      New 1.3 liter turbo produces 177 hp and best-in-class torque of 210 lb-ft.

    Fiat released details this morning of the 2019 Fiat 500x due to be shown at the 2018 Los Angeles Auto Show this week.  The primary upgrade is an all-new 1.3 liter turbo-charged 4-cylinder which produces 178 horsepower and a class-leading 210 lb-ft of torque.   This new standard engine comes with engine stop-start (ESS) and Fiat's MultiAir III valve action. All-Wheel drive now comes standard.

    Additional upgrades on the 2019 Fiat 500X include:

    • New front and rear fascia
    • LED Daytime running lights
    • Three new wheel options and three new exterior paint colors (Italia Blue, Vibrante Green, and Milano Ivory)
    • Adaptive cruise control and front park assist available
    • Uconnect 4 with 7-inch touchscreen that includes Apple CarPlay and Android Auto

    210 lb-ft from a 1.3 liter ?!?

    Give it less than a 100,000 mile life before having to be replaced. 

    I doubt this will give any more life to the Fiat crackerjack box car. This just is not what the bulk of America wants in an auto.

    • Maga Florida would become the new crappy Capital of Crappy USA Idiots.  
    • East Coast. West Coast. Northern Border.  Yeah. All of it!!! Canada!!!   East Coast: New York State + Vermont + Maine + New Hampshire + Massachusetts = Canada.   These were all French colonies at first anyway, minus Massachusetts and the lower part of New York.    West Coast: Washington State + Oregon + California = Canada   Because why not???!!!  These states do not want to be part of the shythole country that has become the usa so...they might as well join Canada.  Northern Border States:  Minnesota = Canada    Michigan shall be Canadian BECAUSE Detroit  was founded by a French guy by the name of Cadillac.  Reparations are owed...    Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Arkansas were also founded by the French but they have become such shytehole areas, mainly the reason that america has become such a shytehole country.  america could keep that shyte all to themselves.  Canada will happily have California, Washington State, Oregon and Minnesota instead.  4 states versus 4 states.  Anyway, those Canadian states I proposed to become Canadian, the people living in these states are normal people and they think alike as Canadians do.  Makes perfect sense that these states become Canadian. Oh...we could give you Alberta and Saskatchewan in exchange for New Jersey, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Illinois,  Delaware and Maryland.  New York and New Jersey go hand in hand which also includes Rhode Island.  Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont and Massachusetts go hand in hand with Connecticut.  Delaware and Maryland go hand in hand and since District of Columbia will be under Canadian rule when Canada burns down the White House again...   The new usa could have a new capital city somewheres in the shytehole areas of the usa. 
    • Canada probably could take the whole west coast.
