I have to admit that when there was talk of a new fiat 600, I kept the secret hope that it was a recreation of the original. That is to say, something in the style of the 500. Not exactly the same, because it would not make sense for the brand to place two products so close in size on the market, but inspired by the car that powered Spain.
Finally, will replace the 500X, the compact SUV that took the image of the 500. That is to say, it will have little to do with the spirit of our beloved "pellet", although it is always exciting that a denomination that brings us so many memories is recovered. It should be remembered that, for Fiat, the 600 It was also a car of great importance, which was even sold in the United States.
It is known that it will be done on the same platform as the Jeep Avenger and that it will have a fully electric variant. In addition, you will also enjoy a gasoline version, possibly a hybrid. Its exterior dimensions are very similar to those of the 500X, while elements such as the pilots would take their inspiration from the 500. Even the logo would be very similar.
Regarding its commercialization, it is expected that the new Fiat 600 to be presented at the end of the year, that is, in a really short period, so we will not have to wait too long. Its production would start in the middle of the year in the factory that Fiat has in Tychy, in Poland, with the aim of putting it on sale in the spring of 2024.
CAUGHT: THIS IS THE NEW FIAT 600
Although spy images of the car have been published for months, it has not been until this week when we have finally met him without camouflage. It has been through a photograph published by different, where the 600 is seen in a striking red color and with the inscription "More amore" on the side.

Here we can discover the five-door configuration of a car that it shows off the inscription 600 on the heel, making it clear which model it is. Although, as we were advancing, little remains of the philosophy of the original model, it is an undoubtedly attractive car and one that fully fits into the current philosophy of the market.
Also, on the account of Twitter user Jim Magill, we have discovered a couple of extra images that only confirm our impressions regarding the new Fiat 600, which will surely become one of the most successful compact SUVs.

In conclusion, and left to choose, we are glad that brands boast of their history. In the case of Fiat, he already hit the ball with the 500 and, surely, this one too 600 it will be a success.
