Fiat will modify its all-electric 500 to offer a hybrid configuration with a gasoline engine on the European market. Auto123 has details.
The all-electric Fiat 500e is launching here in North America this year, but it has been on sale in Europe in its current form since 2020. The affordably priced car is proving popular there because of its Lilliputian size, well adapted to the old continent’s urban areas. Last year, Fiat sold over 65,000 in Europe.
The recent decline in the growth of demand for EVs has led Fiat to make some adjustments. Namely, it will bring back a gasoline engine with the 500. It will do so by modifying the new 500e to accommodate a gas engine and create a hybrid version in the doing. The 1.0L 3-cylinder engine, which was offered with the regular 500, will be used along with an electric motor.
The price of the Fiat 500 Ibrida has not been announced, but analysts expect it to be well below that of the all-electric version. The EV starts at 29,000 euros in Europe , while the gas-powered version is priced at 18,000 euros.
