Are you looking for a great new car that will be absolutely fantastic to ride? Check out the new 2018 FIAT 124 Spider. Here are some of the features that make it perfect for a road trip.

Sporty Specs

The 2018 FIAT 124 Spider has much-loved sport features, like a class-exclusive, four-cylinder turbo engine. This 1.4-liter MultiAir Turbo Engine has a 160 horsepower, 184 pound-feet of torque, and a six-speed manual transmission with a short-throw shifter. Check out the 16-inch aluminum wheels in a spectacular silver color and the three-season performance tires. 

Stunning Exterior

The Spider is souped up with stylish Italian exterior accents and a tasteful finish. Enjoy a long drive with the top up or down. When it’s down, the breeze heads toward the back of the car, and when it’s up, the aluminum header makes for an attractive roof and amazing sound insulation. The 124 Spider Red Top Edition has a Bordeaux soft top, so you’ll look and feel great whether you ride with it up or down. At the car’s corners, you’ll notice halogen projector headlamps, which increase visibility. These LED lights have high endurance and withstand long-term wear.

Excellent Interior

Get cozy and comfy in the luxury heated leather and microfiber sport seats in the new 2018 FIAT 124 Spider, lined with red accent stitching and designed for comfort. In the Lusso model car, the seats are leather-trimmed in the color of saddle or black, and the Classica model has beautiful black cloth seating. There is five cubic space of cargo room, so you can bring your luggage on your journey.

Classy Cockpit  

If you’re sitting up front, you’ll notice the specialty cockpit, complete with a leather-covered steering wheel with a design geared for convenient grip. Audio and speed controls are well integrated and recessed to make it simple to use. You’ll also love the aluminum accent sport pedals that are covered in bright aluminum and create an unforgettable racing appearance. 

Super Technology

Technological advances in the Spider include the FIAT Connect 7.0, which comes standard on the Lusso, Red Top Edition, and Abarth. Enjoy a 7-inch color touch screen, a multimedia command knob, voice command, Bluetooth streaming, SiriusXM Satellite Radio with one year of included service, and apps like Pandora, Aha by Harman, and Stitcher. Also, a unique GPS navigation system is part of the Navigation and Sound Group on the Lusso and Abarth models. Check out 2D or 3D maps of the city and roads and direct your search via voice command, touch screen, or multimedia command knobs.

Amazing Audio

If you love to hear your tunes while driving your Spider, you’ll enjoy the Bose Audio System that includes nine speakers, including a subwoofer, along with phenomenal clarity. There are two speakers in each headrest to give you excellent audio capacity even when riding with the top down.

There is so much to love about the new 2018 FIAT 124 Spider, including its beautiful exterior, the best technology, and the chance to look and feel fantastic. Check it out at your local FIAT dealership.
