2012 FIAT 500 consumer reviews

its a perfect car for everyday use. Its small and you can park it easy. efficient on gas. I loved driving it in highway. so reliable , no shaking. never had break down problems. AC worked perfectly. the only problem was the cap hoppers, they constantly come off and you have buy new ones. doors are so heavy and big.

Bought the Fiat 500, had 50k miles on it, interior and exterior were in excellent shape, and very feel rattling noise on panels. The only problem was that previous owner purchased a cheap set of tires so road noise was horrible, replaced with original continentals and it became much better. Good reliable car for a woman who run errands.

It's been said many times, but the Fiat 500 Pop is a fun car to drive. My car is the 2012 Fiat 500 Pop. I like this car, and when the time comes to buy another car, I most likely will buy another Fiat 500. From what I have read, much of what I'm writing applies to other years of the Fiat including the brand new 2017 ones as many things do not change, and those that do just get better. There is plenty of leg room and head room so you don't feel cramped. The audio system is great, and the receiver on the radio is perhaps the best receiver I've seen for pulling in stations. This car includes many features that are only options on other cars such as power door locks, power windows, external temperature indicator, trip computer, and more. The AC works well, not too hot and not too cold - kinda perfect. Now back to it being a fun car: it breaks with the herd and does some things in it's own unique way. There is a safety on the (manual) gear shift t hat you must use to put the car into reverse. Not a bad idea if someone is prone to mixing up 2nd or 4th gear with reverse by mistake. There is also a unique way to turn on the AC by pushing in on the fan speed dial. The vehicle security is great and the power door locks are extremely convenient. So what is bad about it? To be honest, the rear seat has very little room. It's not going to be comfortable taking 4 adults on a road trip to Disneyland. It is perfect for two, however. The back seat isn't useless. It's just not too comfortable. I love the fact that it is a hatchback. All you need to do is fold down the back seats and voila! Instant mini truck. The absolute best thing about the car is how honest FIat is. This car routinely gets much better miles per gallon (MPG) than is stated on the sticker. I get up to 45 MPG. My last car was a Toyota Yaris which was supposed to get 40 MPG highway, but it never did. I'm sure that FIat could advertise the car as having better MPG than they currently do, but they choose to understate it. I really like how economical the Fiat 500 Pop is. If you like small economical cars, please give the Fiat 500 a serious look. Take one out for a test drive. You might even fall in love.

For a small car, it has a lot of space, really fun to drive. it has excellent gas mileage and with gas prices today, you can't beat it. I? love that the interior colors match the exterior. Wonderful car.

Love my little FIAT! It is has style on the inside and out. Not a cheaply made compact car!Trendy and gets up and goes-FUN!!!!

This car is ideal for a single person who wants a fun, economical, and reliability way to motor around town. It's not just for the young, but the young at heart as well. Open the moon roof, crank up the music and enjoy the ride!

This is a good car for a single person. Not a good family car because of space. Do not get this car if you have to deal with anything more than a couple inches of snow.

Best value for money car I have owned, drives like a big one, very zippy and fun, love the moon roof and the stylish Italian retro design inside and out - outstanding gas mileage! Its a show stopper, people often approach me and ask about my Fiat.

Highly reliable and cheap maintenance car ever, most gas efficiently car I have ever had. 33 miles per gallon on regular gas. well maintained , very low mileage compared to other use cars any other sizes only 38751 miles for a 2012 model. sell for relocation.

Superior handling, great fuel mileage, and like-new mileage made this the perfect buy, for a fabulous price! For a small car, we can't believe the amount of room, the comfortable ride, & the sporty style this coupe has to offer!
