Fiat 500
This dapper urbanite wins people over with its silhouette and unique cabin styling. Add to that the fact that the lineup includes a cabriolet and you have a product that has what it takes to persuade those on the hunt for an original, affordable car. Offered in a multitude of colours, the basic engine is a 1.4-litre 101-horsepower four-cylinder, but performance-car fans can opt for the Abarth version and its turbocharged, 160-horsepower four.
