Fiat 500 Bicolore

The TwinAir is going two-tone! Fiat has taken the wraps off a new two-tone version of its 500, signalling the arrival of yet more special edition versions of the stylish supermini.

The wraps were pulled off this special Bicolore 500 at the Bologna Motor Show, which features a white and red paint scheme apparently inspired by “the retro world of '50s American cars and the extraordinary pop art movement.”

The car shown is based on the 85bhp 500 TwinAir in Pop spec. There are no mechanical changes, but as well as the new paint scheme, the car gets alloy wheels, coloured electric window switches and an interior chrome kit.

The white and red model will be the first of a number of two-tone versions that Fiat will introduce in the coming months. The new models will be the latest in a long line of special 500s that have been sold in different markets around the world, including the 500 by Diesel and 500 Pink that have been sold in the UK, and the 500 Orange which has apparently been a big hit with Japanese buyers. Fiat is yet to confirm whether the twin-tone 500 will make it to the UK.
