I’m not sure what that website is about, but on mine, the pin is only set and managed through the app. There's no pin setting in the car itself. You can also change it directly in the app

Congrats on the 500e! Yep, the charging speed slows down as it gets closer to full, kind of like how we all slow down when we’re almost at the finish line. So, nothing to worry about just the battery being polite;)

Congrats on the 500e! That black object might be the charging cable adapter unless it’s some mysterious Fiat treasure. As for the floor mats, they usually come with the trim, so you might want to ask the dealer for those. And the pebble key? Sounds like a dealer oops, so definitely follow up!

A sub in a 500e? Bold move! You’ll need a compact sub and some creativity with placement, maybe under the seats or in the trunk. DIY forums will be your best friend for tips. Good luck with the bass🎶

Oh boy, that sounds like quite the electric adventure!😅 For the "Electric Tire Shredder" (love the nickname), I’d say start with the OBDLink SX and Alfa, you can usually reset without needing to disconnect the cables, but a little patience and careful diagnostics might be your best friends here...

I've read that in the US, most EV manufacturers offer a battery warranty that lasts between 8 to 10 years, or around 100,000 to 150,000 miles. The coverage typicaly includes a significant drop in battery capacity usually around 30% or more. However exact terms can vary by manufacturer

I haven’t come across any info on this, but is it true that our cars aren’t compatible with roof racks? I’m thinking a boot bike rack could work, though it might be tricky with the spoiler. Guess it’s time to start looking at Bromptons instead, haha!

Hi everyone, After recent updates on our 500e, we can’t charge it at home anymore. Charging starts but stops after 10 seconds with the "Please check charging system" message. The dealer blames our wallbox, but it worked fine before the updates, still charges at the dealer’s, and a Mercedes...

It happened suddenly. I was hoping it wasn’t something like the battery but it sounds like that could be the issue. Good thing I do have it under warranty, so I’ll reach out to the dealership about a replacement. Appreciate very much the advice

The 500e Icon doesn’t include a wireless phone charger. Does anyone know where I can buy one, or suggest a good USB cable for charging? Appreciate any advice

The go pedal is definitely more responsive, but even on the lowest setting, it's still too sensitive for regen braking. All EVs gradually increase power, some faster than others. I wouldn't want more power off the line it could damage things. What I really want is to unlock the full power of the...

That sounds like some solid expert advice. This info is incredibly helpful, and much appreciated! It clears up a lot of confusion

My 2021 Fiat 500e small rectangle wearable key isn’t being detected. Any suggestions on how to resolve this?

I recently test drove a 2018 model with a similar issue. The noise starts as soon as the car begins moving and gradually increases in pitch, almost like a whistle. It seems connected to the motor's speed and rotation, higher speeds make the pitch rise and slower speeds cause it to drop. It was...

Considering how much power a 350kW charger can provide, £30 seems pretty reasonable. You’re lucky to have one nearby my closest reliable 50kW charger is almost 50 miles away and it’s 50p per kWh

We just got our La Prima and love it! It’s our first electric car, and we’re a bit confused with the start-stop feature and handbrake. In D mode (normal or range), do I need to manually release the handbrake every time I stop? And when I press the accelerator, should it disengage automatically...

That's actually right! For pre-conditioning to work from the app, you need to leave the heat on when you exit the car. The system uses the car's settings at shutdwn to determine how to pre-heat it. If you turn off the heat before exiting, the car might not know to turn it back on. Pretty...

For trips under 3 weeks it doesn’t matter if it’s plugged in or not. Once the battery reaches 100% it enters sleep mode and won’t charge again for up to 3 weeks. For trips longer than 3 weeks it still doesn’t matter unless the 12V battery gets too low to power the car on for charging. In that...

Hey! The Fiat 500e is perfect if you don’t need to drive long distances. It’s super efficient, gets great mileage, and its small size makes it fun to drive, especially in the city. It handles well and has a nice, zippy feel. Definitely worth requesting a test drive!
