Fiat 500 e Convertible Review
The infamous small hatchback makes its second modern comeback, and this time round is all electric.
We’re open for business over Christmas! (We are closed Xmas, Boxing and New Year’s Days and from 2pm Xmas and New Year’s Eve)
The 500 Electric Cabrio is Fiat’s soft-top version of the 500 Electric hatchback.
It comes with a retractable fabric roof that slides back at the touch of a button, taking just 25 seconds to fold into the boot lid and which can also be operated at speeds of up to 37mph.
In effect, and unlike a traditional convertible, the 500 Electric Cabrio has a large, full-length canvas sunroof - which is perhaps even easier to live with than a regular drop-top.
Read morePowering the 500 Electric Cabio is a 42 kWh battery, just as you get with the hatchback variant.
It provides power of 118 hp and can accelerate the Cabrio from 0-62 mph in just 9 seconds.
You also get a range of up to 189 miles between charges, which is more than you get with rivals such as the Honda e or the Volkswagen e-Up!
Using a dedicated home wall box you can fully-charge the battery in 4 hours 15 minutes. You can also use a rapid charger to take the battery from 0-80% in 35 minutes.
Entry-level ‘Icon’ models come loaded with a 10.25 inch infotainment touchscreen with sat nav as well as 16 inch alloys and a vegan-friendly ‘leather’ steering wheel.
You can also expect a suite of driver assistance and safety systems as standard, including lane keep assist and advanced emergency braking.
Range-topping La Prima models add extras such as wireless mobile phone charging and an uprated sound system from renowned audio specialists JBL.
The 500 Electric Cabrio could also be the perfect company car, falling into a low Benefit in Kind (BIK) tax bracket.

I could not recommend Select enough and the amazing service I had from my consultant Shane Newton. Shane regularly updated me on progress of my new vehicle, and was always so helpful in answering any queries I had regarding my order throughout the whole process - no question was silly - he always responded promptly whether that be through email or phone call. I just received my new vehicle last week, and Shane was in contact right away to ensure the handover was seamless and that I was happy with my new vehicle! Needless to say I was very happy with the earlier than anticipated delivery - Christmas has came early! This is my second vehicle with Select and yet another excellent service. I could not fault anything and want to thank Shane once again for all of his help!
Never leased a car before this and the staff were so helpful and friendly. They helped me through the process and kept in regular contact to make sure everything was going OK. Were able to answer all my questions and were personalised with their customer service. I felt like we were having conversations rather than being a number going through a box ticking exercise.
My second lease via Select. David has dealt with my order and been very helpful and responsive throughout. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend!
