Compare live Fiat lease deals below from an independent, whole of market broker. Fiat does small, characterful and affordable better than almost anyone, from the 500 and the award winning Grande Panda to the family sized 600, with electric options throughout.
Fiat has a knack that bigger brands keep trying and failing to copy, which is making an inexpensive small car feel like something you chose rather than settled for. The 500 has been doing it for the best part of twenty years and the Grande Panda has picked up a stack of awards doing the same thing at family size.
It is a compact range, four models, and that is genuinely helpful. There is very little overlap, so working out which one suits you is quick. The two sections after the grid cover the only places where the badge needs a bit of explaining.
Four models, four quite different jobs.
The 500 is the city car that made Fiat fashionable again. Available as a hatchback or a convertible, and now in both electric and petrol hybrid form.
The Grande Panda is the one to look at first. It is roomier than a 500, cleverly packaged, and has collected a string of awards. Hybrid and fully electric, with a 4x4 version on the way.
The 600 is the family option, a five door crossover a little over four metres long, in hybrid or fully electric form. The newer Sport trim adds a black roof and 18 inch alloys.
The Topolino is not a car in the normal sense. It is an electric quadricycle for short local journeys, and the section below explains exactly what that means.
For a while the 500 was electric only. Fiat has since brought a petrol version back, so you now have a real choice, and the two cars are more different than the shared name suggests.
The 500 Electric is the quiet one, automatic, and cheap to run if you can charge at home. It suits short urban journeys, which is what the 500 has always been best at. The 500 Hybrid uses a 1.0 litre three cylinder petrol engine with 65 horsepower, and it is worth knowing it comes with a six speed manual gearbox and front wheel drive. If you have been driving automatics, or if you specifically want one, that is the detail to check before you get attached to a quote.
Both come as a hatchback or a convertible. The hybrid is offered in ICON and LA PRIMA trims, with a TORINO launch edition available as a hatchback only.
The Topolino is charming and it is genuinely useful for the right person, but it is not a small car. It is an electric quadricycle, and the numbers matter: a top speed of 28 mph, an 8.2 horsepower motor, a 5.4 kWh battery and a range of up to 47 miles. It charges from an ordinary domestic socket in around four hours.
In licensing terms it is a light quadricycle, which means it can be driven on an AM moped entitlement from the age of 16, and a full car licence covers it too. That makes it an interesting option for a younger driver or as a second vehicle for short local trips.
What it is not is a replacement for a car. At 28 mph it belongs on town roads and quiet lanes, not on anything fast, and 47 miles is a genuine limit rather than a conservative estimate. We mention all this up front because it is the sort of thing worth checking before you order rather than after. If a Topolino is right for you, it is delightful. If you need to get to work on an A road, one of the other three is the answer.
Fiat keeps this simpler than the premium brands, and trim names vary by model rather than running as one ladder across the range. On the 500 you will see ICON and LA PRIMA, with LA PRIMA as the more generously equipped of the two and the TORINO launch edition sitting alongside them. The Grande Panda has gained a Pop trim on the electric version, and the 600 now offers a Sport specification with a black roof and larger alloys.
Because the range is small and the trims are few, there is less risk here than with a brand running five levels and a long options list. The useful question on a Fiat is usually not which trim but which powertrain, and whether you can charge. Our leasing guides explain how mileage and contract length shape the quote, and business leasing covers the position if you are leasing through a company. Benefit in kind rates change each tax year, so take current figures from your accountant.

Both are now available. The 500 Electric is the automatic, fully electric version. The 500 Hybrid uses a 1.0 litre three cylinder petrol engine with 65 horsepower and a six speed manual gearbox. For a while the 500 was electric only, so if you looked at one a couple of years ago the petrol option is new again.
No, the 500 Hybrid is a six speed manual with front wheel drive. If you want an automatic 500, the 500 Electric is the one to look at. It is worth checking this before you settle on a quote, because the two versions share a name but not a gearbox.
The Topolino is a light quadricycle, so it can be driven on an AM moped entitlement from the age of 16, and a full category B car licence also covers it. That makes it one of the few new vehicles a sixteen year old can legally drive.
Its top speed is 28 mph and its range is up to 47 miles from a 5.4 kWh battery, charging from a domestic socket in around four hours. Those are hard limits rather than cautious estimates, so it suits short local journeys and town roads rather than fast ones.
The 600 is the family choice, a five door crossover just over four metres long in hybrid or fully electric form. The Grande Panda is worth driving too, because it is more spacious than its footprint suggests and has won a number of awards for exactly that packaging.
It comes both ways, as a hybrid and as a fully electric car, and the electric version has gained a Pop trim. A 4x4 version with an electrified rear axle has also been shown for UK showrooms.
Setting the Topolino aside, since it is a quadricycle rather than a car, the 500 is normally the most affordable way into the range. The Grande Panda is worth comparing directly against it, because it often lands closer than you would expect for considerably more space.
LetsLease is a credit broker rather than the lender. We arrange the agreement and place it with a funder such as Lex Autolease, Novuna, Ayvens or Santander, and that funder owns the vehicle and holds the agreement with you. Because we work across several funders rather than one, we can compare how each prices the same car.
