974.
