Fiat’s Tiny New EV Is Built With A ‘Little Shower’ For Refreshing Summer Drives

Are you looking for a stylish ride for your upcoming summer escapades? Look no further, as Fiat presents its new Topolino electric vehicle, designed to take you from the city streets to the sandy shores.

The Topolino is a quadricycle specifically crafted for short journeys in bustling European cities. Its compact size allows easy navigation through narrow alleyways and bustling piazzas of Milan or along the scenic coastal roads near Portofino.

This small vehicle is only 8.3 feet long but has a 5.5 kWh battery that can go up to 47 miles on a single charge. There are two versions available: the Topolino and the Topolino Dolcevita. The latter differentiates itself by replacing traditional doors with ropes, allowing you to enjoy the refreshing sea breeze as you cruise.

However, the most intriguing feature of this vehicle is the option to add a “little shower.” Yes, you read that right—a shower. Now, don’t expect opulent motorhome-style fixtures; it’s simply a showerhead that can be connected to the quadricycle. Further details on its functionality remain undisclosed.

Other accessories are also available, including a Bluetooth speaker, a thermal water bottle, seat covers that double as beach towels, and a USB fan to keep you cool on those hot summer days.

In a departure from its previous offerings, Fiat has bid farewell to gray-colored cars and introduced the Topolino and Dolcevita versions exclusively in a refreshing seafoam green hue known as Verde Vita.

Priced at €9,890 (approximately US$10,735), the Topolino is available only in Italy and Europe. Unfortunately, it seems unlikely that the Topolino will make its way to the United States anytime soon.
