“The Fiat 500 maintains the old car’s fashion accessory image, but it’s also a small EV with usable range, the latest charging tech and crucially it’s offered at a very tempting price. The less expensive and likely more popular hatchback version could score an extra half star when we try it.”

“It has been a long time since Fiat has been at the top of its game, but with this new electric version of the 500, it has finally produced a winner. The exterior, as well as the interior design, are still as recognisable and cute as ever, but despite the retro bent look thoroughly modern. It’s also a convincing prospect to own and to drive.”

“Redlining a petrol Fiat 500 through every gear and hearing the chirrup of its tyres on roundabouts as you dodged through city traffic used to be one of the purest and most underrated driving experiences going. Somehow Fiat has translated that eagerness into an electric model.”

“Bellissimo! In these dark and difficult times it’s great to drive a car that instantly puts a big smile on your face. But the new all-electric Fiat 500 brought me an automotive ray of welcome – if socially-distanced – Mediterranean sunshine and warmth.”

“Would I buy this budget Fiat 500 Action model and could I live with its range? In a word, no. I’d pay more and go for the 500 that can manage almost 200 miles. You never know when you might have to make a long journey and a range of under 100miles would be a real pain.”

“If you’re after an electric city car with iconic good looks then the New Fiat 500 with a relatively long official range for its segment and the ability to charge up more quickly than many of its electric supermini competitors, is a good bet for EV buyers in the city car class. Just don’t plan on putting anyone in the back or carrying lots of luggage.”

“The Fiat 500 EV is a charming little car, has a decent range between charges if you go for the range-topping model and has a well-appointed interior. It might be noisy on the motorway and the rear seats are a bit of a squeeze, but if you want a small car that is perfect for use around town, the electric 500 should be on your shortlist.” (Sam Phillips)

“Just as previous Fiat 500s dating back to the 1950s have been great city cars, the Fiat 500 Electric excels around town. The Action trim sets a new level for EV affordability, although the meagre battery range means you could not buy it intending to go more than short distances from your home. Other versions are more flexible, even if none of them are fast. The Fiat 500 Electric is a great little EV for a keen price, ideal for young urban trendies or as a second family vehicle. Highly recommended.” (James Morris)

“The Fiat 500’s average driving range won’t be a problem for those who don’t venture far out of town, and it will liven up even the most mundane journeys with its nippy performance and agile handling. However, its stingy passenger space and tiny boot, as well as other niggles with visibility and ease of use, mean it falls short of rival small EVs.”
