This compact crossover is the sixth member in the 500 family, which already includes the 500, 500C and 500L models.
It will be manufactured in Melfi by the SATA plant, Italy. The model will then be sold in over 100 countries. According to the Italian company, it will be offered in two versions: “One is more metropolitan” and “the other is ideal for leisure”.

Later, the range will include a 110 HP (82.2 kW), 1.6 E-torQ and a 5-speed manual with FWD, and a 170HP (127 kW), 1.4 Turbo MultiAir II with both a 9-speed auto and an AWD. It also includes a surprising 184 HP (135 kW), Tigershark 2.5-liter unit.
