2008 Novitec Fiat 500 Adds Power
Powerful, agile and exclusive: These three attributes best describe the NOVITEC customization program for the new Fiat 500. Engine tuning with up to 131 hp / 96.4 kW, even sportier handling characteristics with 16- and 17-inch tire/wheel combinations and matching suspension modifications, as well as a more striking front thanks to the NOVITEC front spoiler make the small Italian car even more desirable.

The aerodynamic-enhancement part is mounted to the production apron and lends the Fiat 500 an even more striking face. Integrated air dams provide cooling air to the front brakes. The front spoiler sells for 159 Euros MSRP.

With the POWERRAIL 4 module for the 1.3 JTD turbodiesel model NOVITEC offers powerful engine tuning at low cost. The auxiliary control module is designed as a plug-and-play unit that can be installed in just a few minutes. It costs just 335 Euros and increases power output of the common-rail engine from standard 70 hp / 51.5 kW to 83 hp / 61 kW. It reduces sprint time from rest to 100 km/h to 11.9 seconds. Top speed grows from 160 to 165 km/h.

More driving fun through supercharging will soon be available from NOVITEC for the 16-valve 1.4-liter engine of the Fiat 500 HP model. The mechanical supercharger provides a linear power development that reaches its peak of 131 hp / 96.4 kW at 6,200 rpm. Simultaneously peak torque grows from standard 131 Nm to 172 Nm at 5,300 rpm. Thus powered the two-door car accelerates from 0 – 100 km/h in just 8.8 seconds and reaches a top speed of 198 km/h.
