Fiat is adding some spice to its lineup with the electric 500e after a stretch when it had only one vehicle in the U.S., the 500X.

At the 2022 Los Angeles Auto Show, Fiat CEO Olivier Francois said the brand is bringing the 500e back to the U.S. to take advantage of the industry’s electric “revolution.”

Fiat doesn’t expect to do big volume with the 500e, Francois said, and there are no plans to expand the portfolio further.

500e: The redesigned 500e is scheduled to reach the U.S. in the first quarter of 2024. The reveal is slated to take place at the L.A. show in November.

500X: Francois told MotorTrend the 500X crossover won’t be replaced with another model once its product cycle ends. A spokesperson said 500X sales will continue in 2024.
