Fiat has updated its 500 city car, with exterior tweaks and a new interior design.
Available in two body styles (hatchback and convertible), the 500 will be available in three trim levels: Pop, Pop Star and Lounge.
All models have LED daytime running lights, seven airbags and a five-inch Uconnect infotainment system with six speakers, aux-in/USB ports and steering wheel remote controls as standard equipment.
The Pop Star version in the UK adds air conditioning, body-colour mirror caps with defrosting function and 15-inch alloy wheels, while the Lounge version adds sophisticated features such as a panoramic glass sunroof, rear parking sensors, a chrome front grille, front fog lights, a leather-trimmed steering wheel and a Uconnect 5” Live touchscreen infotainment system with smartphone integration and numerous built-in apps to help users stay safely connected while on the move.
The engine line-up of the New 500 at launch includes a 0.9-litre TwinAir engine (85hp or 105hp) and a 1.2-litre 69hp engine. The two-cylinder engines boast exceptional performance – 90g/km for the 85hp engine and 99g/km for the 105hp unit – while new ‘Eco’ configurations of the 1.2 litre 69hp (available after the launch) will reduce emissions to 99g/km.
The 1.3-litre 16v Multijet II 95hp diesel will emit 89g/km and comply with Euro 6 standards when it goes on sale later in the year.
Fiat claims the New 500 benefits from 1,800 'detail changes', including new front LED daytime runing lights, a new colour selection and revamped dashboard.
