  • Fancy a game of hide and seek? We do, but to make things more interested, I'm hiding from CT's Production Team in the 2012 Fiat 500 TwinAir Plus in Windsor, UK. It's small, nippy, has a cracking 2-cylinder engine and Jennifer Lopez drives one. The question: will they find me or not?

    @adamsautoadvice Thanks Adam, glad you're enjoyed them. The whole process is around 50 "man hours". So it's no small feat. Props to our Production Team, Ed and Ethan!

    A masterpiece of a car design. Pure genuis. I can’t drive anything else, because when I do, I am bored as hell.

    Downsized to a 2 cylinder and you still need an eco-mode??

    It's got more character and is peppy thanks to being turbocharged. But it's NOT efficient on motorways, because you'll spend most of the time with your foot flat to the floor.

      What??? really?do you know anything about cars??I have got one and your are telling lies.i have done 1200km trips om my car and never ever I had problems driving on the highway and I am not afraid to say that highway is the twinairs real playground.crussing around 120km/h is not a problem and you still have a lot of power curve over.you and reviewer's like you are a disgrace

    My first car was a Fiat 500. This was in about 1964 and the engine was 499cc and completely different to the Fiat 500 now!

    One of my friends had the 0,9 Turbo! Really really fun car to drive, but man he had many problems with that engine..He ended up getting a 1,2 instead when they faceliftet it.. Much better and stronger engine.

    • @Candisa
      @Candisa 8 лет назад +2

      If you drive like an 80yo in eco mode, yes...
      The twinair engine invites you to drive sporty, and when you do, it consumes just as much fuel as a larger model with a slightly bigger 4cilinder turbo-petrol engine.
      You have to look at it for what it is: a nice peppy little stylish car to have some fun, as a second car, or for somebody who doesn't do a lot of long distances.
      If you look at it like that, it's one of the best cars out there...
      I considered a 500 twinair, but I realized it would make me hate it as much as I love it very soon...
      I decided to pass on the cute retro styling and funny engine sound and get me a Doblo T-jet instead.
      A lot less character, but very practical, surprisingly comfortable and pretty much the same price to buy and use...
      Off course it'll use more fuel when pushing it while hauling half the IKEA catalog, but the 500 can't do that...

      I will tell you the real consubtion.i have mine now for over 10years:city: around 6,6,5l/100km, highway:driving up to 110km/h;4.5,5l at most.and if the condition are very good I have gotten 4.2l/100km.that means that with a 35l gas tank you get up to +-700km range.now,you tell me which other car with a petrol engine do that?the twinair engine is the most underrated engine ever specially cause fiat has proven it really does work.and if you really want to have fun,just don't worry about consumption,this car is made to have fun!so you get the best of both worlds+de looks are great and women loves it!
