Same as it ever was with the family version of the Fiat 500

The Fiat 500L is a car we’re pretty familiar with by now. Take one regular 500, pump it full of growth hormones and what you’re left with is the 500L — a far more practical take on the hugely popular little supermini.

With the latest 500L, not a whole lot has changed. There’s a slightly revised exterior, a more minimalistic interior and a greater focus on technology — the new seven-inch touchscreen infotainment and improved driver assistance systems grab headlines here.

On the whole, though, the latest Fiat 500L is much the same as its predecessor. The engine line-up is the same, as is the car’s overall image. However, those slight alterations to the exterior, as well as the redesigned interior help to keep the 500L looking relatively fresh — if a little awkwardly proportioned.
