The 2024 Fiat 500e Now Available in the United States

Fiat's 500e, a compact hatchback, is set to make a comeback in the United States after a prolonged absence, positioning itself as the lightest electric vehicle on American roads, accompanied by a price tag of $34,095.

A key highlight of the 2024 Fiat 500e lies in its weight, tipping the scales at just over 1,360 kg. This distinction earns it the title of the lightest passenger Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) in the US market. Fiat attributes this "featherweight" status to their commitment to creating a compact and efficient electric car, emphasizing the contrast with the larger size and bigger batteries of most other EVs available in the US.

    

The previous iteration of the 500e bid farewell to American shores in 2019, offering a modest 135 km range on a single charge. In contrast, the new 500e boasts an EPA-estimated range of 240 km, nearly doubling its predecessor's range though some may still find it less than impressive.

Charging options for the 500e include support for up to 85 kW DC charging, enabling an 0-80% battery charge in approximately 35 minutes. Utilizing a Level 2 (11 kW) charger extends the charging time to around 4.25 hours. Fiat sweetens the deal by providing buyers the option of a free home charger or charge credits through Free2Move Charge.

Under the hood, the 2024 Fiat 500e features 118 hp and 220 Nm of torque, propelling the front wheels and achieving a zero to 100 km/h time of 9 seconds. The Sherpa mode, prioritizing range, reduces power output to 76 hp and limits the top speed to 80 km/h.

Fiat has integrated features to replicate the coasting sensation of traditional internal combustion engine cars and a regenerative braking effect that facilitates one-pedal driving.

    

Despite the familiar aesthetic with split headlights and flush-fit door handles, the 2024 Fiat 500e is an entirely new car built on a dedicated EV platform. The interior receives a modern upgrade, showcasing a body-color dash panel paying homage to the 1950s original, a 10.25-inch infotainment touchscreen, and higher quality materials. The car's digital greeting tune's enduring entertainment value, however, remains to be seen.

Unlike its predecessor, limited to California and Oregon, the new Fiat 500e will be available throughout the entire United States. The purchasing process is streamlined, with customers able to place orders through the Fiat Live Store. The initial offering includes the 500e RED Edition, featuring a stylish red paint job and 17-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels, with a portion of the proceeds supporting charitable causes backed by RED.

With a competitive starting price of $34,095, the 2024 Fiat 500e presents a compelling choice for those seeking an EV, inviting potential buyers to explore detailed reviews for more information.
