Starting this November, the iconic Mirafiori plant in Turin will once again become the beating heart of Fiat 500 Hybrid production.

This marks a strategic move for Stellantis, part of the industrial plan presented to Italy’s Ministry of Enterprises and Made in Italy in December 2024. The goal is ambitious: to produce 100,000 units per year, with an initial symbolic target of 5,000 vehicles by the end of 2025.

Fiat 500 Hybrid: a 500 that blends style, technology, and accessibility

The new Fiat 500 Hybrid will be available in three configurations: Hatchback , 3+1, and Cabrio. Powering the car is the well-proven FireFly 1.0-liter three-cylinder mild-hybrid engine paired with a 6-speed manual transmission.

The 12V mild-hybrid system improves fuel efficiency and offers a smooth driving experience, making it an ideal urban companion. All of this is produced entirely in Italy, highlighting the brand’s commitment to local manufacturing.

Inside, the new 500 raises the bar with advanced onboard technology. The Uconnect 5 infotainment system comes with a 10.25-inch touchscreen, complemented by a 7-inch digital instrument cluster. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto ensure seamless connectivity without the hassle of cables.

On the safety front, the new 500 offers a comprehensive suite of ADAS, including automatic emergency braking, lane keeping assist, traffic sign recognition, and other features designed to make city driving safer and stress-free.

An icon that evolves but stays true to itself

Vibrant colors, refined details, and three versions to suit every need: the hybrid 500 is designed to preserve its original charm while offering modern features accessible to a wider audience. The “500 Torino” special edition will be unveiled in November in the very city where it was born.
