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.

2023 Fiat Panda 4×40° Limited Edition

In 1980, Fiat presented a three-door hatchback designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro and Aldo Mantovani, the Fiat Panda. Three years later, the all-wheel drive variant arrives on the market, and on the 40th anniversary of its existence, Fiat presented the Fiat Panda 4×40° Limited Edition.

Almost 800,000 copies of the four-wheel drive version have been delivered since 1983, and Fiat says that this number represents about 10 percent of all 4×4 cars sold in the A segment.

The Panda 4×40° Limited Edition is finished in Ivory color, and is decorated with black side mirrors, red 4×40° markings with the silhouette of the original model, 4×40° badge on the B-pillar and two-tone 15-inch rims. Inside, the Ivory theme continues in combination with red stitching. The seats are trimmed in gray leather and recycled fabric, with 2023 embroidered on the backrest.

It is equipped with automatic air conditioning, heated and electric mirrors, rear parking sensors, light sensors, as well as rain sensors. There is also a 7-inch infotainment screen with DAB radio and support for Android Auto and Apple CarPlay systems. The shift lever and the steering wheel are covered in leather.

The car will be produced in 1,983 copies, which represents the year of production of the first model with all-wheel drive, and will be offered in France, Germany, Switzerland and Italy.

2023 Fiat 600e

Fiat will present a small electric crossover, the Fiat 600e, by the end of the year. And before the premiere, the Italian manufacturer shared a video of the exterior and interior of this model.

This is not the first time that Fiat has shown an electric SUV without camouflage, as we could see it last month during the filming of promotional shots. However, this time we have a better insight into this model from different angles.

Although some thought that the Fiat 600e would replace the larger 500X model, this will not happen because with the new generation, the 500X moves into the compact segment, leaving room for a new electric crossover. As expected, Fiat has kept the distinctive design of the 500 model, with some new additions, and the car will be built on the same platform as the Jeep Avenger. It will be powered by an electric motor with 154 hp (113 kW) and 192 lb-ft (260 Nm) of torque, and will be equipped with a 54 kWh battery.

In some markets, the Fiat 600 will also be offered with a 1.2L three-cylinder turbo engine with 100 hp (74 kW), which will be paired with a manual transmission.
