Before its official unveiling at the L.A. Auto Show, Fiat has dropped photos of the upcoming 500e, its new small electric city car.

Information apart from the photos showing a slightly modified exterior, and new style for the interior remains unreleased. The body gets new lower side sills, a redesigned lower front fascia and a low front lip, likely put in place to improve aerodynamics.

The interior gets a white and orange contrasting color job, and what looks like buttons that have replaced the standard gear-shift knob.

Chrysler has confirmed that the 500e will be available in the state of California in 2013.
