Fiat’s 500 family could be the template for future C or D segment models, global brand chief Olivier Francois has hinted in an interview with just-auto.
He said it could be the company would market models around the world under the same family identity, rather than having different names in different countries, and spin a number of body styles off the same platform.

Speaking during the launch of the 500X crossover model in Italy, Francois also indicated that Fiat is looking at larger models for the future. He said: “Small cars have been our bread and butter but we can’t live on bread and butter alone. We need some jam and have to look further at crossovers as well as premium and aspirational models, segments beyond A and B.”
