At the
Geneva International Show Fiat will trot out another
trimmed edition of the Fiat 500; dubbed the "500 GQ" it
is the result of a collaboration with Gentlemen's
Quarterly, the men's magazine published by Condé Nast
which tries to set style and culture trends across the
world each month.
Available for purchase
next June, a showcar of the new version will be on
exhibit at the Fiat booth. This model stands from its
sisters thanks to a two-tone matt grey/carbon black
livery.
This new special series which about to be marketed is
based on the 500S with a few trimming changes including
two-tone paintwork (metallic grey/black), the
chrome-plated mirror covers, 16" alloy rims and a 'GQ'
logo on the B-pillar, as well as some extra features: an
orange 500 logo on the hub caps, orange brake callipers
(only on the 100 HP 1.4 engine version) and grey
aesthetic liner.
Similarly, the car features the orange Fiat 500 GQ logo
fitted on the dashboard and leather seats with matching
stitching. Specifically, the new upholstery was designed
to offer the best possible ergonomics, along with
comfort and character. The internal look of the car is
completed by the sports pedal unit with aluminium effect
and the leather gear knob.
Available in the saloon and convertible configurations,
the new Fiat 500 GQ can be equipped with the 69 HP 1.2,
85 HP 0.9 TwinAir and 100 HP 1.4 petrol engines, as well
as the 95 HP 1.3 MultiJet (all combined with a manual
gearbox).
