What's New For The 2019 FIAT 500e?

The brand new Fiat 500e is as punchy as ever, with its nimble steering and parallel-parking-friendly dimensions. Compared to other electric vehicles, this compact Fiat is known for its affordable price tag, offering drivers an environmentally friendly option without putting a dent in their monthly budgets. That said, the Fiat 500e is unchanged for 2019.

One Trim, but Packed with Features

The Fiat 500e is available as a single, nicely equipped trim model. It's incredibly convenient, giving you a long list of modern features. You'll love this hatchback's timesaving technology, including remote locking and unlocking features. The rearview camera and rear parking sensors make it easy to back into a space. The cruise control technology is a boon on road trips; it maintains the proper speed so you don't have to worry about getting a ticket. After dark, the auto-dimming rearview mirror reduces glare and enhances visibility.

This EV is also big on modern luxury. The manually adjustable heated front seats will keep you cozy, no matter how frosty the weather. There is also a premium vinyl upholstery and leather-wrapped steering wheel, which gives the cabin a sense of style. The steering wheel is tilt-adjustable, helping you find the perfect driving position.

It's also easy to stay connected in the 2019 Fiat 500e. It comes standard with Bluetooth® wireless connectivity, so you can use both phone and audio features as you cruise around town. The six-speaker Alpine audio system includes satellite radio, which means that you'll never be short on options. You can use the USB port to keep your favorite device charged and ready for action.

Good Power and Great for the Environment

Under the hood, this electric hatchback sports a battery-powered 83-kilowatt motor. It's good for up to 111 horsepower and 147 pound-feet of torque, creating a smooth ride around town and on the highway. The 500e uses a rechargeable 24-kWh lithium-ion battery to power the motor. The fully-charged battery is estimated to travel for up to 84 miles before it needs a recharge. According to Fiat, the battery takes 24 hours to fully recharge via a 120-volt outlet and just four hours with a Level 2 charger.

Fiat 500e Safety Features

Fiat's EV is stocked with airbags to keep you protected in the event of a collision. The 500e also offers a range of high-tech safety aids to help you actively avoid danger. The rear backup camera displays the area directly behind your Fiat on the cabin's central touchscreen, so you can spot any troublesome obstacles on your path. When you're stopped on a steep slope, the hill start assist feature keeps the brakes applied when you move your foot off the pedal, preventing you from rolling backward.
