Fiat

Reintroduced back into the North American marketplace in 2011, Fiat currently sells just one vehicle: the 500X crossover. As the name suggests, it pulls influence from the iconic cinquecento, which left our shores in 2020. The 500X has a sibling too, in the shape of the pint-sized Jeep Renegade. Both crossovers feature a 1.3-liter turbocharged engine.

The 500e is on its way back though as an al-electric subcompact hatchback.

Founded in 1899 Fiat’s first car was the 3 ½ CV, of which just eight were made. Fiat’s return to the US comes as part of a larger deal whereby Fiat rescued Chrysler from bankruptcy and has since taken control of the American automaker.

Fiat Could Bring A Pickup To The US

This week Fiat announced its plans for the coming years with a series of concepts: a truck, a crossover, an SUV, a camper, and a city car. The truck caught our eye, largely for a single sentence in the automaker’s statement: “FIAT is the market leader in South America and the Strada pick-up is the bestselling vehicle on the Brazilian market. Moving forward, FIAT is certain that this type of vehicle can replicate its success at a global level, even in Europe.” If Fiat is indeed looking to flesh out its offerings here in North America or elsewhere, a truck seems a logical place to start.
