Thinking of getting a Fiat 500?

The style of the car

The Fiat 500 is a cute and compact three-door hatchback, a stylish car that’s big on personality and small on fuel consumption. It has an appealing retro look inside and out yet comes with a range of useful high-tech features.

How it drives

The Fiat 500 is perfectly suited to city driving thanks to its light steering and large windows that give a good view out. There’s even a ‘City’ mode which lightens the steering at the press of a button to make parking easier. The ride can be a bit bumpy but it’s generally comfortable and feels stable and secure even on faster roads. Different engines have been available over the years, all of them giving you enough power to keep up with traffic. All 500s sold since summer 2020 have a mild hybrid system that reduces fuel consumption and emissions but doesn’t have an electric-only mode. An all-new, all-electric version of the 500 went on sale in early 2021.

Fancy an inexpensive, economical and easy-to-drive used city car? Here’s our guide to 8 of the best city cars around.

The interior

The 500 is a very compact car but it has decent space for up to four adults. The boot is small but it gives you enough room for a week’s shopping or luggage for a weekend away. You sit quite high, which combines with the large windows to give you a good view out. The interior design is very distinctive, with a retro look and, on most versions, a dashboard that matches the colour of the exterior paintwork. The large, simple buttons are easy to use, while most versions come with useful features such as Bluetooth, cruise control and a touch-screen infotainment system.

Running costs and reliability

Few cars cost as little to run as the Fiat 500. All of its engines give you good fuel economy, and tax and insurance costs are low. The 500 has been around for a long time and has established a solid reputation for reliability, even if Fiat didn’t score well in the latest J.D. Power UK Vehicle Dependability Study.

How it compares with similar cars

The Fiat 500 is the smallest model in the Italian company’s range, sitting below the Tipo. Its retro styling and extensive personalisation options make it similar to the popular Mini Hatch, but it generally costs less to buy. There’s an open-top version with a sliding fabric roof called the 500C, while the Abarth 595 is a sportier, high-performance version of the 500. If you like the style of the 500 but want more practicality you should take a look at the Fiat 500X SUV and the Fiat 500L MPV.
