The news of the official presentation of the project comes
soon after its world media debut was pushed forward last
month from its original date of 15th September, to coincide
with the opening of the Frankfurt IAA, to 4th July, the
symbolic date that the original Fiat 500 model, from which
the new car draws so much inspiration from, was launched
exactly 50 years ago. Fiat firmly hope the new 500 will
capture the imagination in just the same way that the first
model literally 'motorised' the Italian nation in the
post-year years. The new 500 will be built at the Tychy
factory in Poland, currently home to the Panda and Seicento,
and which is currently undergoing major investment ahead of
the start of full production this summer. If demand is
strong, the 500 will also be assembled by Fiat's joint
venture company, Tofas, in Turkey.
