In this video I review what is good and bad about this 2015 Fiat 500X Pop Star in this very classy green. I have to say I was surprised, it was better than I expected.

I like how you describe how controls feel in fine details. Some auto reviewers talk about cars in such general terms, that after listening to them for 15 minutes you realise you barely learnt anything about a car. What I haven't seen is probably fuel efficiency, is something people look at when they choose a car, but I assume it's very average, just like all other cars, which is almost a moto for this car :) And also the information is out so no big deal. Over all a great review.

I agree and thank you. Fuel economy is a difficult one. I would say be careful spending thousands to try and save a few quid on fuel a week.

I have Fiat 500x automatic. Yes, its steering and engine is a bit strange when compared to VW electric, but it has nice interior.

Yeah it doesn’t drive like a Beemer but then it costs only a quarter. I’ve owned a 140hp 500x petrol for two years now and while I’m nor a fan of SUV’s either, I love it to death. The stereo, which is standard is quite good as you mention, the center console navigation screen never catches the sunlight to blind me unlike my old Clio iv which was annoyingly reflectice, and every drive is a joyous and cherished occasion again, unlike my old Clio which was so unmemorable that often I forgot when I had driven it. I had a VW Polo once and it was downright depressing to drive. I’ve tested Mazda 3 current an previous generation as well as Ford Fiesta, Volvo V40 and Kia’s and didn’t really take to any of them for various reason. My 500x might not be objectively the best car in the world, but it manages to be the best car that does not annoy me in any major way. Actually, on tight country roads my 500x makes me smile. I’ve owned three other Fiats and loved them all: 127, Bravo, Stilo and apart from the old 127 which was already long in the tooth when I got it, I’ve never, ever had any reliability issues.

I went with a 2013 Mazda 3 for my first car. The handling was what sold me on it after a test drive; it's so damn snappy and fun to drive. The steering is excellent. Not exactly bursting with power but has plenty for me.

With regards to the Volvo, unless I’m mistaken it’s a feature some cars have to make steering in slow speed scenarios, easier. Say when you’re parking or manoeuvring, having much lighter steering helps.
@ConquerDriving3 жыл бұрын
That's true, but it should give some more weight as speed increases.

If animal jump on the road, press horn immediately, check mirror inside the car to see if there’s anyone behind you. Itheres no one, press brake. If not, just horn and hit the animal. You need to check everything as fast as possible ofc. If human show up on the road, just press break, also add horn if you have time. No big science, there’s no time for anything else.

@zazazaaazzzaaz4 жыл бұрын
MOB MOB hard truth, but it’s you or them. U need to protect yourself first. In the end animal is the one who endanger you by jumping on road, not other way around. When it comes to damage on a car, that’s not priority in that moment, it’s safety again. If is some small animal, most likely damage will not be great if none, if it’s bigger animal tho, it depends how big it is. But remember if animal is not really that close, horn can scared them away.

@@ConquerDriving To be honest, I'm not sure of what the difference is but I think SUV's should have all wheel drive and genuine off road ability. Crossovers being just tall versions of a normal car made to look butch. It seems to be that most SUV/crossovers are fashion statements. The 'command' driving position is great but not if everyone on the road has one.

Driving instructors use the car for themselves, and in a way it's like their office... That's why they are quite luxurious and powerful compared to a realistic first car
@ConquerDriving4 жыл бұрын
Smaller cars aren't always the easiest to park in my experience, there are other more important factors to make a car easier to park. Higher quality cars are easier to drive and more refined. A powerful petrol is more forgiving when you get the wrong gear and finally if you're a full time driving instructor sitting in something like an Aygo for 10 hours a day is draining and I will not be on point. The fiat is not a driving school car, this is a car my other business is selling.
