Fiat 500e
The Fiat 500e blends iconic Italian design with a compliance-era electric powertrain, making it one of the most stylish and affordable entry points into the used EV market.
Typical sold price of a Fiat 500e ranges from $2,016 to $27,959, based on 167 sales tracked on Hypercars. 57 currently for sale.
The Fiat 500e was a 'compliance car' built from 2013 to 2019 so Fiat Chrysler could meet California's strict zero-emission vehicle mandates. It was sold exclusively in California and Oregon, and FCA's then-CEO, Sergio Marchionne, famously admitted the company lost about $14,000 on every unit. Despite this, the car itself was well-regarded for retaining the standard 500's chic Italian style and fun driving dynamics, just with an electric motor and a 24 kWh battery pack.
The 500e isn't a traditional collector car, but its unique history, limited regional availability, and stylish design give it a special appeal. It represents an interesting chapter in early modern EV development. Today, it's one of the most affordable used EVs you can buy, with an average transaction price well under $10,000. Many have become fun, cheap city cars, but the market is highly dependent on battery health and mileage.
Buying Tips
- The battery's state of health (SOH) is the most important factor. Expect a significant reduction from the original 84-mile EPA range, especially on older cars. Get a full report if possible.
- Test both Level 1 (120V) and Level 2 (240V) charging. The onboard charging module is a known failure point, and repairs can be expensive.
- Check for the 'Service Shifter' or 'Service Charging System' warnings on the dash, which can indicate costly electronic issues.
- Since it was a compliance car, parts and service expertise can be hard to find outside of California and Oregon. Confirm you have a local mechanic willing to work on it.
- Inspect the orange high-voltage cables for any cracks, fraying, or damage.
