2024 Fiat Seicento

At the beginning of July, Fiat premiered the new 600e, the latest zero-emission model, and now production has begun. Although with the old name (Seicento – 600), the new model has been transformed into a subcompact crossover inspired by the smaller Fiat 500e.

Fiat Seicento is built on the e-CMP2 platform like the Jeep Avenger, and they are powered by the same 156 hp (115 kW) electric motor, which is enough for the crossover to reach 100 km/h (62 mph) in 9 seconds. that’s not the only thing these two cars share, there’s a 54 kWh battery, and Fiat promises the e600 will have a range of more than 400 kilometers (WLTP). If it is used only in the city, one charge should provide a range of 600 kilometers.

With a length of 4.17 meters, the new fully electric Fiat brings with it an airy and spacious passenger cabin for five people as well as a luggage space of 360 liters. Inside, the 7-inch digital instrument panel and 10.25-inch display stand out.

When it comes to the price, Fiat announced at the presentation that the Seicento will cost 35,950 euros, and in combination with the La Prima equipment package, 40,950 euros.

Fiat 500e Gelateria Edition is the ice cream vehicle of the future

Italy is famous for its delicacies, especially ice cream, and the old ice cream vans, powered by diesel engines, pollute the environment significantly. So Fiat found a solution for the future by introducing its sweet little concept car, the 500e Gelateria Edition, which could be the ice cream vehicle of the future.

The concept is based on the Fiat 500e Convertible and comes without a passenger seat and rear seat. Instead, there are two ice cream refrigerators with a capacity of 15 liters, as well as storage for cones, spoons and bowls. The vehicle can store enough ice cream for 300 people. During sunny days, while waiting for their ice creams, customers can take shelter under a small awning that provides shade.

It is finished in a combination of light blue and white, reminiscent of classic Italian ice cream shops from the fifties. Inside, the driver’s seat is also upholstered in light blue and white leather, and the Ivory dashboard features a centrally located touch screen and “Gelateria” lettering on the left side. Although it is a small car, it still provides enough space for two folding deckchairs.

Old ice cream vans are banned in some city areas, because their engines have to run all the time so that the refrigerators and other appliances in the van can be powered by electricity, producing significant amounts of CO2.

The new all-electric Fiat 600

After discontinuing the production of the Fiat 600 more than a decade ago, the Italian car manufacturer Fiat has unveiled an electric successor to the popular city car.

At first glance, the exterior design resembles the electric model 500e. However, the new Seicento, which is 4.17 meters long, brings with it an airy and spacious passenger cabin for five people as well as a luggage space of 360 liters. Inside, the 7-inch digital instrument panel and 10.25-inch display stand out.

When it comes to the powertrain, the car will be powered by an electric motor with 156 hp (115 kW), which is enough for the crossover to reach 100 km/h (62 mph) in 9 seconds. Also, a hybrid version was announced, which should be available from the middle of next year.

The new Fiat 600 is equipped with a 54 kWh battery, which is sufficient for a range of over 400 kilometers, while when used only in the city, one charge should provide more than 600 kilometers. It takes less than 30 minutes to charge the battery up to 80 percent on 100-kilowatt chargers.

The price could be a negative surprise considering that this city car costs 35,950 euros, and in combination with the La Prima equipment package, 40,950 euros. That’s significantly more expensive than the Nissan Leaf, which costs around 25,000 euros.
