New Abarth F595 gets a Formula 4 engine and vertically stacked tailpipes
There’s another new Abarth ‘Special’ Edition – the Abarth F595 – with a formula 4 engine and vertically stacked exhaust pipes. Costs from £20,305. We’re not entirely sure what Abarth has planned when the Fiat 500 is electric-only, but they’re certainly making the most of things with their take on Fiat’s 500 ahead of that […]
Abarth 695 Esseesse – a new limited-run of Abarth’s take on the Fiat 500
The Abarth 695 Esseesse arrives as a limited run Abarth 695, adding styling tweaks, reduce weight and more downforce.

Instead, it continues to make hugely fun performance models, […]
Fiat to go all ELECTRIC by 2030 – and at prices comparable to ICE cars
Fiat has announced it will build only electric cars by 2020, and that the EVs it produces will be comparable in price to ICE cars. We’re rather getting used to car makers declaring they are heading to the point where they will only build electric cars, and consign ICE cars to the history bin. It’s […]

Fiat Tipo gets a bit of a facelift, and there’s a BUTCH Fiat Tipo Cross too
The Fiat Tipo gets a bit of an update for the 2021 model and adds the Tipo Cross to the range with raised ride height and butch cladding. Two years ago, when Sergio Marchionne was still alive and at the helm of Fiat, he made it clear that the future for Fiat was city cars, […]
Fiat Panda celebrates 40 years with a bit of a TITIVATE
The Fiat Panda gets updated to celebrate its 40th anniversary, with cosmetic tweaks, new models and extra technology.

The full Fiat 500 Electric range will go on on sale in the UK in December, with prices starting from £19,995 for the entry-level hatch.

Following the arrival of the new electric Fiat 500e convertible in the UK, Fiat now puts the 500e Hatch on sale with prices starting at £26,995. Back in March, just before the world and his dog went in to lockdown, the Fiat 500e Convertible went on sale in the UK. And now it’s joined by […]

The new Fiat 500e arrives as a new Fiat 500 with an electric powertrain delivering 116bhp and a 42kWh battery good for a range of 199 miles. Fiat has had a bash at an electric Fiat 500 before, but it was a car Fiat felt they had to produce for regulatory issues in the US, […]
