Fiat 500
The little Fiat hatchback or cabriolet should soon be completely redesigned. In 2018 it offers a new 165-horsepower turbo engine and the choice between a manual and an automatic transmission, while the 500 Abarth version comes with 157 to 160 horsepower. A Uconnect infotainment system with a five-inch screen is standard, as is Bluetooth connectivity, while a navigation system and a sunroof are available on the options list.
