The Car Connection's Take
TCC Rating
7.0
7.6
TCC’s Bottom Line
The 2013 Fiat 500 rewards the style-conscious buyer that's willing to go small, and the Abarth and Turbo models even add in a healthy dose of sport. Small cars don't need to be bland--the 2013 Ford Fiesta proves that with a saucy look and pert handling.
