2017 Fiat 500X Abarth styling

The 2017 Fiat 500X Abarth, as a new model, will share platform with some Jeep models, probably Renegade. With this info, we can predict some mutual features. Outside, we expect classic Fiat styling, with elegant lines and not so aggressive appearance. Bumpers and skirts will be borrowed from some other models, while the 500X Abarth gets unique spoiler. 

Rear diffuser is interesting, placed under the bumper. Dual exhaust tips are highlights of the rear end. Inside, layout is somehow more sporty than at any other Fiat vehicle. Seats and steering wheel leads this impression. Few trim options will be offered, with various equipment used. We expect upgraded infotainment and safety features for this tuned model of Fiat 500X.
