Fiat’s new crossover is set to debut during the Paris Motor Show according to a report by Australian Motoring.com.au.

Citing unnamed sources within Fiat-Chrysler Automobiles, the site claims that Fiat will unveil the car on October 2 in France rather than the previously rumored July 4 date where Fiat will also mark the 57th anniversary of the first 500.

The 500x will share its platform with the upcoming Jeep Renegade, which is scheduled to start showing up at dealers later in the year. Details about the new Fiat are still sketchy, but don’t be surprised if it comes with a version of the 1.4-liter “multiair” turbocharged engine and a nine-speed automatic transmission.
