2016 FIAT 500X consumer reviews

Love the car. Gonna be our Island ride for sure. Always wanted one and decided to buy it now with time keft to enjoy it in Hawaii.

This car makes my whole face smile! Quick and nimble, very responsive. Only criticism is that the back seats are a bit uncomfortable for an adult and the front seat has to be pushed all the way forward to accommodate an infant car seat in the back.

I bought this car as replacement for my Chevy crew cab pick up truck which I had a hard time letting it go; Believe me I don't miss my truck, This SUV has given me the fuel MPG that I needed plus performance is superb, Instrument panel is easy to read and technology is up to date. I find it very much reliable and I am very happy with it that I just bought a second one for my daughter going to college this summer. Love the car and it's looks.

I bought this after owning a Toyota RAV4 for several years. I test rode so many SUVs and they all felt so clumsy and sluggish, truck like and cumbersome. The Fiat is nimble and easy to handle in tight spaces. So far this Fiat is far better in terms of ride quality, maneuvering, craftsmanship, style, and economy. It is such a well thought out crossover. I will buy another Fiat for sure. It has unique style and is reasonably priced. Very happy with it!

Love the color and the driving performance. Just went in to look around and ended up buying the car!

I bought my 2016 Fiat 500X Lounge 2WD new and I've put 2000 miles on it. So far no reliability issues. My girlfriend has a 500 Pop with 7500 miles on it that we bought new and no reliability issues with that either. So far I've been VERY impressed with this little SUV. My previous cars were expensive performance cars and when it came time to buy another car, I first looked at a 2013 BMW 335i convertible, 2015 Jaguar XF and Range Rover Evoque. I decided to look at the 500X because my girlfriend and I love her 500. It's not the best engineered car, but it's a great little, comfortable, fun car. After I sat in the driver's seat, the 500X just felt right. The BMW felt old and the Range Rover was super fun but more than twice the cost. The Fiat felt modern. The 500X feels really refined and is comfortable. I know many reviews said they've had issues with the shift quality but to me, it drives no different than any other car. The only thing I've noticed is that the car always wants to be in the highest gear and its slow to down shift for passing. If you put the car in sport mode or better yet, use the manual shift, the car has pretty decent power at higher speeds but not exceptional. Also, considering that the transmission always wants to be in the highest gear, fuel economy is just ok. I just took a long highway trip and it struggled to get 30 mpg. In town highway is better at 32 mpg. Overall mpg is about 25. The ride is mostly comfortable with a few exceptions of vibration on really rough roads. For a compact SUV, it handles really well and its even better in sport mode, as the steering wheel tightens up noticeable. The car feels like you have a good connection to the road and the car itself. It's very enjoyable! The interior materials and build quality are exceptional, except for the vinyl trim around the seat fabric. It's loaded with features and the technology is modern. I've owned other European cars and the technology on them can sometimes be weird and not user friendly--and down right useless. The car is also pretty quite, with the most noise coming from the tires at high speeds. Wind noise is moderate. Overall its comfortable and not objectionable. The engine is gruff and cheap sounding at first start when its cold but once it idles down, its pretty quite and you never hear it otherwise. Overall this car is a nice little SUV that's comfortable and fun to drive! I know professional reviews have been mixed but I would encourage anyone to try it for themselves. I'm very glad I bought it!

Just purchased a Fiat 500x. Not too many miles on it yet but so far no hiccups or issues at all. Very comfortable car ,rides very well and seems to be tolerant of my mistakes when I drive it. I had reservations about the 9 speed automatic trans,but I have not had any of the issues I`ve seen reported about the shifting being somewhat slow or seeming to search for the right gear.The software latest package for it might have resolved those issues but for me ,no problem. The car is gorgeous in the Arancio(Orange) shade and draws looks when I`m stopped at lights or stores. It looks like a smaller SUV but there is a lot of interior space and the dash and controls are well laid out. everything seems to be at hand when you need it. The Blue and Me /Uconnect feature paired quickly wiht my Galaxy S5,without any problems at all. The ability to set the center dash gauge in the manner I like is a big plus. All in all I`m very happy with this new 500x

I leased a Fiat 500X Easy, loaded, a week ago. So far I just adore it. Lovely interior detailing. Incredible amount of safety features, almost overwhelming initially. Beats Audio and 8 speakers. Intuitive navigation. A sunroof and a skylight. Good heavens. So far, I really love it.

i got 3 weeks ago this 500x trekking plus and i love to drive over and over and over again so much fun! i realize that fiat is taken seriously! great job mister fiat!

Nice fast up to date car for the money Italian to boot !!!! Once you learn all the bells and whistles you have a adorable fast and fab car Joyce
