Found another reason NOT to get the Fiat 500e: it has an Auto Park feature which automatically locks the wheels whenever the driver exits the car. What this means is that it is impossible to put the car into Neutral and push it if you're by yourself! This was discovered by a brand-new owner whose 500e died on him inside a parking garage (after 60 miles!) and he couldn't push it out and the tow truck couldn't get into the garage. This is a 'safety' feature? How many of us would realize this when taking a test drive in the car? That car ended up needing to have the starter switch AND battery pack replaced!
