What I love. Well just look at the car! So stylish. I had been driving a 2013 Subaru Crosstrek. I love that this is even a little more compact and that there are so few on the road. Performance probably not as good. Subaru AWD can't be beat, and the Subaru flat 4 has a lower center of gravity. Ground clearance on the 500X is same as Crosstrek, very good. Seats ride higher on the 500X even though the heights of the vehicles are the same, so better road visibility. 5'11" or taller is a problem in the back if you have the moonroof. Acceleration is about the same (Fiat has more HP but more weight). Gas mileage (25 combined) is one less than the Crosstrek. Cabin noise is much better in the 500X. Rear visibility better in the 500X (I had to remove the rear headrests in the Crosstrek). Professional reviews complain about the 9-speed struggling to find the right gear, I haven't noticed a thing. Most importantly, did I mention how hot this thing is? Ow! Love it! (Cons: no cargo cover (though it's only a small gap between the back seats and the trunk), auto dim mirror on top model only, limited Fiat accessories, gas mileage should be better.)

Great Car

Car is great overall, the trunk space is very limited so a roof rack is essential on any trips. I live in nyc and get decent gas mileage I’d say about 22 mpg in the city and about 30 on highway depending on driving style. I use premium gas (Costco) the interior is modest nothing to brag about but Also modern so you have touch screen and apple and android pass through. The awd is great in the snow and rain. And the car has power not acceleration but it can go fast with great control. Its very conspicuous I’ve had the car 3 years and haven’t been pulled over once, and I do my fair share of speeding. One thing I’ve notice is the head light aren’t very bright and the car is bulb specific, so if you don’t put the correct bulb the dash will say the lights out even though it isn’t. You need the correct bulbs any shop can order them just those auto stores don’t carry them but give you options that will work but that dash light will be on. Great overall car. Will definitely keep.
