In the section of small city cars, there is the essential Fiat 500. Did you know that it actually has not one, but two trunks? The second is secret storage.
In Italy, it is almost impossible to stroll through the streets without coming across a Fiat 500 model, old or newer. It must be said that this city car is emblematic in the Italian landscape. It is even beyond that, on the foreign automobile market. This model from the manufacturer Fiat also celebrated its 65th anniversary in 2022, without showing the slightest wrinkle. And for good reason, the Fiat 500 still appeals to many motorists today thanks to its advantages: small city car, pleasant to drive, good handling and modern design for the most recent models. For example, in Europe, nearly 194,000 copies of the Fiat 500 were sold in 2018. The record year for this model.
As with the majority of cars, the Fiat 500 has a trunk of 185 L on average. On the other hand, what very few people know is that this city car has a second trunk, which is hidden. It is located in the passenger compartment of the vehicle and most of the time, passengers and even owners are not aware that it exists. It was on the social network Tiktok, and more precisely on the @camalacam_ account, that the discovery was shared. In a simple video, viewed more than 4 million times, the creator of the account showed Internet users where the secret storage is hidden in recent Fiat 500 models.
You probably wouldn’t have guessed it, but it’s located under the front passenger seat. To open it, all you have to do is raise the seat base and you will discover a small storage space underneath. It is certainly smaller than the rear trunk, but it has enough space to hold a mini handbag, a pair of sunglasses, a stash of candy or even a precious object or an important document that you would like to hide from view. In any case, it at least has the merit of existing!
