Fiat is offereing a new smaller engine for its Fiat 500. Currently the 500 is powered by a 1.2L SOHC gasoline engine that produces between 68 to 74 horsepower. The new unit is a o.9L engine. In its naturally aspirated form, the 0.9L pumps out 65 horsepower, though the turbocharged engine produces anywhere from 80 to 105 horsepower. The engine is lighter and has a reduction in carbon dioxide output, making it more fuel efficient.
