2015 Fiat 500c in West, TX - $11,976

Beautiful Italian styling combined with timeless functionality, efficient design and innovative technology – these are the attributes that made the original Fiat 500 (Cinquecento) a timeless icon. More than 50 years later, the same qualities make the Fiat 500C cabrio relevant for an entirely new generation of drivers.
Like the original Cinquecento, the Fiat 500C cabriolet showcases the brand’s ingenuity to build world-class small cars that ignite a spirit of the times through simple design, beautiful craftsmanship and timeless value.

Upgrades and enhancements for the 2015 model year include: new exterior paint colors: Giallo Moderna Perla (Modern Pearl Yellow), Laser Blu (Bright Metallic Blue) and Billet Argento (Billet Silver).

Available in Pop and Lounge trim levels, the Fiat 500C cabrio offers safety, fuel economy, quality and advanced technology perfectly balanced with iconic Italian style. Its city-friendly four-passenger A-segment size boasts engaging driving dynamics, and a fuel-efficient 1.4L Fiat MultiAir® four-cylinder engine joined to a C514 five-speed manual gearbox. An Aisin six-speed overdrive automatic transmission with Auto Stick is an available option.

Control hardware for the Fiat 500C consists of a specially engineered suspension tailored for performance in the U.S. market. A redesigned twist-beam rear suspension features retuned bushings with more built-in roll stiffness, delivering ride comfort and handling suited for American drivers.

Revised front-suspension geometry reduces dive during braking and features an increased front-stabilizer bar rate for reduced body roll and added driver confidence. In addition, retuned twin-tube shock absorbers and springs, all-new structural sub-frame brace, upgraded upper-strut mounts and retuned control-arm bushings make the U.S. market Fiat 500C as nimble as its European cousin while delivering a more comfortable and quiet interior cabin.

Inside the passenger cabin, enhancements feature an innovative instrument panel with a new seven-inch high-definition display, Bluetooth streaming audio and a revamped center console with an additional USB port. The Fiat 500C features a quiet cabin thanks to a well designed acoustics package. Floor, tunnel, trunk and instrument panel sound-deadening materials reduce road noise. Body and door seals, along with foam-in-place carpet, provide an additional level of interior quietness. Driver and front-passenger seats feature a new armrest and seat-cushion design for improved comfort on long journeys. Getting in and out for rear-seat passengers is now easier thanks to an easy-entry system designed into the front seats. Heated-seat controls are located on the lower instrument panel for added convenience, while large heated-seat elements provide front-passenger comfort in colder weather.

For easier operation and to keep the driver’s eyes on the road ahead, the Fiat 500C’s steering wheel features cruise control and steering-wheel-mounted audio controls.
