Fiat 500

On July 4, 2007 Fiat officialy launched the New fiat 500

The new 500 is a cute, playful compact small 3-door car with soft rounded styling.. It is 355cm long, 163cm wide, 149cm high, and has a wheelbase of 230 cm.

The Exterior:
The front combines the family feeling of the most recent Fiat models, with the distinctive elements of the first 500. For instance, you’ll notice features like the round upper headlights above and main beam lights below, as well as the familiar whiskers and logo.

On the side, the mid-line slopes slightly at the front giving the car an impression of sturdiness.
While the rear features a distinctive chrome handle reminiscent of the number plate light holder found on the original model, and similar in shape to that of a bicycle saddle.

The 500 is available with four different trim levels: Naked, Pop, Lounge, and Sport. Customers can choose also between 15 interior trims, 9 wheel options, 19 decals, and 12 body colours. There are over 500,000 different personalized combinations of the 500 that can be made by adding all kinds of accessories, decals, interior and exterior colours, and trims.

The Interior:
On the inside, the 500 offers a welcoming, protective environment for both the driver and passengers. This is largely due to the large ring bordering the entire inner space, the great attention to detail, quality materials used, and instruments that aren’t just beautiful to look at, but are also easy to use.

Chrome elements, two-tone seats, and a dashboard that perfectly matches the body colour combine with handy storage compartments and small details, like a fragrance dispenser, to create an environment that is both elegant and functional. And one that can comfortably accommodate four people.

Engines:
At launch three engines are available: two petrol and one diesel engine. All the engines meet the Euro5 standards. The 1.3 Multijet is equipped with a diesel particulate filter as standard. Despite the vehicle’s name implication, the lowest displacement is 1242 cc, notably higher than the previous 500s. However, a 900 cc two-cylinder engine has been planned, but despite this, it will still put it above both 500s.
