Having said that, I have not modified the exterior of the car and it will remain stock looking (at least to the casual observer). I don't see the car so much as a collectors item as a creative automotive platform. Even when it is done, I doubt I'll have stopped modifying and customizing it.

I will certainly enjoy driving it when its finished, but I'm getting as much of a kick out of the designing and building process.

My joy in this comes from the process of learning how to convert a car to electric and all things automotive. Like most owners/tinkerers I can't think of many parts of the car I haven't fixed, rebuilt, or upgraded in some fashion or another. It has turned out to be a very good example of a well stored car - with signs of occasional fixes and repairs.

In 2012-2014 I spent most of my efforts on getting the car running right, fixing small things, and upgrading the interior. The overall goal was to have a car that could last another 30 years being actively driven. In the meantime, I have been fixing, customizing, and upgrading various parts of the car. I bought #6313 in 2012 with the sole intention of converting the car to electric - eventually. I hope so, because if they can price it right, the 500 feels like a winner this time around.TesLorean is the codename for my (now) long-term project to create an Electric Drive DeLorean. The company went as far as pushing the announcement on its US channels, with the company saying it is 'evaluating its potential for the North American market.'

It also houses FCA's new UConnect 5 system, which supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.ДЇiat pulled the small city car from North America for the 2020 model year, but the brand is signaling there's a good chance we'll see it here again. There's a 10.25-inch infotainment screen that spans the center console with very few physical buttons. Inside, the car takes a big step forward with a clean, modern look. The Fiat badge is also gone from the nose in favor of a 500 badge. The new cabin looks infinitely more modern than the old one, without totally losing its retro charm.ДЄvailable once again in both hatchback and convertible guise, on the design front, the latest 500 doesn't change drastically, but its slightly wider and longer footprint helps this Cinquecento look like a more planted thing. If you can find the a robust-enough charger, the company says just 5 minutes of plugged-in time will return 31 miles of range. Power comes from a 42-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery, and Fiat has bundled in an 85-kilowatt fast charger for, well, fast charging. It'd likely be a smidge lower on the EPA cycle, but that's certainly a major upgrade.

The original 500e went just 84 miles on a full charge, but the new wider and longer 500 should go about 200 miles on a full charge, based on European WLTP standards. And it's no longer a mere compliance car. While the 500 we've known for years did feature a 500e model, the 500e will simply become the standard 500 moving forward. In a livestream event, Fiat showed off its impressive next-generation small car, which is totally electric now. We were supposed to see the tiny machine debut at the 2020 Geneva Motor Show, but if you haven't heard by now, the ongoing coronavirusВ outbreak scrapped the Swiss show entirely. More mature and refined than ever, the Fiat 500 broke into the world on Wednesday.
