The Fiat 500X reduces the model lineup for 2023 dropping the Trekking and Trekking Plus trims.
The 500X is similar in size to a subcompact hatch. As a result, the 500X saves on fuel and is easy to maneuver in the city, and parallel parking should be a snap with its short wheelbase. In addition to being smaller than most other crossovers, the 500X is a reasonably priced option as well.
