Fiat 600: electric 600e and hybrid versions, trims
The Fiat 600 is a compact city crossover that returned in 2023 with the electric 600e and mild-hybrid versions. We look at the gearboxes, trims, and what to check before buying a used Fiat 600.
Fiat 600 in brief
The new Fiat 600 is a compact city crossover based on the Stellantis platform, which is also used by the Jeep Avenger, Peugeot 2008, and Opel Mokka. The design is styled after the legendary Fiat 600 from the 1950s, so it stands out.
Although the body is small, the interior can accommodate four to five people, and the boot is similar in size to other cars in this class. The Fiat 600 is perfect for the city, and the electric version is great for short trips.
Which version to choose
Two main versions are offered: the electric 600e and the mild-hybrid (MHEV) with a petrol engine. The electric version is ideal for those who drive mostly in the city and have the ability to charge the car.
The petrol mild-hybrid is simpler and more affordable, suitable for those for whom an electric car is not practical. The model is still new, so the used market offer is limited.
Engines and battery
The electric 600e has around a 156 hp (115 kW) engine and approximately a 54 kWh battery. According to the manufacturer's WLTP data, the range is around 400 km; in reality, it depends on speed and weather conditions.
The mild-hybrid version has a 1.2-litre turbo petrol engine (around 100 hp) with an electric motor, integrated into a 6-speed automatic gearbox.
What to check when buying a used Fiat 600
Request the service history and ensure that software updates have been carried out. Test the multimedia system and driver assistance features.
For electric versions, check the battery condition, charging history, and whether a charging cable is included. For hybrid versions, test the gearbox – shifts should be smooth.
Inspect the body and interior. Since the model is new, long-term data is scarce, so the service history and remaining warranty are particularly important.
