Curvier than the old Cinquecento but perhaps not quite as cute. Stylish interior, low prices and affordable running costs all appeal to younger motorists.

Curvier than the old Cinquecento but perhaps not quite as cute. Stylish interior, low prices and affordable running costs all appeal to younger motorists. Feels better built than the old Cinq and rides better. 900 is a bit underpowered, Sporting is worth the extra for all round ability.

 Around city up to 30mph is excellent to drive and park and acceleration is nippy up to 20mph. It is what it is, a city car.
