Fiat is following up their big Super Bowl Fiat 500X commercial by giving fans the chance to configure their own 2016 500X online.

Five different trim levels are available for the new 500X. The Trekking and Trekking Plus vehicles offer an aggressive and athletic appearance with rear fascia designs and silver accents. The Street series vehicles, which include the Easy, Pop and Lounge options, feature a more urban appearance than previous Fiats

"The Fiat 500X is the next step of FIAT expansion in the North American market," said Jason Stoicevich, Head of FIAT Brand North America, FCA US LLC, in a company statement. "Personalization is a big part of who we are as a brand, so we are giving our customers a chance to jump-start the process and customize a Fiat 500X that fits their own needs and personality. Also, FIAT fans can now visit a studio to reserve a vehicle and be one of the first to own the Italian-made Fiat 500X."
