Introducing Fiat Topolini, the new competitor of Citroen Ami!
As the mini electric vehicle craze continues to spread day by day, the latest name to join this trend is Fiat. Here is the Fiat Topolini in all its aspects.
Introducing Fiat Topolini, the new competitor of Citroen Ami! Fiat has recently pulled back the curtain on its latest compact electric vehicle, the Topolini EV. This newly revealed model is reminiscent of the recently ruggedized Citroen Ami, and there's a good reason for this, as both brands are subsidiaries of the automotive giant, Stellantis. The Topolini EV is smaller than the Fiat 500 series and showcases several unique features such as a retractable brown cloth roof, a fresh take on the front end design, and luxurious cream leather seats.
Underneath the bonnet, the Topolini shares the same drivetrain as the Citroen Ami, making it capable of a 47-mile (~76km) range with its 5.5kWh battery. In terms of speed, the Topolini can reach up to 28mph (~45km/h). Details about the interior of the Topolini haven't been fully revealed yet, but it's expected to closely resemble the Ami's, which includes features like a charging port and a phone holder. The Topolini is classified as a quadricycle, meaning it's free from certain licensing restrictions in city driving.

Fiat aims for the Topolini to rekindle young people's passion for cars. It's designed to represent a sustainable approach to motoring while still exuding joy, optimism, and a sense of fun. The new EV embodies Fiat's commitment to providing accessible, sustainable urban mobility solutions, aligning with the overarching mission of the Stellantis brand. This parent company has set a bold target: to achieve 100% of passenger car sales from battery electric vehicles (BEVs) by 2030.
As for the price of the Topolini, Fiat has remained mum on specifics. However, considering the Citroen Ami is available for lease in parts of Europe for a monthly payment of €25 ($27) and an initial down payment of €3,850 ($4,123), it's reasonable to anticipate that the Topolini's price tag will be in a similar ballpark.
