Stelantis brand Fiat has unveiled its retro-styled 600e compact electric SUV that delivers a range of about 400km on a single charge. The new Fiat compact all-electric SUV comes with a good mix of retro features combined with a decent spec sheet.
The Fiat 600e has the same WLTP range and 115kW power as the Jeep Avenger. It is slightly larger than the Fiat 500 but it is unclear where the electric motor of the 600e sits. It is likely a front-wheel-drive EV given that it shares the same platform and similar performance specs with the Jeep Avenger. It is noted that the Jeep Avenger does not have an AWD option. The Fiat 600e is shorter and narrower, but slightly taller than the 2022 Volkswagen Golf. It however packs sufficient power to place it in SUV terrain and comes with a 54kWh battery.
The Fiat 600e can accelerate from 0-100km/h in 9 seconds which reflects Fiat’s focus on comfort and convenience ahead of pace. The e-SUV comes equipped with lots of safety and other features that guarantee a comfortable drive inside the EV. These include a hands-free tailgate, 180-degree rearview camera, blind spot detection, and Level 2 assisted driving features on some trim options. The battery pack of the Fiat 600e can be charged up to 80% in just 30 minutes using 100kW fast charging.
Fiat has begun receiving pre-orders for the 600e and the car is priced under the $40,000 MSRP range. The Fiat 600e is entering a field where some high-performance models like the Hyundai Ionic 5 and Volvo EX30 are already holding sway.
