Compare Fiat 500 hybrid car service quotes from specialist garages

Fiat is known for its small-sized vehicles, like the iconic Fiat 500 and the Fiat Panda, famously one of ex-Top Gear presenter James May's favourite cars. Take a look at our list of top ten cars like the Fiat 500 here.

However, the brand has also branched out from its small-car origins, and in 2023, a Fiat E-Scudo all-electric van set a world record for the longest distance travelled by a van on a single charge, covering just over 311 miles.

Despite the earliest Fiat 500 being released all the way back in 1957, the latest iterations are still making waves, winning 'Best Small Car' at the 2022 Autocar Awards, with its electric counterpart, the 500e, winning 'Best Electric Small Car' at the 2023 WhatCar? Electric Car Awards.

Few cars can be called genuinely iconic, but the Fiat 500 is one of them. With its cheeky retro appearance and low running costs, it has long been a top choice for young drivers, and the latest version - which is all-electric - looks better than ever. Award panels agree - at the 2023 Parkers New Car Awards, the 500 won 'Small Electric Car of the Year', earning praise for its high-spec interior and performance.

Several common problems have been identified in earlier versions of the 500, including loose trim (the door handles are notorious for coming off) and worn clutches. In WhatCar?'s 2024 reliability survey, the Fiat 500 came 14th out of 15 vehicles in the small car class aged up to five years old.

Hybrid car maintenance can be expensive if you don't shop around because hybrids contain an internal combustion engine and an electric motor, both of which need to be looked after. Our maintenance price guide provides more information.

Hybrid car servicing intervals are almost identical to regular internal combustion engine vehicles. You should book a full service once a year.

Can any garage service hybrid cars? This question is common among drivers. As you might expect regarding hybrid vs petrol engine maintenance, there is a crossover between the two. Any mechanic can carry out a service on the engine, but you'll need to find a technician with specialist skills to look after the electric components involved in a hybrid car service.

Similarly, hybrid battery diagnostic testing, hybrid battery health check and hybrid car battery replacement will all need to be completed by a mechanic with the right training. Read our ultimate guide to hybrid cars to learn more about ownership and maintenance.
