Fiat 500C Goes Topless

Automobile Magazine reports that, on the heels of the highly successful release of the Fiat 500 in Europe, at the 2009 Geneva Auto Show Fiat has introduced a drop-top variant that will launch in Europe this spring. The car comes with a choice of a 75-hp, 1.3-liter diesel engine, or either a 69-hp 1.2-liter or 100 hp 1.4-liter gasoline I-4 engines. Fiat is trying to position the little bugger as a MINI killer. The 500 may come to the US if the Fiat/Chrysler relationship pans out.
