This year marks the 120th anniversary of the FIAT brand.
To mark the occasion, FIAT announced today the new 2019 Fiat
500X 120th Anniversary Edition, a custom-appearance package that
adds a black-painted accent-color roof, creating a two-tone
exterior paint scheme. Additional features on the special-edition
model include unique 18-inch black-finish wheels, LED headlamps,
120th anniversary exterior badging, and black body-side moldings
and mirror caps. Inside, the 500X 120th Anniversary Edition
features a black-painted instrument panel.
"With standard intelligent all-wheel drive and an all-new
1.3-liter turbocharged engine that generates best-in-class torque,
our Italian-designed Fiat 500X is built to turn heads in one of the
fastest growing segments in the industry," said Tim Kuniskis, Head
of Passenger Car Brands – Dodge, SRT, Chrysler and FIAT –
North America. "This
special-edition Fiat 500X offers customers a sleek, new
customization option."
Designed and manufactured in Italy, the new 2019 Fiat 500X features an
all-new, standard-equipped 1.3-liter turbocharged engine with the
latest iteration of the FCA exclusive MultiAir (called MultiAir
III) valve-actuation technology, engine stop-start (ESS) technology
and best-in-class torque. Also standard are a nine-speed automatic
transmission and an intelligent all-wheel-drive system that
utilizes a disconnecting rear axle by reducing parasitic loss when
all-wheel drive is not needed. This contributes to improved fuel
economy of up to 3 miles per gallon compared to the outgoing
engine.
In addition to new front and rear fascia designs, the new 2019
Fiat 500X crossover offers LED headlamps (included with the 120th
Anniversary Edition), fog lamps and nearly 70 safety and security
features that now include adaptive cruise control and Front Park

Tri-coat), Bianco Gelato
(White Clear Coat) and Nero Cinema (Black Clear Coat).
The 120th Anniversary Edition package is available for
$995 on the 500X Pop model, which
starts at $24,740 U.S. MSRP,
excluding destination.
