looks like fun car to drive. in any case, if you have a fast, powerful car in the city, you can't drive it to its full potential because roads are not made for it. To me it seems more fun to drive slow car fast, then fast one slow.
londo0 Very well said. Ive had a few cheap new small engine cars. They are fun round town, I don't go on motorways much but even then, most have coped well enough. Although lacking in torque at speed, I do think a lot of drivers forget thats what the gears are for, changing down etc to keep the car moving. We have become a nation of lazy drivers, everything with a turbo and instant power when pressing the accelerator. The point that makes me laugh is when people say ooh its not got enough power for overtaking on the motorway. Well, if you are already doing 70mph then WHY do you need to overtake anyone ? Ah, well what if you are coming up behind a truck doing 56mph ? Simple, you indicate in GOOD time, and pull out, and change down gear if need be to get a bit more pulling power. If you say a car is too slow for the motorway then you are a bad driver if you cant handle it haha
I've had my 500 1.2 S for around a year now. Performance has improved as the car has been run in, but still not fantastic. Keeps up with traffic perfectly fine but you need to be willing to work the gears a little more than in a slightly larger engined vehicle.
I hired the same car (2016 1.2L petrol) and agree, it's really slow & didn't smell good after being driven hard... It barely moves below 3k. The ride comfort wasn't particularly great considering the amount of body roll it has, steering was a little numb with a light spot in the center but the handling was surprisingly lively with a good front end that held on well, it even looses the rear a bit on roundabouts. Quite satisfying but safe to play with.
It's a very good city car (with this engine option) and a very cool looking little car. Not for motorway fast run...The interior seems very solid build and nice materials. Quite expensive...but more appealing than it's class competitors..
Fast with only 69 hp. In Brazil , the compact Fiat (Mobi, Uno, Palio and Punto) has: 73 hp and 75 hp ( 1.0 8v ) 85 hp and 88 hp ( 1.4 8v ) 115 hp and 117 hp ( 1.6 16v ) 130 hp and 132 hp ( 1.8 16v ) and 152 hp (1.4 16v T) These cars they are bi- fuel (gasoline and ethanol, except 1.4 16v T)
I have Ford Ka mk2 (the same platform and engine 1.2l 69hp with Fiat 500) and this isn't safety and fast car for speed 120 km/h + It's really good for fun city drive.
Alex Dragomirescu veo que la matricula es de españa :)..y en españa los motores arrancan desde 69 caballos el 1.2 . 95 el jtd y 105 el vicilindrico de gasolina . asi pues de donde es tu version? . por cierto me encanta!! estoy casi por comprarme uno !!!!!
I am loving the Gran Turismo music. Perfectly accents the video.

Who ever thinks these cars aren't nippy have too high expectations its no ferrari but for 69hp it moves trust me they aren't that slow ahha
that's not a twinair, that's a 1.2 with 69hp ^^
Is the speedometer from factory or an aftermarket upgrade for the 2015 model?
Of course it was. It was a rental car. No rental car company modifies cars as long as I know.
I am going to buy one, any suggestions guys? How does preform on bigger road trips and taht? Can someone help me with opinion?
bad, city car motorway it shakes

Nice engine but ive had two Abarth 500s, and they are superb fun to drive, so I wouldnt buy this one
Except tryna insure me in my dads abarth 595 would’ve cost 4 grand XD, this is the only option
Km or mph?
Km/h
Fast with only 69 hp.
In Brazil , the compact Fiat (Mobi, Uno, Palio and Punto) has:
73 hp and 75 hp ( 1.0 8v )
85 hp and 88 hp ( 1.4 8v )
115 hp and 117 hp ( 1.6 16v )
130 hp and 132 hp ( 1.8 16v ) and
152 hp (1.4 16v T)
These cars they are bi- fuel (gasoline and ethanol, except 1.4 16v T)
+Denis Salvá ideal car for city use!
Yes, but they call the 1.4 Uno, the 1.6 Palio and the 1.8 Bravo SPORTING. Sluggish and bogus.
I have Ford Ka mk2 (the same platform and engine 1.2l 69hp with Fiat 500) and this isn't safety and fast car for speed 120 km/h + It's really good for fun city drive.
Dacie..🤷🏻♂️💩😂✌🏻

Then it should be the 69hp....it was a rented car. smallest engine...
I would have starded to cry, left the car on the side of the road and would walk in the rain lol
+Levin Be :))
I don't think it's bad for 69PS
Compratela per la affidabilità del motore
I had 192kph out mine!
Also my '11 panda ( the boxy model) does 190km/h with the 1.2 69hp engine
To wek
Che polmone micidiale
