New for 2018: Fiat

Christian Wardlaw | Oct 04, 2017
Few changes are in store for Fiat’s eclectic lineup for 2018. Aside from new colors and next-generation Uconnect infotainment technology, the big news is a minor freshening of the 500L, affectionately known as “the Popemobile.” As this is written, Fiat had not announced changes to the 500 city car, so perhaps more details are to come.
