My dad randomly came home with an orange 500e back in 2013/14. It was honestly so fun to zip around with. It would skirt its tires under hard acceleration
What's the point of this car? Who is Fiat's target audience? Its not efficient as it only offers 149 miles range which means real range is around 100 mile. Is it a fun car? Well, its only 117 hp. So, why will anyone buy this? People buy Toyota Corolla as its efficient and buy BMW/Mercedes/Audi as they are fun. This is neither.
The car manufacturers marketing departments do this all the time they don’t bring to the market what the people want , they will market the one model then say “ they are not selling well in the USA “ well if they sell the one with more power and a convertible they will find that they probably will sell well” come on Fiat give us what we want! Be the first electric Affordable convertible in America!
You can get a used 124 Fiat Spider as a second car for around 17k now. That car is a modern classic. This is a real tough sell at the price. But who know in a few years.
I had a 2017 Fiat Spider for 4 years & nothing but problems since the engine was made in Italy & installed in Japan by Mazda, Instead buy a Mazda MX 5 that is completely made in Japan. In 2021 I bought a Mazda MX 5 & has been completely trouble-free for over 3 years. Remember FIAT stands for Fix It Again Tony is the truth.
@@mixedbyfiatcat For sure but, The newer models like my 2017 124 Spider were discontinued because they had so many problems & lack of sales just like all the Fiats the last few years. If the Fiats were well-made people would keep buying them. If a car has good quality Americans would continue to buy the Fiat brand but Fiat has had terrible sales why? Poor quality maybe?
It's not, because it was made primarily for the EU market as a city car. That does NOT make it a compliance car. There isn't much range you can get out of a small car. It's not really meant to be more American roads like the last gas one was that I own and love.
Cool looking little car, however, Fiat missed an opportunity here. They should have made a high performance version or something like that, to stand out more.
I don't know who the target market is at $37K. This car offers no advantages over any other car except it looks unique. You can buy 5 of the older cars for the price of one of these. I drive the previous gen 500e I wouldn't spend more than $10k to 12k on a new one. I would buy a used model 3 any day over this
This is what more EVs should be. Not pickups and sports cars. Too bad they priced it so high no one will want it. Hopefully other brands don't consider it a lesson learned when this doesn't sell.
Yes the revised design works for me , I like it! I think most people will like it also . I’m thinking this is a nice car to run around town in with the 149 miles per charge should work for most people. I’m going to wait to see if they bring the convertible here to the US . I think if they did it would sell nicely . We live in South Carolina so the convertible will be nice to have since it’s hot here the 149 will be like 100 miles a charge with the A/C running all the time but even a 100 miles per charge will be OK for most around town .
I have one across the pond in the UK. I use it as a second car saving my VW Caddy Maxi 7-seater diesel for longer trips. Bought the fiat 2 years old with 2,000 miles on the clock. 500e Red. Cost me half the price of a new one £13,000 GBP. Yes, the back seats are dangerous for adults. There was no option of that third suicide door available in Europe. The back seats do not fold flat because of the batteries under the floor lifting the seats too high. Bad design. I can wait 2 years for the Hybrid version of this new shape which might iron out the faults. SAME REVIEW I GAVE TO ANOTHER USA TESTER.
Well Stellantis has paid a total of 190 million dollars in fines for missing fuel economy standards. So they don't care if they sell any of these things in the US. It's here for one reason, to lower the CAFE number.
How can you not just come out and say this is an overpriced POS. Who exactly is this junk supposed to for? For $37K, you could get a very nice used Mustang Mach E. The depreciation will be catastrophic.
People who want something different, something odd and unique. And the rebates offered and offers from Fiat bring the price down substantially. It’ll be a huge hit in college towns and big cities.
Lets be honest.. i rather have a new car than a used car. This is perfect for my needs. Also most electric cars nowadays cost anywhere from 50-60k. Thats ridicioulous. Atleast this Fiat is more "affordable" compared to electric cars nowadays.
I had original fiat 500e 2015 that I bought used in 2018 and had for 3 years. This new Fiat 500e brand new is not worth more than 20K TOPS. No one in their right mind would pay 37K for this. You can get a brand new Model 3 Long Range for $33K after 7.5K instant incentive. Tesla is miles ahead of Fiat in every single category. I had original fiat 500e and bought a 21 model 3 and there's absolutely no comparison. This 500e will absolutely flop in the states.
They would have brought the best engine in their lineup 2cyl Multiair 1.0L turbo and upgraded 6std transmission and sold even more 🎉 but the CEO does not serve
Maybe doesn't like it on a vehicle but likes the color itself 🤔 I love green but don't care for green cars. So maybe that's what he was getting at. Or maybe vice versa, he likes the color on the car but not individually
I used to like fiat, small light, easy handle.... but come on, this is 2024 EV now, no AWD, less than 150hp.... less 200mile range......and cost 40k😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒Not beauty at allllllll 👎🏻
I love how they keep the style, and heritage of one of the most shitty cars to come out in the last decade. Chrysler Fiat has been a match made in hell.
Gayest and crappiest car out there. Guarantee you in 20 years or so, the company will go bankrupt. $37k for that?! I rather get Tesla 3 as Tesla is dominating the EV world with the largest reliable charging station nationwide. Tesla screen is much larger. Comes with Netflix, RUclips, twitch and TikTok. Drive and park on demand when you put foot on acceleration and toggle D or R. You don’t need to press any start button. Huge cargo space from trunk and frunk. Power seats. Extra entertainment screen for rare passengers. Italian just being cheap with this build. Asking for a lot but offer less. 😂
It's cute, but too feminine looking for my taste (maybe it's the colour here). Plus, it's overpriced by $8k-$10k. It would be great for a city runabout, but I'd rather buy another brand, used, with twice the range, for less money.

The only one cheekier and more inspired by beauty than the 2024 Fiat 500e is Sofyan.
Lol.
GYATT 500
😂😂
I am just here for car reviews and not some gay fantasy. 😂
@@ju4121why not both?😂
This type of vehicle is what we need more of.
Less of*
@@adeebh1238 like it or not, EVs are the future.
@@jackdaniels2905 doesn’t mean I have to like it
+ I think it’s gonna take much longer than believed
Small cars, yes!
Just paint it yellow and paint the the turn signal trim red and you got your self a Pikachu.😂
Dang this color makes it look girlier and more fabulous than the Lexus rose gold
They need to make an Abarth
It already exists here in europe
There is an Abarth version already out here in Europe
The abarth version is coming a few months later to the U.S
My dad randomly came home with an orange 500e back in 2013/14. It was honestly so fun to zip around with. It would skirt its tires under hard acceleration
When I hear 500E, I automatically think of the Mercedes W124 500E from the early 90s.
Now that was a car. Very Mafia in blue/black metallic.
37k for only 149 miles? Nah😅
I know hahaha what are they thinking haha
exactly😒😒not that beauty 😅
These people wonder why fiats fail
City EV.

Fiat needs to import the 500E convertible to the US.
This’ll be a huge hit in college towns and tight urban environments. Plus, Fiat is already offering very good specials on them.
The car manufacturers marketing departments do this all the time they don’t bring to the market what the people want , they will market the one model then say “ they are not selling well in the USA “ well if they sell the one with more power and a convertible they will find that they probably will sell well” come on Fiat give us what we want! Be the first electric Affordable convertible in America!
Not to mention these things aren't priced competitively at all for the U.S. market. As least the last generation of 500 was VERY competitively priced.
I love both cars 😊 I wish we could get a gas version and a high performance version also . Small vehicles is where it’s at 🙌🏾 my opinion 😑
I actually like Fiat, I could just never be crazy enough to purchase one! hopefully now that it is electric it will be a little more reliable.
Owner of a 500 abarth for 11 years. Got 145k miles. No major problems.They are reliable as long as you don't skip on the maintenance.
It's cute :D
But it'll probably implode and disintegrate in any accident with the mammoth SUVs on the road today
Sounds like you shouldn’t be driving because of the fact that you’re even mentioning hitting bigger cars 😂
@@naveenthemachine you can only do so much for yourself to be safe lol. Other folks is out of your control
for its size it a safe car.

Are your ray bans polarized? I don't see the letter p after the logo rayban. Nice review of the fiat. Will they make an abarth version?
So basically this car in yellow is a Pikachu on wheels ☺️
This is a compliance car. Nothing more.

It’s really cool looking, I just don’t want to drive something quite that small. Hond civic is about as small as I get!
Beautiful.
Good luck getting it fixed. Plus, you get into an accident, they might as well just dig a hole and drop you in, car and all.
it's a pretty safe car for its size.

love

37k for a fiat electric vehicle I don’t think so

Wonder if they can bring the abarth version
I’m rooting for FIAT but did I hear him say it has Drum brakes in 2024/25
2024 Fiat 500E Inspired by Beauty Special Edition Coupe Hatchback!
Electric so it might be the first somewhat reliable Fiat. Time will tell but probably better off waiting for the next Bolt.
If you own a ranch the 500e makes a good electric cart for the runabout. 😅
“Sadly doesn’t offer AWD”
I really doubt the demographics would get that thing in a situation that needs awd
It better has fast charging. I cant imagine standing next to this while it charges slowly. 😅

E-Abarth version is out in EU. not available in the US, yet.

@@AAPLGUY I just got a 2024 Polestar 2 dual motor long range for $400 a month on a 27 month lease. $0 out of pocket.
It's for kids who just passed their driving test and need a small car for University.
This interior is like the epitome of what Stellantis is, it’s like too cheap for the price.
The screen lag on the "speedometer" was alarming. No excuse for that in 2024. And the lag is likely only going to get worse as the tech ages.

Wow this car is a LADY, she's very beautiful
I love the color but not the price
I can think of 101 better options for 37k 🤷♂️
Nah I’m good on this
In west palm fiat dealer want 5k down for 2 year lease 🫠
THE HEADLIGHT ARE UGLY..THEY ARE LIKE THE SLEEPY EYES OF GARFIELD
For 37K, I'd pick a Mazda Miata ND3 RF.
Nah
Or just get a Tesla lmao. About double the range and twice the room. What on earth...
Why "city car"? Why a car that's only got enough range for a city when people want a car to get OUT of the city? Computer says "No".
Nice looking lil package 😁
my fiat says made in Mexico lol
162 miles…….
These EVs are still just too darned expensive for what you get.
Cool little fiat-500 but Ev 😂
looks pretty gay (no offense).

Overpriced Italian junk.
What such a ignorant statement to make.
Love when people say no offense as though it nullifies the offensive statement. 😂
