How to spot one
Look for
- Large round headlights, shaped more aggressively than on the 500 or 500L.1
- Bright nose trim and a clamshell hood.1
- A 5-door crossover body, much larger than the Fiat 500 city car.36
- Launch UK Cross models add roof rails, unique bumpers and satin-silver detailing.1
- 2022 Hybrid models have black cladding around the wheel arches and along the lower doors.10
Year by year
- August 2018 (UK)
Fresh headlights mark the facelift; Urban, City Cross and Cross Plus replace the earlier trim ladder.2
- 2019 (U.S.)
Bumpers reshaped at both ends; Pop gains LED daytime running lights and taillights alongside projector headlights.7
