Fiat 500C Convertible 2012

The 500C, an open-air version of the relentlessly adorable three-door hatchback. It’s not a true convertible, but more a mega-sunroof version in the spirit of the original Cinquecento. The C should then deliver the same driving experience, a nice balance between relaxed personality and eager-to-please handling. Underhood you’ll find the 500 hatch’s single-overhead-cam 1.4-liter MultiAir four with the same 101 hp and 98 lb-ft of torque, bolted to the identical five-speed manual and six-speed automatic transmissions (the former has U.S.-specific ratios and the latter is an American-market exclusive). The 500C Pop is available with either transmission, while the Lounge is all automatic, all the time. Fuel economy is largely unchanged from the hatchback’s, with only the automatic’s highway rating dropping by 2 mpg. The 500C is expected to return 30/38 mpg with the manual and 27/32 with the automatic.Read more:Fiat 500C Convertible 2012

Fiat Uno Cabrio Concept 2010

The Uno Concept Cabrio is an open-top two-passenger two-door. Fiat says the concept is aimed at younger consumers and is "an example of the alternatives that can be generated from the New Uno platform." It is fitted with a 152-horsepower turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder engine that can propel the vehicle at speeds up to 124 mph. The chassis has been stiffened and lowered, and the car rides on low-profile 17-inch tires. The concept gets redesigned bumpers, oversize air intakes, front lip spoiler, LED taillamps and brake lights. The cockpit features a three-spoke steering wheel, two-tone leather seats with quilted stitching and aluminum pedals and trim. The Uno Sporting has a naturally aspirated 85-hp 1.4 under the hood and sits on a slightly stiffer, lower suspension with 15-inch wheels and tires. The car receives a few aerodynamic add-ons and some black accents on the outside, with upgraded equipment including a leather-wrapped steering wheel, custom seat fabric and an onboard computer.

Fiat Barchetta 2003

The Fiat Barchetta is a roadster produced by the Italian manufacturer Fiat from 1995 to 2005 (though production was paused between May 2002 and 2004). The Barchetta was developed between 1990 and 1994 under the project name Tipo B Spider 176. It was designed by Andreas Zapatinas, Peter Barrett Davis and other car designers at the Fiat Centro Stile, and prototyping was carried out by Stola. Production began in February 1995. The Barchetta was based on the chassis of the Mark 1 Fiat Punto. Its 131 PS / 96 kW engine is the 1.8 L petrol engine, with twin-cam and variable camshaft timing, which is notorious for its diesel-like clattering noise when failing. The Barchetta weighs 1060 kg (2337 lbs) without air conditioning and can accelerate to 100 km/h in 8.9 seconds. The Barchetta was revised in 2003 for its relaunch the following year, with a myriad of small alterations inside and out. Production of the car finally stopped in June 2005.
