New Year, New Car - Fiat 500X

Fiat have continued to expand their range of 500 based models following the success of the 500L and moved towards offering a larger city car that has off road capabilities with the new 500X.

2 X Style

The new 500X comes in 2 different styles: City and Off Road. Both models come with their own distinctive body styles, this is just the first level of customisation available to you as both models are available in 12 colours; 4 pastel shades (Passione Red, Ice White, Art Grey and Cinema Black), 5 metallic (Toscana Green, Venezia Blue, Magnetic Bronze, Argento Grey, Fashion Grey), 1 matt (Matt Magnetic Bronze) and 2 three-coat options (Amore Red and Amalfi Yellow).




X-traordinary Performance

The 500X comes with 3 different engines to choose from which includes the new 1.4 Turbo MultiAir II 140 HP that Fiat have labelled “One of the best petrol engines in the world in terms of its emission/power ratio thanks to MultiAir technology, which enhances performance levels while at the same time lowering fuel consumption and emission levels”. Other engines include a Dual Clutch 6 Speed Automatic (not available at launch) and a 9 Speed Automatic that is exclusive to the Fiat 500X.

1.4 Turbo MultiAir II 140 HP
  • Displacement : 1.368 cm³
  • Power : 140 HP (103 kW) at 5,000 rpm
  • Torque : 230 Nm (23.5 kgm) at 1,750 rpm
  • Top speed : 118 Mph
  • Acceleration from 0 to 62 mph: 9.8 seconds
  • 6-speed manual transmission or twin-clutch 6-speed automatic transmission that provides an even quicker response.

NeXt Level Technology

Fiat really has packed as much as they can into the Fiat 500X when it comes to driver convenience and assistance.

There is the new Mode Selector that allows the drive to choose from 3 different modes depending on driving conditions and performance: Auto – everyday driving, ensure maximum fuel efficiency and comfort. Sport – a more dynamic driving style that transforms the 500X into a more responsive and energetic experience. All Weather – when the weather takes a turn for the worse the 500X can increase traction to give you greater peace of mind.



Dual zone climate control helps keep the cabin comfortable for everyone with separate temperature controls for the driver and the passenger.



The comfort pack is an option that allows you no hassle, keyless entry to the car, key less engine start and lumbar support on the drivers seat. Dynamic Safety Pack adds Blind Spot Assist which warns the driver of any vehicles in their blind spot when changing lanes, Brake Control that is able to recognise potential collisions and apply the brakes if the driver fails to act and also a Rear Camera gives you greater visibility when reversing via the Uconnect™ system.



Uconnect™ is the new 5” Display from Fiat that can interact with major social networking sites, webradio, music, new in real time and live traffic updates which does require a data enabled smartphone to operate.
