First 2024 Fiat 500e electric vehicles arrive in Canada

-

The first 2024 Fiat 500e batteryele­ctric vehicles (BEV) have arrived in Canada. The first shipment of Italian-built vehicles docked in Halifax, Nova Scotia, late Friday and will first make their way to Canadian consumers in Quebec and British Columbia. An all-new, all-electric take on the FIAT brand’s most storied and iconic model, the two-door fully electric Fiat 500e arrives on this side of the Atlantic as the first BEV offering from Stellantis.

The 500e is Canada’s lowest 2024 model-year MSRP electric vehicle with a starting price of $42,190 ($39,995 MSRP plus additional fees) and is positioned to optimize government EV rebate eligibilit­y with up to $5,000 in federal rebates and up to $7,000 in provincial rebates. Its availabili­ty will expand to other provinces as production ramps up.

Last week, the FIAT brand also launched its national advertisin­g campaign starring legendary Academy Award-winning director Spike Lee and Emmynomina­ted actor Giancarlo Esposito. In addition to the launch spot, more than a dozen pieces of creative content featuring Lee and Esposito will run across FIAT brand’s social media channels, extolling the virtues of the legendary 500 (cinquecent­o) in its newest and electric incarnatio­n.
