Fiat’s 500 family is gaining yet another member. Called 500X, the new arrival is a small crossover that shares its underpinnings with the recently-announced Jeep Renegade.
A multitude of specification choices means buyers will be faced with lots of decisions. For starters, the 500X is being produced in two distinct flavours: one has an urban theme, while the other is aimed at those who want a more adventurous vibe. Twelve paintwork shades and eight wheel styles should ensure plenty of personalisation opportunities.
And then there are the numerous powertrain configurations. The engine line-up comprises four petrol and three diesel units, which can be variously matched with five-speed manual, six-speed manual, six-speed dual-clutch and nine-speed automatic transmissions. Furthermore, in addition to a regular front-wheel drive set-up, Fiat is offering ‘Traction Plus’ front-wheel drive and an intelligent part-time all-wheel drive system.
Available equipment is set to include a rear reversing camera, blind spot warning, DAB radio, Beats Hi-Fi audio and the Uconnect touchscreen-controlled infotainment system that incorporates Bluetooth and satellite navigation.
The Fiat 500X is scheduled to arrive at UK dealers during the second quarter of 2015. Detailed specifications and prices are going to be confirmed closer to its launch.
