2027 Fiat Topolino Gets Street-Legal Upgrade, Still Limited to 25 MPH
<p>Fiat launched the Topolino micro EV earlier in 2026, and it caught our attention with its adorable styling and $13,995 starting price. That’s roughly half the price of a Chevrolet Bolt, but it came with a catch: The Topolino wasn’t street-legal, limiting the charming EV’s usability.

At the same time, the 2027 Fiat Topolino also introduces a new open-air body style, fresh colors, and a new digital gauge cluster. This should boost already impressive sales.<...
