New 2021 Fiat 500 e EV drive review // The Late Brake Show

[@SV-ug6nd]

Jonny is honestly one of the few that has gone from traditional media to social media and is really good at it. May it be reviews like this one, in-depth geeky videos, updates on his personal fleet or anything involving Richard Porter. It's always enjoyable.

I had one of the original 500es! Glad you mentioned that one. It was my first-ever EV, I leased one here in San Diego from 2014 to 2017 for my 60-mile round-trip commute. It was a really fun little car, and with some creative packing, could fit my entire drum set in the back, leaving the passenger seat open. I wish they added DC charging and more range over the years, but they didn't seem interested. Ended up replacing it with an i3, and then a Model 3 after that. This looks like a perfect successor. I kind of hope it makes it back here one day, I might just have one in my driveway again...

@@alanmay7929 I love the Honda E, probably more than the 500e but is it way better stylistically? I tend to like the Honda e a little bit more but I can totally see how someone might like the FIAT more. The inside of the Honda E is a bit cooler and funkier, the inside of the FIAT maybe a little bit more stylish. The outside of the Fiat is more elegant and cuter whilst the outside of the Honda is more interesting (modern?). Both great cars really.

@@ewadge The 500e seems to be in sort of a middle ground. Stylish, but not too fancy (although it looks good, it's not a fridge), range and "ev stuff" pretty good, but not excelent, and for an attractive price. I think FIAT here got the best compromise.

Not sure how those VW electric vehicles can be compared with this Italian beauty (sans front grill)...

[@nevco8774]

Most probably FIAT500e will compete in city car ICE segment together with Honda E as John stated while VW is competing in its own bigger category. No new EV is going to steal sales from each other but rather from ICE versions. That is great since, let's face it, the choice range in EV is far less than in ICE world for now so the more EV choices the better. And by the way, despite drone views for this car made in California for its commercials online, the car itself will not be available for sale in North America unfortunately. So no global audience for now sadly.

The production values of this video are outstanding. The use of the slides to show vehicle comparisons and represent information graphically was really informative. Great work.

[@kidoctane]

@@mylesclark1757 Hum - the Abarth 500/595/695 is a somewhat of a mainstream version - there have been some limited edition versions (like the outrageously priced Biposto). Although not a huge seller its been a consistent seller for over 10 years. My point is that while the 500e is undoubtedly pricey now there are ppl who will pay that sort of money for an interesting small car. It is early days for the EV market so all EV cars are pricey - the 500e seems competitively priced against its opposition. I expect that over time that EV car prices will reduce as numbers increase and they become more mainstream Me - assuming that the 500e is released in my country (Australia) and its priced comparable to an Abarth .......Hello and take my $$$

Another nice Vlog with great camera work, imagery, and sound/music👍! Love your honest reviews pointing out all the good and bad, and even what other cars are better choices, have better options, and prices! Love the looks of the 500e and the slightly larger dimensions and wheels (actually not a bad look for you as well with your outfit). Cool little touch with the way they integrated the "e" inside the 0 of the 500. Nice interior, the center display didn't look like some slapped on iPad like some other vehicles, and the built in wireless phone chargers are nice. Sounded like it had a really nice quite interior, good soundproofing, and the motor didn't sound whiny or droning inside the cab while you were talking or as it was driving by on the exterior shots. Only 4 things I could pick out that i didn't like were, 1: The musical start/stop is a cute touch that could be fun to show off, but I imagine after hearing it dozens and dozens of times it could get annoying. 2: I wish the roof would tuck down further for better rear visibility. 3: Don't like the location of the switches in the center console because they seem like they could be accidentally hit easily. 4: Really don't like the electric door releases. If you have an electrical problem, how do you open the door? Break a window to get out? I prefer a hard connection with a normal cable latch, because even if the handle or cable broke both doors wouldn't be broken at the same time, the way electrically operated doors could be, and you could climb across to use the other door. When every single thing is electrically operated on an electric car it starts to seem gimmicky and unnecessary, and just an extra power drain on the battery (even if it's just a tiny fraction of power that it uses). Ditch power door handles, get rid of touch screen digital controls for the radio (leave the connections on the steering wheel for safety, not having to move your hands and eyes), leave the climate controls as dials and switches or levers, and no power operated steering column adjustments that add heavy motors. That all being said it's still a really nice car that I would buy....but probably look for someone to modify the doors to some standard Fiat door handles!

To see you on the verge on 200k, putting out cracking videos and that you are loving doing it, is an incredible achievement Jonny! Looking forward to seeing everything you do next!

I don't know who filmed this for you but I have to say that was a superb piece of work. Being fairly local it was strange seeing a review set in Digbeth but it was excellent. The car look great too.
