Stellantis-owned Italian carmaker Fiat has announced a bigger sister for its 500e city car. The five-door 600e subcompact is designed for city life, but ready for weekend adventures beyond the city limits.
The 500e’s sibling has a similar-looking front face, with Fiat treating it to a “sharper and more assertive” expression plus fresh LED lighting. Elsewhere there’s glossy black detailing, chrome accents and an Italian flag on the rear bumper to cement its identity.
Autonomous Emergency Braking will be applied when cyclists and pedestrians are detected while on the move, the vehicle monitors driver awareness levels, a 180-degree rear-view camera for parking ease and an electronic parking brake too.
In front of the steering wheel is a 7-inch digital instrument cluster, there’s a 10.25-inch customizable display with support for CarPlay and Android Auto, audio is served up via a six-speaker sound system, and connected services include TomTom navigation, voice command support and Uconnect services.
There are USB Type A and USB-C ports available for topping up mobile gadgetry, plus a wireless smartphone charger, and the vehicle comes with keyless entry courtesy of a proximity sensor. There’s also a hands-free powered liftgate to help overloaded shoppers get their purchases safely inside.
The Fiat 600e is being offered in a standard RED edition, and a more premium La Prima version – though pricing is not available for either, and Stellantis is also keeping mum on international availability as well.
