2024 Fiat 500e adds special models for fans of rose gold and sweet tunes

The 2024 500e is nearly here, and before its grand launch, Fiat revealed a pair of special editions that’ll be joining the lineup toward the end of the year. TheyÂ’re called the “Inspired By Beauty” and “Inspired By Music” models. Starting with the 500e Inspired By Beauty (seen in the photo gallery at the top), itÂ’s painted in an exclusive Rose Gold color you wonÂ’t be able to get on any other 500e. The shade is rather stunning, so itÂ’s safe to say the name matches its actual appearance. This model also gets body-color mirror caps and chrome molding to differentiate it from other models. Inside the Inspired By Beauty, Fiat treats you to beige “eco-leather” seats and a contrasting black dash also wrapped in eco-leather.  The Inspired By Beauty model adds new driver assistance features that other versions of the 500e donÂ’t have, including adaptive cruise control and lane-keep assist. Thankfully, the second special model Fiat released today also has the above driver assistance features, too. 2024 Fiat 500e Inspired By Music front 3/4 View 23 Photos This one (directly above) is called Inspired By Music, so listen up, audiophiles. This model gets a JBL premium sound system consisting of seven speakers, an amplifier and a subwoofer. It has four unique sound modes in the infotainment system including My Music Room, My Recording Studio, Giuseppe Verdi Opera House Pisa and Open-air Arena. Each have their unique characteristics and are meant to represent the sound experience you might have in each location. Appearance-wise, the Inspired By Music wears a shiny coat of Piano Black (yes, another intentional music reference) paint and the same beige eco-leather color combo as you see in the Inspired By Beauty model. Both of these special models have the same starting price of $37,595, including the $1,595 destination charge. Fiat says you can expect them to hit dealerships in the third quarter of 2024, but theyÂ’re both available for ordering today. Related video:

Abarth 600e electric crossover previewed with 240 horsepower

The second electric member of the Abarth family is nearly ready to make its debut. Based on the Fiat 600e crossover unveiled in 2023 for the European market, it features a muscular-looking exterior design and the most powerful drivetrain the brand has ever put in a car. Finished in Hypnotic Purple, the Abarth 600e sits much lower than the Fiat-branded model. The picture released by the firm shows the Scorpionissima trim, which will be limited to 1,949 units and only offered at launch, so keep in mind that the standard car might look a little different. With that said, it gets a deeper front bumper, 20-inch wheels designed to clear bigger brakes, and a massive roof-mounted spoiler. Abarth hasn't released full technical specifications. All we know at this stage is that the 600e Scorpionissima Edition will ship with a 240-horsepower drivetrain. That figure makes it the most powerful regular-production model in the brand's history, but it doesn't tell the full story. The 600e stretches 164 inches long, so it's likely the biggest car in Abarth's history, and there's a chance it will be the heaviest as well. That's not to say it won't be fun to drive. Abarth wrapped the big wheels with sticky tires and, significantly, fitted a mechanical limited-slip differential. We'll need to be patient to find out what the 600e looks like inside; Abarth has only clarified that the model will be "loaded." More details about the Abarth 600e Scorpionissima Edition will emerge in the coming months, though nothing suggests we'll see the model in the United States. And, while the standard 600e has a gasoline-burning counterpart, it doesn't sound like the Abarth will get one. Related video:

Fiat celebrates 30 years of Panda 4x4 with Antartica edition [w/poll]

Typically, 4x4s are rather large affairs, but the Fiat Panda stands resolutely against the trend. And what's more, it's done just that for 30 years now, over the course of which Fiat has rolled out three successive generations and sold over 400,000 examples of the little off-roader that could. So to celebrate three decades of the Panda 4x4, Fiat is rolling out this special edition.
Called the Fiat Panda 4x4 Antartica, it's set to debut next week at the Frankfurt Motor Show alongside a new Black Code trim for the Freemont (known to us as the Dodge Journey) and an anniversary edition Abarth 595. Fiat has based this special edition on the Panda 4x4 Rock and upgraded it with two-tone paint, 15-inch diamond-finish alloys, orange trim, fog lights, tinted glass and special badging. Inside, it's got gray and orange upholstery, and European buyers can order it up with either the 85-horsepower 900cc TwinAir engine or the 75hp 1.3-liter diesel.
A limited run will reach European showrooms by the end of the year. But we wonder... should Fiat consider bringing the Panda Stateside to share floor space with the diminutive 500? Have your say in our informal poll below, and feel free to read through the press release, too.
