You can’t beat the cost of these used. Very fun to drive in the city and stop and go crowded highways. Not great for long highway drives at full speed as it bounces around too much.

Fabulous City Car

May not have been worth what folks paid new, but I got mine used for $6k and it's a great little car. Cheap to run, fun to drive and cute as hell. It's really peppy and not a bad place to be, considering Fiat tried to make it more upscale than other 500s. All in all one of my favorite cars, and we have other "better" cars such as a CR-V and a BMW. Not great as an only car (unless you only drive locally) due to its limited range, but awesome for multi-car households.

Great little car that doesn't feel that small to drive. Great acceleration and handling. Everything other than the seats and wheel feels a bit fragile. Needs more range to be useful anywhere but in town.

I drive this car 58 miles each way to work and 58 miles back home all freeway miles and part of the drive is a steep hill for about 2 miles. On the way to work I end up with about 20% battery life put on the way home I am at about 8%. So far car has 46K miles and is great because I save tons of cash versus gas. The only thing I do not like about the car is the circular gear console it is a little tight for me personally because I like to open my legs an stretch out from the long commutes I do everyday but beside that the car is GREAT!!! If you commute less than 50 miles I definitely recommend it plus great in tights spots when looking for parking.

The car is simple and extremely reliable. That's good because if anything does need fixing, the dealership are not interested. It's not that some don't want to help but parts are hard to get and mechanics are not generally well trained in electric cars. They insist that it's just the way these cars are and they can't be returned to the original well functioning condition. The batteries are long lasting and show little degradation after seven years. The range is about 80 miles however. The brakes have become a bit grabby and the front end is showing signs of wear.
