Fiat 500L Owner's Manual

About The 500L

Starting production in 2012 the Fiat 500L is the high-roof MPV version of the revived “500” line of cars that originally started in the 1970s.

These owner’s manuals for each model year provide you with all the necessary information for operating your new 500L.

The platform that the 500L is built on is shared across many of the brands owned by the parent company such as the Jeep Renegade and the new Tipo.

This 500L saw a spin-off version that had a longer wheelbase in 2018 called the 500L Living that can seat 7 occupants.

Also, the 500L Living was renamed in 2018 to the 500L Wagon.

Engine options for the 500L range from a 900cc turbo gasoline for Chinese and emerging markets all the way through to a 1.6-liter diesel.

Buyers are able to choose from a range of automatic and manual transmissions with 5 or 6 gears.

Many trims exist for the 500L from the entry-level Pop all the way up to a Sport with leather interior and built-in satellite navigation.

A 2018 update was released that upgraded the exterior styling and added an LCD screen in the dashboard for the instrument cluster.

Tests have indicated that the 500L has “Good” safety all around apart from the small overlap frontal test that plagues a lot of manufacturers since it was introduced recently.

It is said that this is because manufacturers haven’t had time to optimize their vehicles for this test yet.

2022 Discontinuation

The final Fiat 500L rolled off the production line in 2022 with the 600 model taking over in the slot.

The 600 is an all-electric mini SUV with an all-electric flavor being offered by the Italian automaker under the 600e trim name.
