Our expert take on Fiat 500e drivability.
It’s powered by a single, front-mounted electric motor producing 87kW of power and 220Nm of torque. It’s mated with a 42kWh lithium-ion battery pack.
Fiat claims the 500e can do the 0-100km/h sprint in 9.0 seconds.
Those wanting a more powerful EV hatch will need to opt for the Abarth 500e, which has been confirmed for a late 2023 launch.
It features the same 42kWh battery and 85kW DC fast-charging but a more powerful 114kW/235Nm electric motor, slashing the 0-100km/h time to a claimed 7.0 seconds.
Abarth has also programmed a more distinctive propulsion sound and a choice of three driving modes.
