Buying the 2013 Fiat 500e
No 2013 Fiat 500e is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. Here is the 2013 Fiat 500e for buyers: fuel use, size, recalls and a test drive that lasts a week.
What to check on the 500e
In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Owners filed 16 complaints with NHTSA, most often about electrical system, fuel/propulsion system and engine; have those parts checked.
The figures, translated
The powertrain here is the electric motor with front-wheel drive and a 1-speed automatic. Being electric, it is quiet and quick from a stop, and it charges at home, at work or at public chargers. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
Energy use is rated at 18.0 kWh/100 km, about 54 kWh for 300 km. The EPA rates its range at 140 km. Winter cold and fast highway driving cut that down. That works out to about $2.70 per 100 km at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$650 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Living with the 500e
Low and compact, it is a car for the drive more than the cargo. With 198 litres of luggage space by the EPA's measure, it takes about a large suitcase and a couple of soft bags.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits a summer weekend or a special occasion more than a move.
A longer test drive
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. A week with the 500e answers more than any brochure. Rent the 500e first, and buy only if it fits your life.
Money matters
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Charging at home usually costs less than public fast charging. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
Choosing the right one
A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
