Fiat has announced the introduction of the Multijet II engine in the 500. This new version of the famous 1.3L oil burner comes with Start & Stop technology as well as a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). The Multijet II powerplant is equipped with variable geometry turbocharger which gives it 95hp of power and 200Nm of torque. All this results in a higher top speed by 16kmph at 181kmph and a 0 – 100 kmph time of 10.7 seconds, down 1.8 seconds from before. The increased performance doesn’t come at a cost of economy as the 2010 Fiat 500 is greener and more fuel efficient.
