    Fiat 500E

    The 500e is Fiat’s pure-electric extension of its iconic, reborn city car, powered by a single electric motor driving the front wheels.

    Outputs of 87kW/220Nm are enough to make it an eager urban four-seat two-door runabout (Fiat says it can reach 100km/h from rest in a relatively rapid 9.0sec). But a before on-road costs price in excess of $50K makes it a purchase of the heart rather than the head.

    The line-up currently starts at $52,500 for the 500E LA Prima and ranges through to $52,500 for the range-topping 500E LA Prima.

    Fiat 500E Accessories

    Fiat 500e is finally equipped with some high-tech kit.

    There’s heated seats for the first time ever, for example, and there’s 10.25-inch central screen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and wireless charging.

    There’s a digital driver display, too, plus there’s faux-leather on the seats and dash, a panoramic glass sunroof and fancy push-button front doors (though with a mechanical back-up lever hidden in the door pockets should something go pear shaped).

    Outside, you’ll find 17-inch alloys, as well as LED lightning all around, including the DRLs, and there’s keyless entry and push-button start, too.

    Fiat 500E Engine

    A single front-mounted electric motor delivers the power in the 500e, with 87kW and 220Nm on offer. There’s the usual EV single-speed gearbox, too, with power sent to the front wheels.

    Fiat 500E Boot Space

    There's a small 185 litres of boot space on offer here, which isn't much. But you could also mount the argument that nobody is buying a Fiat 500e because they want something ready to tackle a run to Ikea.

    Fiat 500E Interior

    In the cabin, it’s definitely a more modern affair than in an ICE 500, with the big screen, the horizontal push-button gear selector, and nifty push-button door openers.

    Still, it’s all pretty familiar Fiat 500, only a little nicer, even if some of the plastics are far too hard and scratchy for a vehicle this expensive.

    Fiat 500E Speed

    The Fiat 500e will accelerate to 100km/h in 9.0secs, but it feels faster than that, owing to the way that electric vehicles deliver their power.

    Fiat 500E Wheel Size

    The Fiat 500E has a number of different wheel and tyre options. When it comes to tyres, these range from 205x445 R17 for Hatchback in 2025.

    Year Body Type Front Tyre Size Front Rim Rear Tyre Size Rear Rim
    2025 Hatchback 205x445 R17 — 205x445 R17 —
    2024 Hatchback 205x445 R17 — 205x445 R17 —
    2023 Hatchback 205x445 R17 — 205x445 R17 —

    Fiat 500E Seats

    The Fiat 500e is a strict four-seater, but even having that many adults on board would be a stretch, with the backseat unsurprisingly tight on space.

    It's a better story up the front, where passengers have enough room to get comfortable.

    Fiat 500E Range

    The Fiat 500e’s 42kWh battery provides a smallish 311km driving range on paper, but when we got in it was more like 290km at 96 per cent charged. A city car, then, rather than a long-distance hauler.

    When it does come time to charge, you’re set up for 85kW DC fast charging which should take you from zero to 80 percent in 35 minutes.
