Stellantis said it will bring an all-electric small “car” called the Fiat Topolino to the U.S.
The Topolino is actually categorized as “an all-electric quadricycle” rather than a car, according to Stellantis and has a top speed of roughly 28 miles per hour.
Fiat’s announcement comes less than a week after President Donald Trump praised small “Kei” cars from Japan and expressed interest in bringing tiny cars to the U.S.
You could not pay me to drive a Stellantis vehicle of any breed.
Absolute trash.
gosh you don’t want ads on your head unit?
Reminiscing about the halcyon days of Daimler-Chrysler, which ended with their QA getting better when they split from Daimler Benz and merged with fucking Fiat
…I had a 2005 model 300C AWD at one point. Apparently they’re not that bad if you keep up on oil changes (and fix all of the inevitable suspension bushing rot and broken steering components and cheaply made CV axles). The previous owner did not keep up on oil changes, so in spite of my best efforts, that 4ish-year ordeal ended with me narrowly missing a visit from ol’ Uncle Rodney on account of some oil sludge dislodging and clogging all the things. At least it was fun in the snow. And I don’t mean that sarcastically – it did great as long as I didn’t plow into too deep of a snowbank. RIP, gas-guzzling dadmobile. You got me from point A to point B, and got out of your own way in a big damn hurry every time.
