New {2019 Fiat 124 Spider} review, price, photos, features
The Fiat 124 Spider 2019 is the new convertible of the Italian firm and retakes the nomenclature used by another cabrio that enjoyed popularity in the 70s. Share platform with the Mazda MX-5 2018, therefore will be two-seater and rear-wheel drive and it will be a global product. Aesthetically has little to do with the 'Miata', in this case the lines have been rounded and has a more retro and muscular.
Inside this model if materials and elements of the Mazda MX-5 have been used. The instrumentation and the multimedia system is the same as that of the Japanese, therefore it does not have the UConnect that the latest Fiat models carry. The canvas hood is also maintained with an easy-to-use manual opening system. Both seats are spacious, although the ceiling height is somewhat fair. The trunk has 140 liters.
The 2019 Fiat 124 Spider can be configured with three trim levels. The base, which comes standard, already has 16-inch wheels, air conditioning or gear lever in leather. Above is the Lusso finish, more complete thanks to elements such as 17-inch wheels, chrome exhaust, leather seats or automatic climate control. Also available is the special edition Fiat 124 Spider America, with a more classic look.
The range of engines of this convertible is limited to a single mechanic. This is the 1.4 MultiAir known 140 HP and 240 Nm, which appears in other models such as the Fiat 500X (see test) or the Jeep Renegade (see test). It is suitable for its low weight, although in other markets it is offered with more power. Here the only option is to opt for the Abarth 124 Spider, which is somewhat more radical and has 170 HP.
