Fiat 500L
The 500L is all-new for 2014. Built on a much larger platform than the 500, it offers an airy and roomy interior loaded with Italian flair. The 160-hp and 170 lbs.-ft. turbocharged 1.4L MultiAir engine is borrowed from the 500 Abarth. Power is sent to the front wheels via a six-speed manual gearbox or an optional dual-clutch automatic, also with six cogs. The Pop, Sport, Trekking and Lounge trims are offered in a multitude of interior and exterior colour combinations.
