The 2019 Fiat 500 in Las Cruces NM: A Modern Classic
The 2019 Fiat 500 in Las Cruces NM is considered a “boutique” car. People don’t buy it because they have trouble parking their full-size sedan, they buy it for its looks. It has a ’50s-look, but unlike many modern retro vehicles, the Fiat 500 captures the spirit of the original. This is thanks to its upright look and small footprint. Perfectly round headlights and a tiny grille harken back to the original from the 1950s, while the shape is modernized in just the right ways, though considerably larger.
Inside, the body-color dashboard brightens the entire vehicle’s interior. In addition, the plastic switchgear, round headrests, and embroidered logos are charming overall.
The 2019 Fiat 500 in Las Cruces NM is a small city car with seating for up to four. It is available as a two-door hatchback or a convertible – known as the 500C – that uses fixed roof rails and a folding center portion. Three trim levels are available: Pop, Lounge and Abarth.
At the top of the Fiat 500 food chain is the performance-focused Abarth. This model includes the parking sensors available on the Lounge and adds a more powerful engine, a rear spoiler, sportier suspension tuning, upgraded brakes with red-painted calipers, a performance exhaust system, distinctive exterior and interior styling tweaks, premium cloth upholstery, a leather-wrapped shift knob, a sport steering wheel, and front floor mats.
Some of the Lounge’s standard features can also be added to the Pop and the Abarth trim levels. Other notable options include a 1957 Edition package which includes special colors and badging, a sunroof for coupe models, 17-inch wheels for the Abarth, a BeatsAudio sound system, a navigation system, and a variety of exterior and interior styling enhancements.
Fiat has sold over one million 500 models worldwide since launching the model in 2007. While the company would like to point to style, quality, and comfort as the core rationale behind the 500’s success, accessibly may be the biggest factor. The 2019 Pop trim starts at just $16,245, while the Abarth promises track-tested performance and durability with Italian flair for $21,995, putting it right in line with the larger and heavier Ford Fiesta ST while undercutting the Mini Cooper S by more than $5,000.
