The model

Read full review

The Fiat 500X has a nice-looking interior, and many will be sold by the styling alone. There are, however, plenty of other small SUVs in the same price bracket that are more practical, better to drive and offer a higher level of safety equipment and crash protection.

The trim

See full equipment

Mid-range City Cross gets the better 1.0-litre turbocharged engine, tougher off-roader inspired exterior styling, 17in alloys, a 3.5in colour screen between the instrument dials, climate control and rear parking sensors. Crucially, you can also select automatic emergency braking as an option.

The engine

See full engine specs

This turbocharged four-cylinder 1.0-litre petrol engine is the most powerful in the lineup but it’s only available with an automatic gearbox which can be frustratingly slow in its shifts.
