FIAT 500c vs. the Competition

The New FIAT 500c Provides Top Down Excitement at a Great Price in Miami, FL

Many in Miami have always dreamed of driving a convertible, but maybe always thought the price was outside of reach. Rick Case FIAT has great news: the new FIAT 500c gives you the top down excitement you've longed for at a great price. But how does it compare to other convertibles in Davie and Fort Lauderdale? Find out, by comparing the 500c to the Volkswagen Beetle Convertible and Mini Cooper Convertible.

FIAT 500c vs. Volkswagen Beetle Convertible

• If you're looking for a great convertible that won't break the bank, the 500c is the one. The 500c starts at $16,490, which is over $8,000 more affordable than the Beetle Convertible's starting price of $24,725. At the highest trim level, the 500c Abarth is still almost $9,000 less expensive than the comparable trim of the Beetle Convertible.
• The 500c helps you save once you hit the road, too. Its fuel efficiency ratings of 31 mpg city and 38 mpg highway far exceed the Beetle Convertible's 24 mpg city and 33 mpg highway.
• Let your back seat passengers enjoy extra space, because the 500c offers more second row leg and shoulder room than the Beetle Convertible.
• The 500c offers a rear parking aid standard. The Beetle Convertible will make you pay more than $4,000 extra for this feature, because you'll have to upgrade trim levels.
• Safety is important, which is why the 500c provides standard side head and rear head air bags. Think you'll find these in the Beetle Convertible? Sorry, no.

FIAT 500c vs. Mini Cooper Convertible

• Let's start with pricing: the $16,490 starting price of the 500c is over $10,000 less expensive than the $26,700 starting price of the Mini Cooper Convertible. Move up to the 500c Abarth and it's still over $15,000 - $15,000! - more affordable than the Mini Cooper Convertible's comparable trim.
• How about avoiding the fuel pump? The 500c will help you do that more than the Mini Cooper Convertible. The 500c gets up to 31 mpg city and 38 mpg highway, better than the 28 mpg city and 37 mpg highway in the Mini Cooper Convertible.
• Make the ride more comfortable for your passengers in the 500c, which holds more leg and shoulder room in the second row than the Mini Cooper Convertible.
• Everyone could use an extra set of eyes, which is why the 500c comes with a standard rear parking aid. It's only an option in the Mini Cooper Convertible, so get ready to pay extra in an already expensive vehicle.
• The 500c comes with side head and rear head airbags standard. Unfortunately, these important safety features are missing in the Mini Cooper Convertible.
