The iconic Fiat 500 is a legendary automobile. In Italy, the cinquecento is considered to be the “people’s car.” Since 1957, more than 6 million units have been mass-produced. The subcompact vehicle is even part of the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York City.
To bridge the past with the present, engineers recently developed a battery-powered version of the 500. It’s the first fully electric Fiat designed from the ground up.
