Fiat 500
As we continue to wait for a redesigned Fiat 500, this vehicle's look remains the same for 2019. Last year, it introduced a 135-horsepower turbocharged engine paired with a manual or automatic gearbox. Also available as a cabriolet, the Abarth trim gives the Italian urbanite a bit more punch thanks to its 160-horsepower, turbocharged 1.4-litre engine and an exhaust that makes the car sound like a mini-Ferrari.
