Safety
Warranty
The 500e comes with a full 4-year/50,000-mile basic warranty, which covers the entire car and includes free 24-hour roadside assistance. The Charger’s 3-year/36,000-mile basic warranty expires 1 year or 14,000 miles sooner.
Tires and Wheels
The 500e’s tires provide better handling because they have a lower 45 series profile (height to width ratio) that provides a stiffer sidewall than the Charger’s standard 55 series tires.
Suspension and Handling
For better maneuverability, the 500e’s turning circle is 8.5 feet tighter than the Charger Coupe’s (31.5 feet vs. 40 feet).
Chassis
The Fiat 500e may be more efficient, handle and accelerate better because it weighs about 2900 pounds less than the Dodge Charger.
The 500e is 5 feet, 3.5 inches shorter than the Charger Daytona Scat Pack Coupe, making the 500e easier to handle, maneuver and park in tight spaces.
The 500e is 1 foot, 1.8 inches narrower than the Charger, making the 500e easier to handle and maneuver in traffic.
Ergonomics
To improve rear visibility by keeping the rear window clear, the 500e has a standard rear wiper. The Charger doesn’t offer a rear wiper.
To quickly and conveniently keep personal devices charged without cables tangling and wearing out, the Fiat 500e has a standard wireless phone charging system (Qi) in the center console. Wireless charging costs extra on the Charger.
