In this review, Doug DeMuro takes a deep dive into the 2024 Fiat 500e, a quirky electric car designed for city living. With its unique features like playing "Deck the Halls" upon shutdown, unconventional door handle buttons, and Italian heritage inscriptions scattered throughout, the Fiat 500e exudes charm and character. Despite its modest 120 horsepower and 150 miles of range, this electric Fiat aims to cater to urban dwellers seeking a simple, affordable driving solution. The trim levels, such as "Inspired by Beauty" and "Inspired by Music," add a touch of elegance and individuality to this compact city car.
The exterior design of the Fiat 500e is unmistakably cute and iconic, featuring distinctive badging, circular lights, and a compact yet identifiable shape. Inside, the Fiat logo is proudly imprinted on the seats, complemented by red accents that match the trim level. Practicality meets style in the interior, with a configurable center screen, traditional climate control buttons, and a surprisingly spacious center console offering ample storage options. Technology-wise, the Fiat 500e boasts features like cruise control, automatic emergency braking, and a high-quality backup camera, enhancing the overall driving experience.
While the Fiat 500e may not deliver the thrilling performance of its predecessor, it shines as a nimble and efficient electric car tailored for city commutes and errands. Despite limited rear seat and cargo space, the Fiat 500e compensates with easy-to-fold seats and additional storage under the floor. Overall, the Fiat 500e stands out as a charming and practical electric vehicle, emphasizing style, simplicity, and affordability for urban drivers looking for a distinctive ride in the city streets.
