The First Fiat 500e Hits US Shores: A Sold-Out EV with European Pedigree

 


The Fiat 500e, the first all-electric vehicle destined for the United States, has been launched at the Mirafiori Assembly Plant in Turin, Italy. The two-door, battery-electric vehicle (BEV) is the lightest passenger BEV in the market, with an estimated range of 149 miles. The Fiat 500e is powered by a 42 kilowatt-hour (kWh) battery and a Level 2 (11-kW) charge time of four hours and 15 minutes (30 amp). The vehicle is designed to be unmistakably FIAT, with style and sustainability at its core.


The 500e has registered more than 185,000 units worldwide since its launch, playing a relevant role in the green transition of cities across the globe. In Europe, the 500e is leading the electric city-car market for the second year in a row, ranking first in Italy, Germany, Spain, Belgium, and Austria.

FIAT is introducing the Fiat 500e to North America with the (RED) Edition, a chic model partnered with (RED) to introduce the coolest, most ethical car in urban mobility. The suggested retail price for the 2024 Fiat 500e is $32,500, not including $1,595 destination, and it is positioned to take advantage of government tax rebates in participating states. Every Fiat 500e includes a Level 2 charging wall unit or public charging credits through Free2move Charge, Stellantis' 360-degree ecosystem, delivering seamless charging and energy management to address all electric-vehicle customer needs.
