Great car. Looks good. Tons of space in back. Roomier than most small hatchbacks and has cruise control.

If you want a lot of car for not a lot of money then look no further! We have 2 of these (we love them so much). Firstly the engine; a 1.6 multi jet diesel with fantastic punch, smooth execution and pretty quiet on the ears too! Both ours are ‘Lounge’ spec so they’re well equipped too. We have both the standard 500L and the MPW.. both are spacious and comfortable (though I do miss an arm rest on the driver’s seat, considering this is the highest model and that technically, they’re MPVs I’d have expected an arm rest. In the 500L you get parking sensors, multimedia touch screen player with USB connectors and Bluetooth, electric windows & door mirrors, hill start and ABS, city steering , tyre pressure monitors, stop start and a full pan glass roof. The MPW is virtually the same but the roof is upgraded to a glass sunroof (both models have an electric blind). The MPW also has 2 extra seats that fold in the boot (suitable for kids up to about 8 years old and that’s about it!).. the boot space is however, cavernous! Plenty of power in these cars, we even pull our folding camper with the MPW). Highly recommended!

I like that it looks different to other similar cars but read that the automatic gear is not very good so put me off.

Fiat 500L (2013-present) Pros and Cons
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Versatile and practical cabin | Basic standard of finish |
| Available with five or seven seats | Poor real-world economy of TwinAir models |
| Cheap used car prices | Not at all sporty to drive |
Quick Summary
The Fiat 500L (2013-present) is a versatile and practical compact MPV that offers surprising interior space despite its modest external dimensions. With an upright cabin design, generous headroom and legroom in the front, and large side windows, it provides an airy feel. The standard 500L offers around average boot space for an MPV, whilst the stretched MPW version seats seven and combines generous interior space with a manageable external footprint. The cabin features cheerful, wipe-clean plastics with chunky switches and dials, making it practical for families, though some may find the materials basic.
The 500L delivers a comfortable rather than sporty drive, with soft springs and long-travel suspension that absorb bumps well. Steering is light but slow, helping reduce body roll. Engine choice is crucial: the TwinAir unit struggles when loaded and delivers poor real-world economy, whilst the 1.4-litre petrol engines are smoother and more efficient. The 1.3-litre Multijet diesel is particularly impressive, achieving up to 70.6mpg. Residual values are weak, making low-mileage pre-owned models excellent value. The 500L earned a five-star Euro NCAP rating and comes well-equipped on higher trims with optional Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Best for: Families seeking a practical, versatile MPV with flexible seating, budget-conscious buyers looking for affordable used models, and those wanting a compact seven-seater option.
Not ideal for: Drivers prioritising sporty handling, those seeking premium cabin materials, or buyers considering TwinAir petrol engines due to poor real-world fuel economy.
Comparison vs Key Rivals
| Vehicle | CarGurus Expert Rating | CarGurus User Rating | Good/Great deals % | Overall CarGurus Rating |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fiat 500L | 3/5 | 4.8/5 | 32.4% | 4.1/5 |
| Ford B-Max | 5/5 | 4.4/5 | 31.7% | 4.4/5 |
| Citroën C3 Picasso | 4/5 | 4.4/5 | 34.5% | 4.2/5 |
| Kia Venga | 2/5 | 4.5/5 | 35.5% | 3.9/5 |
The Verdict
You should buy the 500L if: You need a practical, versatile family MPV with flexible seating options, you're on a budget seeking affordable used models, or you want a compact seven-seater.
Consider alternatives if: You prioritise sporty handling, premium cabin materials, or require excellent real-world fuel economy across all engine options.
Competitive Position: The Fiat 500L is a strong contender in the compact MPV segment, offering excellent versatility and practicality at competitive prices. Whilst the Ford B-Max scores higher for expert rating and overall appeal, the 500L's flexible seating arrangements and lower purchase prices make it an attractive option for budget-conscious families. The Citroën C3 Picasso offers similar practicality, whilst the Kia Venga, though offering good value, scores lower for driving experience. The 500L's weak residual values work in the buyer's favour when purchasing used, making it one of the most affordable compact MPVs available.
