LET'S GET MOVING
With two responsive transmission options and available Sport Mode, the FIAT® 500 is ready for action.
TRANSMISSIONS
It’s all about control. Shift with precision, accelerate with authority and brake quickly with the responsive five-speed manual transmission—standard on all models. The six-speed automatic transmission—available on all models—lets you experience excellent performance. It provides responsive full-throttle launches, quick wide-open-throttle upshifts and smooth two-step kick-down shifts.
SPORT MODE
Sport Mode—available on all models—unleashes the full power of the turbo engines, providing specific engine calibrations to help maximize horsepower and torque. It increases steering feedback to the driver and pedal-to-engine throttle response for more spirited handling. In addition, changes to the transmission shift schedules provide more sporty shifting (on automatic transmission-equipped models). Sport Mode is especially useful when driving on winding roads where more precise handling is desired.
