    Fiat 500X seen in leaked images

    Pictures of the production-ready version of the Fiat 500X crossover have been leaked on the internet. The 500X will make its public debut at the Paris motor show next month, and has previously been teased by Fiat.

    Destined to complete the current 500 family line-up, the 500X will sit alongside the 500L MPV.
    This picture shows that the 500X gets the same retro-inspired styling as the rest of the 500 family, but also includes a more prominent front-end grille design, with some chrome used around the front bumper. Tinted windows, roof rails and a boot-mounted lip spoiler can also be seen.

    The sister car to Jeep's Renegade, the 500X will be built at Fiat's Melfi factory in Italy. The car sits on a modified version of the SCCS platform that underpins the Fiat Punto. Its wheelbase is understood to be around 4200mm.

    Engine options have yet to be confirmed but are likely to comprise Fiat MultiJet diesel and TwinAir petrol engines. Both the Fiat and the Jeep will play a vital part in Fiat Chrysler Automobile's plans to deliver on its "volume aspirations".

    The Fiat 500X is expected to be launched in international markets in early 2015.
