Fiat revives classic model as electric city car

Fiat is bringing back its iconic Multipla model, reimagining it as an electric vehicle designed for modern urban challenges. The company aims to prove that a small, playful city car can be a viable solution to increasing fuel expenses and crowded streets.

The new Multipla, unveiled in Rome, eschews the typical SUV design. Instead, it embraces a retro aesthetic, drawing inspiration from its predecessors. With a length under three meters and a cabin configured for four occupants, the vehicle is presented not merely as a nostalgic design exercise but as a practical response to urban mobility needs.

The introduction of the Multipla also raises questions about its positioning within Fiat's lineup and the possibilities offered by the L7 vehicle category. The company is exploring how this compact electric vehicle fits into the broader landscape of micro-mobility solutions, as discussed by the management of the Stellantis group.
