菲亚特将在巴黎车展发布500改款车，近日该车合成图曝光。从图片看，新车获得小幅升级。这辆中期改款车不仅将增加新的车身涂装，而且还将对前脸进行改款，前大灯也将重新设计，采用了新的圆形日间行驶灯。保险杠底部原来方正的雾灯将被圆形雾灯所替代。车尾可见更时尚的LED尾灯组，中间部分与车身同色并将采用新的设计。据说，新车将配备新的八速自动变速箱并搭载2.0升涡轮增压汽油引擎，该车很可能仅供美国市场。而欧版车则搭载1.6升自然进气和1.4升涡轮增压汽油引擎以及1.3/1.5升柴油引擎。至于内装，不要指望有很大升级，只是将采用更高质量材质。另外，新的信息娱乐系统将集成更大显示屏，但这一点并未获得车厂证实。

 

Fiat 500X Facelift Rendered With Minor Visual Tweaks

Namely the 500 in its rugged high-riding variant is scheduled to receive a facelift by the end of the year, and we won’t be surprised if it makes its official debut during the Paris Motor Show later in 2018. The attached renderings preview what is expected to be a quite minor refresh for the model.

 

The new mid-cycle update will go beyond colors, and will include a revised front fascia with redesigned headlights and new circular daytime running lights, as previewed by our exclusive virtual drawings. The square fog lamps in the lower part of the bumper will be replaced by new round lamps. A set of more stylish LED taillights with a central section painted in body color will be the only new design element at the backside.

 

We’ve heard Fiat could give its small SUV a new eight-speed automatic gearbox, as well as a 2.0-liter turbo gasoline engine, most likely only for the U.S. market. In Europe, expect to see 1.6-liter naturally aspirated and 1.4-liter turbo gas units, as well as 1.3- and 1.6-liter diesels.

 

As far as the interior is concerned, don’t look for big improvements, as only some trims and materials will be replaced for a higher-quality overall feeling. A new infotainment system with even larger display could be in the works, too, but nothing is confirmed.
