Fiat 500e Electric 2021 review - Does the basic £20k Action model still add up? / Electrifying

We're big fans of the new pure-electric Fiat 500. So big in fact we've named it as our Car of the Year 2021, but up to now we've only tried the top-spec La Prima model with a 199-mile range. Does the basic car at £20,000 with a smaller range and less standard equipment stack up?

The new Fiat 500 only comes as a pure-electric, but just like before there are hatchback and Convertible versions. In fact, the new Fiat 500 Electric Convertible is the only four-seater pure-electric drop-top on sale.

But what's life like on the bottom rung? The 500 range kicks off at around £20,000 and for that you get the Action model – it still retains the same style as the top-spec models, but it does without some luxuries like alloy wheels and LED headlights. It also does without the larger 42kWh battery and instead gets a 24kWh battery with a 115-mile range (as opposed to up to 199 miles with the 42kWh models).

So, with less spec and range, does the Action model actually stack up? Nicki Shields finds out.
