The Fiat 500e is one of the freshest and most easy-to-drive electric cars, but that does not mean it is perfect. The new 500e is eight inches longer and wider than the original, and the wheelbase is four inches longer. So there should be a little more space in the cabin. Stylish design tricks such as round LED front lights that are embedded in the bonnet or hidden door handles differentiate the new Fiat 500e electric car from its older predecessors.
The interior is kept in the retro design of its predecessor. There are optional smooth leather seats and a leather steering wheel, but in small places, the material such as cheap hard plastic and poor execution leaves a lot to be desired. The fold-out cup holder in the centre console is cleverly designed. On the other hand, the Fiat 500e electric car shines with a practical, deep shelf in the centre console and a large panoramic roof.
Depending on the chosen engine, the Fiat 500e electric car comes with two battery options: 23.8 kWh for the electric motor with 95 hp and 220 Nm, and 42 kWh for the electric motor with 118 hp and 220 Nm. In the 500e version with a 42 kWh battery (37.3 kWh net), the Fiat 500e can cover up to 314 kilometres. In the case of the Fiat 500e Cabrio version, the maximum range decreases to 303 kilometres.
