Capabilities and Range
The 2024 Fiat 500e is equipped with an electric powertrain with 118 horsepower and 162 lb-ft. maximum torque, and a 400V 42 kWh battery. As you can see, it isn’t built to compete with race cars, nor was it meant to! On the other hand, it is perfectly adapted to urban settings, making it the ideal car for your daily commute to the office, to school or to run errands. Moreover, it can reach 97 km/hr (0-60 mph) in 8.5 seconds.
An Abarth trim should also be available on this side of the Atlantic, offering even more power. Estimates seem to suggest over 150 horsepower, though that remains to be confirmed.
The electric Fiat 500 also offers an electric range estimated around 240 kilometers, which is perfect for urban settings. Moreover, there are 3- available driving modes:
- Normal — Normal driving features, with reactive accelerations and maximum torque.
- Range — Activates the one-pedal driving functionality, which optimises regenerative braking and helps increase your electric range.
- Sherpa — Energy efficiency is maximised so that you can either reach your destination or the closest charging station. By doing so, the vehicle’s top speed will be limited to 80 km/hr, while maximum power will be limited to 77 horsepower (57 kWh instead of the usual 87 kWh). Moreover, some features like air-conditioning and other auxiliary equipment will temporarily be deactivated in order to optimize energy efficiency.
Moreover, it will be possible for you to charge your 2024 Fiat 500e on a 120V (level 1) standard household outlet, on a 240V outlet (level 2) either public or installed at your home, or on a quick c.c. charging station (level 3); the latter will allow your electric Fiat 500 to recuperate up to 50 kilometers in just 5 minutes and up to 80 % charge in just a little over 30 minutes.
