Celebrating 125 Years of FIAT
In celebration of FIAT’s 125th anniversary, the brand has announced a significant partnership with Giorgio Armani, resulting in the FIAT 500e Giorgio Armani Edition. This collaboration between two globally recognized Italian icons showcases the finest expression of ‘Made in Italy’ on four wheels.
A Fusion of Design and Craftsmanship
Building on their successful collaboration in 2020, FIAT and Giorgio Armani have again joined forces to create a true instant classic. The 500e Giorgio Armani is a car designed to be “worn,” not just driven. It is a masterpiece born from the combined expertise of FIAT’s Centro Stile and the Armani Style Centre. Every detail—from the materials to the colours—reflects a meticulous commitment to craftsmanship, mirroring the approach of creating a couture fashion collection.
Exclusive Design Details
Produced exclusively at FIAT’s Mirafiori plant in Turin, the 500e Giorgio Armani is available as a hatchback, perfectly blending elegance and audacity. Two bespoke colours define its aesthetic appeal:
- Dark Green Micinalised, a contemporary shade inspired by Giorgio Armani’s refined style.
- Ceramic Greige, an innovative blend of grey and beige, exuding sophistication.
The car’s monochromatic exterior reduces contrasts and decorations, embodying Giorgio Armani’s pure and essential design philosophy. Exclusive wheels featuring a macro GA logo enhance both the car’s identity and aerodynamic performance.
Luxurious Interior Craftsmanship
Inside, the 500e Giorgio Armani delivers a luxurious experience with chevron stitching and three-dimensional patterns reminiscent of classic tailoring techniques. Premium materials like laser-cut wood on the dashboard and intricate embroidery create a harmonious balance between tradition and innovation. Signature Armani elements, including logos on the seats and dashboard, further elevate its exclusivity.
State-of-the-Art Technology
The 500e Giorgio Armani is equipped with advanced features such as full LED Infinity Design headlamps, a glass roof, and a premium JBL audio system. A 7″ TFT display and a 10.25″ touchscreen with wireless CarPlay and Android Auto integration ensure connectivity on the go.
Performance and Sustainability
Powered by an 87 kW (118 hp) electric motor, the 500e Giorgio Armani offers a range of up to 199 miles (WLTP combined cycle). Its advanced Level 2 assisted driving system reflects FIAT’s commitment to sustainable and forward-thinking mobility solutions.
Availability and Pricing
The FIAT 500e Giorgio Armani will be available for orders later in 2024, with UK deliveries expected by early 2025. This limited-edition car combines timeless Italian style with cutting-edge electric technology, making it a true icon of the FIAT brand.
