It was 4 March 2004 and Fiat presented the Trepiuno at the Geneva Motor Show (read the full design story here), a concept car designed by Roberto Giolito, now head of FCA Heritage, which anticipated the return of the Fiat 500. To celebrate the anniversary, Stellantis Heritage created the 500 Tributo Trepiuno, dedicated to collectors and which will be made in limited numbers, certified and sold directly by the department as part of the Reloaded By Creators project.
The 500 Tributo Trepiuno is based on the current Fiat 500 Hybrid, recreating the magical atmosphere of the 2004 Trepiuno concept, with targeted changes to the interior and exterior equipment, colours and materials. On the outside, the 500 Tributo Trepiuno is characterised by the whiteness of its white livery, inspired by the colour scheme of the 2004 concept, on which stand out the rear lights with red inserts and the logos with the word ‘FIAT’ on a blue background. And the memory can only go back to the 1999 logo, which was created to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the brand.
Completing the silhouette are the Sport wheels with five split-spoke rims and dedicated cup. In a striking colour reference, the interior of the new Heritage Limited Edition echoes the sophisticated two-tone combination of the original concept. This is demonstrated by the front seats upholstered in two-tone white/red brown full-grain leather with specific upholstery. The same theme can be seen in the rear seats, where the full-grain leather upholstery is white in the seat and red-brown for the backrest. The embroidered ‘Trepiuno XX’ logo, emphasising the 20th anniversary, stands out on all four seats.
