Fiat unveils new 500e Giorgio Armani Collector's Edition

Step aside Gucci, Fiat has found a new partner.

Feast your eyes, gentlemen (or perhaps there's more ladies in the audience this time round?), for what you're looking at, is the new Fiat 500e Giorgio Armani Collector's Edition.

The special edition Fiat 500e gets burnished bi-tone anodised rims that take after the Giorgio Armani logo, and its interior is said to be festooned with the Designer's signature

Said to combine the talents of two of Italy's great houses of design, elegance, craftsmanship, and innovation, this new electric supermini is the product of months of work between the Designer and Fiat's Centro Stile in Turin.

And it is available in two colours. The first, Green micinalised, apparently mirrors Giorgio Armani's signature style and refined taste, while the second, ceramic Greige, merges grey and beige to emerge as a new sophisticated and nuanced shade, invented by the man himself.

Opt for either car and your supermini will come with added features including special rims - the perfect accompaniment for your Armani belt (or handbag?) that sport a bi-tone anodised finish.

In the cabin, both cars also come with seats complete with chevron stitching and three-dimensional patterns said to evoke traditional tailoring techniques. There's also a dashboard insert made from laser-cut wood, and the maestro's logo is replicated on the car's steering wheel and seats, while his signature appears on the dashboard, interior doors, and rear window.

The Fiat 500e Giorgio Armani Collector's Edition comes complete with 116bhp electric motor and is said to offer a WLTP range of up to 320km. Bother your hubby for one - it is already available for purchase in Europe and Fiat states that it has plans to offer it in other regions around the globe in the near future.
