Fiat’s compact SUV loses its roof for the first time.

Italian marque Fiat has taken the covers off limited-edition ‘Yachting’ variants of its 2021 Fiat 500X small SUV and 2021 Fiat 500C hatchback.

The duo are headlined by soft-top retractable sunroofs – already fitted to the 500C, but all-new for its bigger 500X sibling – plus metallic blue exterior paint, chrome trim, and custom badging on the B-pillar and front quarters. The 500X appears to be fitted with 18-inch alloy wheels, while 16-inch alloys come standard on the smaller 500C.

Inside, both cars’ cabins are trimmed in white leather. Images suggest the 500C will be fitted with an automatic transmission and a cream-coloured dashboard, while the 500X will benefit a manual gearbox and mahogany trim.

Drivetrain specification are not yet known, however the 500X will likely derive power from a 1.4-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine. A 1.2-litre naturally-aspirated four-cylinder mill is expected in the 500C.

CarAdvice has contacted to Fiat Australia for comment on local availability of the new model variants. This story will be updated when more information becomes available.

In Australia, the standard Fiat 500X is priced from $24,990 before on-road costs in entry-level, front-wheel drive Pop guise, while the Fiat 500C is priced from $25,250 before on-roads in its most affordable Lounge form.
