2019 FIAT 500e: What's New, Specs & Features

About the 2019 FIAT 500e
First U.S. 500e generation, final model year before the car left the U.S. market and later returned as a redesigned 2024 model.
FIAT positioned the 500e as an emissions-free take on its classic small city car: easy to park, quick to respond at low speeds, and heavy on personality. The brand leaned on Italian design, urban friendliness, and fun electric driving more than long-distance practicality. Against larger EVs, the 500e’s appeal was its tiny footprint, distinctive look, and upscale-for-its-size equipment rather than maximum range or cargo space.
FIAT positioned the sole 500e trim as a well-equipped electric city car with quick response at low speeds and distinctive Italian styling. It paired an 83-kW electric motor and 24-kWh battery with heated synthetic-leather front seats, a 5-inch navigation touchscreen, Alpine audio, a rearview camera, and rear parking sensors.
