Fiat 500 - back in black

Fiat, riding on the success of its Fiat 500 by Diesel, is introducing another special edition version of its city car – the Fiat 500 Matt Black.

The car's characterised by its paint job with grille mouldings, door releases and external mirrors finished in a metallic effect. Its 16” alloy rims are also matt black and finished with a red stripe and red brake callipers.

LIMITED OFFER

The new model is powered by a 1.4, 74kW/131Nm engine driving a six-speed manual 'box. The little city car sprints to 100km/h in and underwhelming 10.5sec and its fuel consumption is listed as 6.3 litres/100km (combined cycle).

Standard equipment includes aircon, rear parking sensors, auto anti-dazzle mirror and a radio/CD/MP3 unit with six speakers and a sub-woofer.

As a launch offer, the first 50 SA buyers will get a buckshee Tom Tom navigation system. Using Fiat’s Blue&Me system, the colour touch screen can be used to manage audio, mobile phone and satnav.

Safety equipment includes seven air bags, stability and traction control, hill-start assistance and anti-lock brakes.
