New Car: Fiat 500X 2018 review

Описание: New Car: Fiat 500X 2018 review

The 500X’s design changes are few and far between, with only some very minor alterations of the front and rear bumpers on both Urban and Cross-badged models. LED headlight and tail-light clusters are now available, too.

The interior remains colourful and retro-inspired, using body coloured gloss plastics for the dashboard surfacing. Fresh interior finishes are offered, plus a new steering wheel and revised instruments, and while the infotainment screen remains the rather fuzzy seven-inch unit found in the old car, it’s now complemented with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as standard.

Driver assistance features have been expanded to bring the 500X up to date. Traffic sign recognition and lane keep assist are equipped on all models. Blind spot detection, automatic emergency braking and adaptive cruise control can be added as options.

The big news is found under the bonnet; the diesels have been discontinued, replaced by a pair of new petrol engines. The new 1.0-litre and 1.3-litre ‘Firefly’ engines are the same all-aluminium units found in the updated Jeep Renegade.

The 1.0-litre engine won’t be available in the entry-level Urban car pictured here, instead it is reserved for the slightly pricier City Cross model. While it felt a little strained in the heavier, boxier Renegade, it feels much more at home in the sleeker Fiat 500X. In fact, it’s our pick of the updated range.
