The Russian Za Rulyom (Behind the Wheel) magazine picks the best new vehicles every year in its Grand Prix awards. A total of 53 new models on the Russian market battled it out in 11 categories to be named Best Newcomer.

Voting in the nationwide Za Rulyom Grand Prix 2017 competition ran from 1 March through 15 April 2017. Over this time, the biggest and most competent judging panel for this tough task - that of the readers of Za Rulyom magazine and of the ZR.ru website - decided which nominees deserved to be named Best Newcomer of the Year and win the Golden Pegasus prize.

According to the over 15,000 readers who cast their votes, the Best Newcomer in the Commercial Vehicles and Pickups segment was the Fullback. The vehicle was appraised through online voting across three criteria: Equipment, Design and Practicality.

The accolade adds to the prize record of the Fiat Professional vehicle which already features the title of 'Pick-up Truck of the Year 2017' awarded by the readers of French '4x4 Magazine'.
