Fiat brought the current 500 model with a retro theme inside the hall three of Geneva Motor Show. The retro styled Fiat 500 brings up some memories of the legendary Cinquecento, adding the 1957 year into its name.
Exterior
Called Fiat 500 Vintage 57, the small mini is finished in pastel colours with a contrasting white roof, spoiler, antenna, mirror covers and 16-inch vintage alloy wheels, similar to those used on the original 500. The wheel centres feature the historical Fiat logos, a nice touch that’s repeated on the front and rear badges.
Interior
Inside the car we have the same retro theme with a white dashboard, historic Fiat logo in the steering wheel boss and tan-coloured Poltrona Frau leather seats with ivory leather ‘half-moon’ inserts and "500" embroidery in tan.
The car comes equipped as standard with air conditioning, Blue&Me, seven airbags, Start&Stop system, ESP with ASR/MSR, HBA and Hill Holder.

The car will available in UK starting this April, with an engine range that includes the petrol-powered 69 hp 1.2-litre as well as the award-winning 0.9 TwinAir 85 hp turbo petrol engine. Prices for the Fiat 500 Vintage ’57 will start from £12,545.
