New Fiat 500 “la Prima” hatchback <br /><br />Range and charging times are two key issues for customers. The lithium-ion batteries with 42 kWh capacity give the New 500 a range of up to 320 km in the WLTP cycle.<br /><br />To optimize charging time, the New 500 enables DC fast charge at up to 85 kW, to recharge the battery very quickly. For example, it takes only 5 minutes to build up enough of an energy reserve to travel 50 kilometers, more than necessary for average daily use. And fast charge can also replenish the battery to 80% in just 35 minutes. The “Combo 2” smart socket located on the rear right side panel of the car enables both AC and DC charging. We call it a 'smart’ socket because of its programmable charging schedule and provision of feedback on the car’s charge status. Home charging solutions are also available.
