Fiat is kicking off the new convertible season with a hot new special edition for the 2019 124 Spider. It is called the Spider Urbana Edition and will be displayed at the New York Auto Show next week.

Based on the Classica trim level, the new limited edition cabrio comes as standard with 17-inch Black Diamond wheels wrapped in, as Fiat says, performance tires. The exterior is enhanced with dual bright exhaust tips, exterior accents in Piano Back, and a Gloss Black finish on the front pillar bar bezel, seat-back pillar, and mirror caps.

Step inside the cabin and you’ll find more minor upgrades such as matte gray accents and Urbana leather seats, as well as a wrapped instrument cluster hood and instrument panel. Fiat says the accents on the Spider Urbana Edition create a sporty appearance, both inside and out.

“With the most powerful four-cylinder turbo engine in its class, our Italian-designed Fiat 124 Spider offers an authentic top-down roadster experience with fun-to-drive dynamics,” Steve Beahm, Head of Passenger Car Brands at FCA - North America, comments. “The new Urbana Edition offers a head-turning, custom appearance for the Fiat 124 Spider.”

Customers interested in the model can place an order at Fiat showrooms across the country.

For the 2019 model year, aside from the Urbana Edition model, the 124 Spider is also getting three new options. There’s now a louder exhaust system, a new Veleno Appearance package, and new custom center stripes. As standard, the retro-chic roadster now comes with a reversing camera. Power continues to be provided from a 1.4-liter turbocharged inline-four engine with 164 horsepower (119 kilowatts).

About the Fiat 124 Spider
The Fiat 124 Spider revives the storied nameplate, bringing its classic Italian styling and performance to a new generation. Paying homage to the original 124 Spider more than 50 years after its introduction, the Fiat 124 Spider delivers the ultimate Italian roadster experience with driving excitement, technology and safety combined with iconic Italian design.

The Fiat 124 Spider, designed at the Centro Stile center in Turin, Italy, borrows cues from the original Spider, widely considered one of Fiat’s most beautiful cars of all time, and reinterprets them for today. The 124 Spider has a timeless low-slung presence, with a classically beautiful body side, well-balanced proportions and a sporty cabin-to-hood ratio.

For 2019, three new options have been added to the head-turning 124 Spider lineup. They include a new Record Monza Exhaust, a new Veleno Appearance Group and new custom center stripes.

The roadster comes standard with the proven 1.4-liter MultiAir Turbo four-cylinder engine, the engine’s first application in a rear-wheel-drive vehicle. The engine delivers 164 horsepower and 184 lb.-ft. of torque on Abarth and is available with a six-speed manual transmission or a six-speed automatic transmission.

The 124 Spider’s suspension uses a double-wishbone layout in front and a multi-link in the rear, specifically tuned for greater stability while braking and turning. Steering is light and responsive with the use of an electric power-assist (dual pinion) system. NVH enhancements, including an acoustic front windshield and insulation treatments, help deliver a refined, quiet ride.

The vehicle is available with an array of safety and security features, including full LED-adaptive front headlamps, Blind-spot Monitoring, Rear Cross Path detection and a ParkView rear backup camera.

Technology and convenience features include Keyless Enter ‘n Go, Bluetooth connectivity, heated seats, available Bose premium nine-speaker audio system and FIAT Connect 7.0 with a 7-inch touchscreen display.
