A truly bizarre two-headed van from Stellantis, the Fiat Ducato Back2Back, might look strange, but it is hiding an efficient secret.
American automotive giant Stellantis is no stranger to innovative vehicles and has a history of pushing the boundaries with cars like the Dodge Charger Daytona EV.
When motorhomes became the ‘in thing’, Stellantis decided to capitalize on that, with its creation of the Fiat Ducato Back2Back, one of the weirdest-looking vans you will ever see.
This version of the Ducato, sold in America as the Ram ProMaster, joins two cabins together and gives the impression that the Ducato has two heads.

The two-headed van is a bizarre creation
A first glance at the van shows off one of the strangest-looking vehicles we’ve ever seen.
The Fiat Ducato Back2Back is not one vehicle, but two separate ones that have been bonded together.
In fact, the two can separate, with them being joined up for easier transport.
Under the hood, each Fiat has a 2.2-liter Multijet turbocharged diesel engine.
This produces 178hp, with that power sent to the front wheels.
Technically, the Back2Back can be driven both ways, as long as the other end remains in neutral.
The funniest thing is that the two cabins don’t have to match up; they can be very different from each other.
For example, one of the Stellantis images has white paint and steel wheels, and the other is silver with 16-inch alloys.
The Fiat Ducato Back2Back has a variety of uses
When delivered to the customer, the Back2Back is split to create the two separate vehicles.
After that, the owner will then decide which motorhome design to add to the rear of the cabin.
Stellantis released images of a camper conversion using a Back2Back donor vehicle to create the motorhome.
It means you could have two very different mobile homes to take on vacations.
Each Ducato cab-end can take a maximum weight of 4.4 tons or 9,700lbs.
It’s clear that Fiat and Stellantis know how popular the Ducato is for a motorhome basis.
In Germany, for example, they are the foundation of over 420,000 motorhomes, taking a share of 42.6 percent in the recreational vehicle segment.
So while it might look odd, the Ducato Back2Back serves a very useful purpose.
