Specifications

The 500X is based on the Small Wide 4×4 architecture, a platform evolved from the GM Fiat Small platform used for the Fiat Grande Punto and Fiat 500L.^[4]

The Fiat 500X is available with several engines with optional all-wheel drive with most. At launch, engines available outside of North America included: one gasoline, the turbocharged 1.4 MultiAir2, and two MultiJet turbodiesels displacing 1.6 and 2.0 litres.^[5]

In North America, the Fiat 500X features:^[6]

• A 1.4-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine, with a six-speed manual transmission available only with front-wheel drive.
• A naturally aspirated 2.4-litre four-cylinder engine, with a nine-speed automatic with standard front-wheel drive and optional with all-wheel drive.

In 2022, Fiat added the 1.5 L Firefly mild hybrid, with a 48 Volt belt alternator starter electric motor to assist the engine.^[7] This is paired with a 0.8kWh battery.^[8][9]
