The room got quite a charge from the unveiling of the all-new Fiat 500e. The cute little Fiat is a very buzz-worthy addition to the Cinquecento lineup.

This new electric recharges in less than four hours and delivers more than 80 miles of estimated range with city driving exceeding 100 miles with zero tailpipe emissions. It gets an estimated 116 miles-per-gallon (city) equivalent of pure battery-electric power.

On the inside, the 500e spotlights a retro-futuristic design that includes an electronic shifter with easy-to-use push-button transmission mode selection. The seven-inch instrument cluster displays full-color picture graphics. A TomTom Navigation unit lets the driver check out the vehicle’s charge schedule, range and can even request locations for nearby charging stations. The Fiat 500e smartphone app can also keep drivers plugged into their 500e by locating charging stations and tracking your energy use.

The all-new 2013 Fiat 500e arrives at FIAT Studios in California in 2013.

Another new Fiat dazzled at the media preview in LA today. The all-new 2014 Fiat 500L made a splash with its seating for five, 42% more interior space and two additional doors. Some of the Fiat 500L highlights include a trendsetting interior that gives a nearly 360-degree panoramic view of the road. The Fiat 500L Trekking offers a blend of rugged styling and versatility that compliments an active lifestyle.

The Fiat 500 goes topless for the debut of the new Fiat 500c Abarth. The Fiat 500c Abarth combines turbocharged, track-capable performance with a clever open-top design. The cloth top retracts with just the push of a button.
