Facts about Fiat 500L
- The Fiat 500L was first introduced in the UK in 2012.
- It is a mini MPV that competed with the Citroën C3 Picasso, Vauxhall Meriva, and Ford B-Max.
- The name and many of its style elements were drawn from the ever-popular Fiat 500 city car.
- Its overall design, however, is much more inspired by the Fiat Punto.
- Despite attempting to be a variation of the Fiat 500, the 500L was generally compared with the Fiat Panda which was quite popular in Italy but not so much elsewhere in Europe.
- Europe, particularly Italy, was by far the 500L’s biggest market.
- The 500L was the first car to adopt polycarbonate glazing (only for the rear quarter glass).
- It was also the first mass-produced car to come with an in-car espresso machine.
- Assembly of the 500L was done at the Fiat Serbia plant in Kragujevac, Serbia.
- The Fiat 500L was discontinued in the UK in 2021.

Frequently asked questions about Fiat 500L
Is the Fiat 500L discontinued in the UK?
Yes. Fiat discontinued production of the Fiat 500L in 2021. The 500L was poorly timed as it was released at a time when MPV sales were sharply declining in Europe in favour of SUVs and it was too early to get hybrid engine variants as many competitors that outlasted it did.
Is the Fiat 500L a good car?
The Fiat 500L received mixed reviews and is neither the best nor worst car of its class one can buy. Compared to other Fiat models of the time, it had much better reliability, but Fiat itself tends to rank very poorly in terms of reliability to begin with - even dead last, depending on rankings. It was praised for having reasonably good fuel economy, a spacious interior, and being quite affordable.
Is the Fiat 500L bigger than the 500?
Yes. The Fiat 500L is bigger than the Fiat 500. The 500L measures approximately (in length x width x height) 4.1 x 1.8 x 1.7 metres whereas the 500 measures approximately 3.5 x 1.6 x 1.5 metres. Consequently, the 500L feels (and is) more spacious inside and appears a little bigger from the outside than the 500.
Is the Fiat 500L a safe car?
When the Fiat 500L was released in 2012, it received a full 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating and was considered very safe at that time. This rating expired in 2019, however, and the 500L from later model years may no longer be considered as safe. Nevertheless, the safety features help make the 500L a reasonably safe car.
How long does a Fiat 500L last?
The typical lifespan of a Fiat 500L is approximately 140,000 to 200,000 miles at most. With typical daily driving habits, this could lead to a lifespan of around 5-10 years. Note that the 500L tends to have a great starting price but a sharply declining depreciation rate, so its value tends to be quite low when used.
