Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Fiat adds the 500X Sport to the lineup. Slotting in above the Trekking, the Sport model has a new front end with LED headlamps and a Sport badge, body-color side moldings, and a restyled rear end with twin chrome exhaust tips. Eighteen-inch wheels are standard, with 19s optional. Inside, the 2020 Fiat 500X Sport features seats with added bolstering, along with simulated-suede inserts and red stitching on both the seats and the restyled, flat-bottomed steering wheel, and aluminum trim on the pedals.

Pros
Punchy turbo engine,
useful driver-assistance aids,
distinctive design.

Cons
Priced high for a subcompact SUV,
small cargo capacity,
cramped passenger quarters.
