TheFiat 600 is asubcompact crossover SUV (B-segment) produced byFiat since 2023 mainly for the European market. Thebattery electric version named the Fiat 600e was unveiled on 4 July 2023, coinciding with the anniversary of the originalFiat 500.[5][6] The petrol-powered, mild hybrid version was released in September 2023.[7]
TheFiat 600 nameplate was previously used by Fiat in the 1950s and 1960s. In 1997, the nameplate was reused by spelling out the number in theItalian language for theFiat Seicento. Developed under the project code F364 byFiat Chrysler Automobiles, the 600 is manufactured in Poland alongside theJeep Avenger on the StellantisCommon Modular Platform (eCMP) platform, a development of the internal combustion CMP and electric eCMP vehicle architectures developed byGroupe PSA.[8][9]
The 600 does not directly replace theFiat 500X, which remained in the range until 2024.[5] For the United States market, after the 500X is discontinued, it will not be replaced.[10] The 600 will be sold only in European markets,[11] plus select overseas markets such as Chile.
The 600 features design cues similar to theFiat New 500, such as circular headlights and a 600 badge above the front grille.[12] In June 2023, Fiat announced they would no longer sell cars painted grey; the 600 is the first model to conform to this new philosophy,[13] and will be offered in four finishes named Sun, Sea, Earth, or Sky of Italy, corresponding to orange (Arancia Sole d'Italia), green (Verde Mare d'Italia), sand (Sabbia Terra d'Italia), or blue (Azzuro Cielo d'Italia) colors, respectively.[14]
The interior of the 600 is similar to both the New 500 and theJeep Avenger, borrowing the steering wheel and climate controls from the former and the center console from the latter. The entry-level models will bear theProduct Red trim, available in black, white, or red exterior colors, and Fiat will offer an upgraded La Prima trim with interior upgrades and the four Italy-inspired exterior colors.[14]
