2018 Fiat 500, 500X, 500L, and 500e Model Comparison
The standard vehicle of the Fiat catalog is the Fiat 500, currently in its 2018 model. However, it’s clear to see that, much like the Volkswagen Golf and its family of vehicles, the Fiat 500 functions as a template for other Fiat model evolutions. There’s the original Fiat 500 compact hatch, the Fiat 500X compact crossover, the Fiat 500L SUV, and the Fiat 500e electric compact.
While our above summation is a quick overview of the differences between the Fiat 500 family of vehicles, there’s a lot more to go over. Therefore, let’s take a more in-depth look at how each Fiat 500 variation changes from the original 2018 Fiat 500 build.
