The electrification of the automobile fleet sounds futuristic but it is the order of the day. When we talk about owning electric cars, we put problems like the price, the autonomy or the charging time . We feel that it does not go with us. It is something too new and complicated, so better wait until it is really functional. It is not surprising. The truth is that it seems that the house has started from the roof, launching vehicles with increasingly surprising autonomies . A milestone for brands that has little to do with our current cargo network, somewhat scarce if we try to place points in the Spanish geography. However, urban electric mobility is already a reality and we cannot escape it, nor should we. This 2020 was marked on the calendar of the European Union as the definitive year of the transition. It was then when brands like Volkswagen have taken the final step, presenting their first models developed as electric from the beginning. Fiat does not plan to miss this new adventure either, but it will do so in its own way, paying tribute to the iconic Fiat 500 . The mythical urbanite gives a 180-degree turn to his future and goes permanently to zero-emission mobility , only electric units of this third generation will be marketed. It will continue to have its closed body and convertible with a canvas roof , but the Fiat 3 + 1 will also be available, which we will talk about in this article.
We will still have to wait to drive and test the curious 3 + 1, which will come later, but we have been able to sit behind the wheel of a convertible unit. I will not deny that I am a loyal admirer of this type of bodywork , little seen in our country. I have always dreamed of driving with my hair in the wind, as long as I have it, through the streets of a crowded city. That scene has finally been fulfilled and the result has been similar to what my imagination offered me, with all heads turning as I passed. I know, it is not for me, far from it, it is for the beauty of the new Fiat 500 .
The Italian firm has known how to maintain the retro aesthetic of a model present on the market since 1957. Throughout its history, the 500 has accumulated more than six million sales since its appearance . This third generation represents a radical change to its concept but it was important to maintain a well-known, friendly image in line with the tastes of the urban public. If you want to know how it goes, keep reading.
