Fiat 500
The 500 quickly made a name for itself, proving that a car can be both hip and affordable. With several configurations and colours available, drivers have plenty of opportunity to personalize this modern city car. The convertible comes with an easy-to-activate power roof while the Sport version handles like a true athlete. A 101-hp 1.4L 4-cylinder engine is tasked with powering this little Fiat with strict instructions to keep fuel consumption down. An Abarth version will be coming soon.
