A Jolly good day with the Fiat 500 For exactly 60 years, the Fiat 500 has been a striking and, above all, incredibly fun appearance on the road. For a car originally built for the masses, the 500 exudes a quirky personality. And to look back at this characteristic car, we were allowed an afternoon on the road with the Fiat 500 Jolly. Although the old Fiat 500 can be called a real 'retro car', the design is anything but outdated in the way many things get old. Sure, the design almost constitutes an extreme of the latest model, just judging by its size, but the fact that the familiar design is still being carried on after 60 years says more than enough, of course. And certainly this Jolly version of the 500 makes the car seem even more endearing and cheerful than its 'bigger' normal brother. Whereas many things in terms of appearance suffer from time, the Fiat 500 has actually become more charming with age. Dante Giacosa and his team from Turin have managed to design a car that will bring smiles to several generations.
