Having discontinued the 124 Spider convertible and 500L wagon for the 2021 model year, the 500X crossover is Fiat's sole remaining new model sold in the United States. Fiat's vehicles are known for their distinctive styling and customization options.

FIATs can be expensive to maintain, mainly due to their import status. Owning one for a year can cost you between $500 and $600. However, FIATs are smaller vehicles, so there aren't as many components to maintain as on a larger vehicle.

Fiats are good cars. They have an overall reliability score of 3.5 out of 5, with mixed consumer feedback indicating some areas for improvement. The Fiat car models are stylish and possess good resale value, but they also experience common mechanical challenges, leading to a varied reputation for reliability.
