Kbb.com Names 2012 FIAT 500 The Coolest New Car for 2011

June 24, 2011 - PRLog -- This news comes in just in time for the summer! Kelley Blue Book, aka kbb.com, named the 2012 FIAT 500 as the 2011 Coolest New Car Under $18,000.

Based on rankings from editors at kbb.com, the 2012 FIAT 500 was ranked the No. 1 pick on their ‘Cool Cars’ list. Editors have chosen our little FIAT because of its starting MSRP of $15,000, Italian styling, timeless functionality, fuel efficiency, innovative technology and how it offers more than a half-million ways to stylize and personalization features – all at an amazing value.

Kelley Blue Book’s kbb.com said of the Fiat 500, “Regardless of what the Hello Kitty mafia would like to believe, cute isn’t cool. Not usually, anyway. But that’s because cute is rarely backed up by substance, as it is in the 2012 Fiat 500. It’s seven inches shorter than a Mini Cooper and positively adorable, but spend a day driving Fiat’s first U.S. offering in 28 years, and you’ll discover a comfortable, livable, well-built sub-compact car that just happens to have 10 times the personality of some of its cookie-cutter competitors.”

About the 2012 Fiat 500:
