Fiat Brings Sub-15k Topolino EV to the US for tiny trips
TL;DR
Fiat is bringing its European two-seat Topolino microcar to the US with a starting price around $13,995 before a $990 destination charge (about $14,985 total). The ultra-compact, 1,000-pound car offers 8 hp and a 19 mph top speed with an estimated 46-mile range; the launch model will be private-property only, but Fiat plans a free conversion kit later to hit 25 mph and enable street use. Marketed for short urban trips in places where real car performance is not the point, the move comes as US buyers face high average new-car prices while Fiat's US sales remain limited. The company notes accessories and broader affordability trends as context for its US push.
