A roomy Fiat 500L car rental with Italian flair
Drive a 500L
A Fiat 500L car rental gives you a tall, airy cabin, a turbocharged 1.4L engine, and room for five. It's the Fiat rental to pick when the luggage matters as much as the looks.
On Turo, you book your 500L from a local vehicle owner and arrange pickup and drop-off that fit your plans. You'll find 500L models from several model years, and 2020 marked the final US model year.

Cargo space that outsizes its footprint
The 500L holds 22.4 cubic feet of cargo behind the rear seats and 68.0 cubic feet with them folded. That's room for a week of suitcases, a stroller, or a flat-pack bookshelf — pick your haul. The tall, wagon-like body keeps that space usable, so boxy items slide in without a fight.
Turbocharged performance from a 1.4L engine
A turbocharged 1.4L four-cylinder gives the 500L 160 hp and 184 lb-ft of torque. A six-speed automatic sends that power to the front wheels, so you get smooth, simple driving with a little extra punch. The MultiAir engine shares its roots with a sporty small hatchback from the same brand — a dash of hot-hatch DNA in a family-friendly shape.
That torque figure matters when you're carrying five people and their bags. It gives you a confident shove when you merge onto the interstate or pull away from a light. Around town, the automatic handles stop-and-go traffic for you, so you can focus on the route instead of the gears.
Airy, upright cabin with room for five
The 500L's upright cabin gives front-seat riders 40.7 inches of headroom, so tall passengers sit without slouching. A tall roofline and big windows let in plenty of light and give you a clear view of the road around you.
Five seats mean the whole crew rides together — no second car, no splitting up at the airport. The upright seating also makes climbing in and out easier for kids, grandparents, and anyone tired of folding into a low-slung car. Add the cargo room behind the rear seats, and you've got a cabin built for real trips with real people.
Stand out with a 500L
The 500L fits small groups, family visits, and city-to-suburb trips with luggage in tow. Its Italian design stands apart from look-alike crossovers, and Turo's car rental marketplace lets you book the exact model you want.
Top 500L features
Italian design lineage
Three standouts define the 500L: its Italian design lineage, its classic status, and its easy-going efficiency.
The 500L belongs to the 500 family, and it shows. It scales that retro-inspired styling up to four doors and room for five. You get the look without squeezing into a tiny city car.
That mix is what makes the 500L memorable. You get the charm of a compact Italian hatchback with the practicality of a small wagon. Pull up to a family reunion, a downtown hotel, or a weekend getaway, and it won't blend in with the rows of gray crossovers. It's a car people notice, and it still swallows your luggage without complaint.
Classic status as a final-year model
The 500L's US run ended after the 2020 model year, so you can't buy one new from a US dealer. Every 500L came off an assembly line in Serbia, which gives it a distinctly European backstory.
That makes renting one of the easiest ways to spend time behind the wheel of a car that's no longer on showroom floors. Take it for a weekend, load it up for a family trip, or simply see what the fuss is about. You'll get a quirky, practical hatchback that took its own path — and a story for anyone who asks what you're driving.
Easy-going efficiency at the pump
The 500L returns 22 mpg city, 30 mpg highway, and 25 mpg combined. A 13.2-gallon tank stretches the time between gas station stops. You'll spend more of your road trip driving and less of it waiting at the pump.
Premium fuel gets the recommendation, but the engine runs on 87 octane. That gives you some flexibility on a long drive, especially in areas where premium is harder to find or pricier than usual. Combine that with the 500L's cargo space, and you've got a practical way to cover real distance with a full car.

Santiago was great. Rented for extended time and the car was reliable and at a good rate. 10/10 would rent again
Santiago was great at communication, easy to work with, and is an all around great host. Hard to imagine better. The car was spotlessly clean, well care for, new tires, and a bit long in the tooth but in any case reliable.
Santiago is a great host! Everything ran smoothly. The Fiat is a nice drive and is relatively good on gas, too. Thank you!
Santiago is a great host. Everything went as promised. Very specific instructions were given on how to pick up and drop off. The car was exactly as promised and in great working order, and ran great the entire trip.
Great host, the car was in great condition well maintained. Drives great the mileage was good.Over all enjoy will definitely book again. Pick and drop off was easy.
Everything was excellent: the condition of the vehicle, communication with host, and overall experience. I recommend.
Top tips and things to know before renting a 500L
Get to know your 500L
A little prep goes a long way with a 500L. Know the trims, a few driving quirks, and how pricing works, and you'll pick the right one for your trip.
The 500L came in three main trims: Pop, Trekking, and Lounge. Trims vary by listing, so check the details if a specific trim matters to you.
If you'd rather go smaller, the compact Fiat 500 delivers the same family look in a tighter package. For a different body style, check out the crossover-style Fiat 500X.
500L driving tips
A few simple habits help you get the most from a 500L:
Fill up with premium when you can, though the engine runs on 87 octane.
Remember it's front-wheel drive, and leave extra stopping room on wet roads.
Keep both hands on the wheel in strong crosswinds, since the tall body can catch gusts.
Fold the rear seats when you need room for bulky gear.
Let the six-speed automatic handle stop-and-go traffic.
How much does it cost to rent a 500L?
The cost of a 500L rental depends on the listing. Local vehicle owners set their own prices, which vary by location, trip dates, and model year.
Some listings include discounts for longer trips, so a weekly or monthly booking can lower your daily rate. For stays of a month or more, browse long-term car rental options on Turo.

* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.

For questions about how damage to a host’s vehicle is handled, visit the Turo Support site. When a trip is booked in the state of Washington, physical damage to the host’s vehicle is covered by insurance purchased by Turo, but the Turo insurance does not change the contractual responsibilities of hosts or guests with respect to physical damage to a host’s vehicle.
