Based on the same platform as the Jeep Renegade, the crossover is offered with two familiar four-cylinder gasoline engines, a 1.4-liter MultiAir Turbo four-cylinder with an output of 160 horsepower and 184 lb-ft (250 Nm) of torque and a naturally-aspirated 2.4-liter Tigershark MultiAir2 unit producing 180 hp and 175 lb-ft (237 Nm) of torque.
The turbo engine is offered as standard with a six-speed manual transmission, while the 2.4-liter unit can be had exclusively with a nine-speed automatic transmission on all-wheel-drive and front-wheel-drive models.
Just like the Renegade, the 2016 Fiat 500X is available with all-wheel drive with disconnecting rear axle which allows for reduced parasitic loss when all-wheel-drive capability is not needed, improving fuel efficiency. The crossover is equipped with a Dynamic Selector system, which allows the driver to choose from three modes (Auto, Sport and Traction +) according to driving conditions.
In the U.S., the model will be available in 12 exterior colors and five trim levels: Pop, Easy, Lounge, Trekking and Trekking Plus. The Trekking and Trekking Plus models feature a more rugged appearance thanks to unique front and rear fascia designs, and satin silver accents.
In terms of equipment, the 500X is available with features like Uconnect 6.5 radio with a 6.5-inch high-resolution touchscreen and navigation, Bluetooth streaming audio, Uconnect Access Via Mobile, a 3.5-inch color thin-film transistor (TFT) cluster display, Keyless Enter-N-Go, as well as heated front seats and steering wheel.
Fiat says the 500X offers up to 70 standard and available safety and security features, including Forward Collision Warning-Plus, LaneSense Departure Warning-Plus, Blind-spot Monitoring and Rear Cross Path detection. Electronic stability control (ESC) with Hill-start Assist and electronic roll mitigation is standard on all models, as are seven air bags.
