Fiat Ireland this week launch the stunning new Fiat 600. The New Fiat 600 takes the best of the B and B-SUV worlds to offer a beautiful, joyful, and pampered driving experience, marking the Brand’s return to the B-segments.
Available in both hybrid and fully electric, the New Fiat 600 is an ideal car for Irish roads and the perfect embodiment of the brand’s values of Italian style and sustainability.
The New Fiat 600 has a generous size of 4.17 metres length, features 5-doors, comfortably fits 5 people and 15 litres of interior storage, with exceptional front storage and a boot with up to 385 litres of load capacity.
John Saunders, Managing Director at Fiat Ireland, said, “We are excited to introduce the stunning new Fiat 600 to our lineup. Building on the enduring popularity of the iconic 500 among Irish drivers, we believe this new model will resonate just as strongly. Arriving just in time for the 242 registration period, we are confident that the Fiat 600 will significantly boost our market share in Ireland.”
The New Fiat 600, also referred to as the 500’s bigger sister, takes its name from the original 600 and brings all the Italian coolness and fresh style. Its exterior and interior design perfectly embodies the Italian beauty and Dolce Vita philosophy.
Compared to the 500, its augmented look features a sharper and more assertive face, a 600-chrome refreshed signature both on the front and on the sides, and a renewed LED lighting identity. The elegant yet dynamic exterior look is enhanced by the bigger wheels (up to 18” and a diameter of 690mm), black matt skirts and wheel arches. Several charming features highlight its exterior lines, such as the glossy black details, chrome accents and shining cues on the rear lights.
Inside, the New Fiat 600 perfectly embodies the Italian Dolce Vita thanks to several features specifically designed to offer the best pampering experience. With the La Prima version, the driver seat is equipped with seat adjustment power and a back-massage function. The New Fiat 600 La Prima also offers Ivory synthetic leather seats with FIAT monogram with turquoise accents that give a premium feel and 3 stage heating for maximum comfort.
Velour floor mats, 40/60 rear seats, USB type A & type C + type C on 2nd row, a wireless charger for smartphone and keyless entry with proximity sensor, are also available for a comfy and pleasant driving experience.
The New Fiat 600 is also packed with state-of-the-art safety and assistance features that make it ready for everyday life. It offers level 2 assisted driving, bringing all the associated benefits to your journey. Features include Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Stop&Go function, Electric Parking Brake, Autonomous Emergency Braking and Drowsy driver detection to monitor driver concentration levels.
In terms of comfort and connectivity, the New Fiat 600 is available with several features that will make every trip lot more pleasant and joyful.

A 6-speaker sound system, 10.25” fully customisable radio with Navi, CarPlay and Android Auto wireless, a 7” digital cluster and connected services complete the offer.
