Used Fiat 500X cars for sale

Despite being a more sensible 500, the X still knows how to have fun, courtesy of energetic engines and fleet-footed handling, so in many ways it’s a best-of-both-worlds kind of deal.

Fiat 500X buying guide

What Fiat 500X trim levels are there?

Fiat 500X trim levels have been re-jigged several times throughout production, so if in doubt, check out the spec highlights on the vehicle advert.

But as a quick introduction, in 2022 Fiat 500X trim levels were listed as Club, Cross, (Red) and Sport:

Club offers 16-inch alloys, fabric seats, air-con, rear privacy glass, a leather steering wheel and gearknob, plus front foglights with cornering function.

Cross upgrades to 17-inch alloys, dual-zone climate control, electric heated door mirrors, multi-function steering wheel, rear parking sensors and roof rails.

(Red) is distinguished by red highlights on the 17-inch alloys and front grille.

Sport adds a more purposeful appearance with 18-inch alloys, body-coloured bumpers, wheel-arch extensions and sideskirts, plus an Alcantara steering wheel and aluminium pedals.

Other trim levels include Pop and Connect. Pop is essentially comparable to Club spec listed above, while Connect highlights include 17-inch alloys, rain-sensing wipers and a silver matt dashboard. You might also find the special-edition Hey Google, with Google voice command functionality.

If you buy an earlier used Fiat 500X, you’ll find the following trim levels: Urban, Lounge, City Cross, Cross Plus and Sport. Urban equipment includes 16-inch alloys, cruise control, electric front and rear windows, electric door mirrors, while Lounge upgrades to half leather interior trim, front and rear parking sensors, 17-inch alloys and a multi-function steering wheel. City Cross introduces front foglights with cornering function, chunkier-looking bumpers, satin-chrome exterior trim and a 3.5-inch TFT colour screen for the instrument binnacle (it’s black-and-white for lesser trims). Cross Plus plays host to LED headlights, rear privacy glass, a rear parking camera and 19-inch alloys.

Fiat 500X interior and technology

There’s not quite the cheekiness that you get inside the 500, but the 500X still has a fun interior with lots of chrome trim. It’s a little more grown up than the 500’s cabin, as you’d expect from its greater focus on carrying people and things. Ergonomically it’s impressive, as everything is in easy reach and all the controls are painless to operate.

Every used Fiat 500X for sale at Motorpoint is equipped with a seven-inch Uconnect HD touchscreen infotainment system, including DAB radio, Bluetooth, USB, aux input and Apple CarPlay/Android Auto connectivity, but you’ll need to step up to Cross trim or equivalent for 3D sat nav. If you’ve got a smartphone, you might prefer to use your phone’s apps through the screen instead.

Fiat 500X engine range explained

Fiat 500X 1.0 petrol

The entry-level 1.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine is plenty for the Fiat 500X, especially if you’re going to be hopping across town. It feels lively on faster roads, and on longer journeys it’ll do around 45mpg. This 120hp engine only comes with a manual gearbox.

Fiat 500X 1.3 petrol

Above that is a 150hp petrol mated to an automatic gearbox. Performance is noticeably better even if it doesn’t feel breathtakingly fast. Fiat’s figures suggest it’ll return up to 44mpg, so you don’t get particularly higher running costs by choosing the more powerful engine.
