Fiat 500X FAQs
The Fiat 500X is almost 70cm longer than the car it’s loosely based on, and Fiat has divvied the extra space between the rear seats and the boot. It means that both areas are much more spacious than the 500, with the rear seats being actually accessible for fully grown adults. The 350-litre boot isn’t class-leading but is on a par with the Ford Ecosport, Nissan Juke and Hyundai Kona – there’s more than enough room for a weekly shop or a couple of big suitcases.
It’s more that the 500 is such a small car than the 500X being a large one. You shouldn’t have any trouble parking it but, to help you out, many versions come with parking sensors and/or a reversing camera.
You can buy a used Fiat 500X as a five-door hatchback, but this can be specified with a folding soft-top known as the Dolcevita, offered from 2021. Just like the smaller open-air Fiat 500, the soft-top is essentially a fabric sunroof that covers the majority of the roof.
A petrol engine is the best engine for the Fiat 500X, largely because recent cars don’t offer anything else. A diesel engine was available a while back but we wouldn’t go rushing to hunt one out. Fiat’s modern petrol engines give a good blend of performance and economy, and suit the car’s character well.
In the early years of its life, the Fiat 500X was available with a 4x4 option on the most powerful diesel engine. More recently, though, the 500X is staunchly front-wheel drive as very few buyers will feel the benefits of four-wheel drive. The two-wheel-drive versions are usually cheaper to run, and a good set of winter tyres will give you as much confidence in wintry conditions as buying a 4x4.
Some cars drive better than the 500X, some are more spacious, and some are more comfortable. However, it's the 500X's style and flair that marks it out from the competition.
Whether it's equipped with mini-off-roader looks or dressed with the Sport model's imposing alloys, the 500X makes a much sharper impression inside and out than most compact SUVs. If that sounds like your cup of tea, then you'll probably get a kick out of 500X ownership.
Fiat's maintenance costs are generally more affordable than a lot of more expensive brands. That means keeping your 500X in full working order shouldn't be too much of a financial burden.
Be on the watch for models with large alloy wheels, as these are easy to prang on kerbs thanks to the 500X's less-than-ideal visibility.
Reliability surveys are inconclusive for the 500X – some like What Car? report fairly poor performance, while others like Honest John give the car high marks for dependability. Nevertheless, Fiat's maintenance and servicing costs are towards the lower end of the scale, so most garage visits shouldn't break the bank.
You can add an extended warranty to your Fiat 500X purchase, which will insulate you from unexpected repair costs throughout the duration of the coverage.
