With a width of 1900 mm (74.8 inches) including mirrors, the Abarth 500e Cabriolet is relatively wide for a compact car, mainly due to its design and side mirrors. While this width offers stability and a sporty feel, it may require careful attention when parking in tight city spaces or narrow garages, but it is still manageable in most urban parking environments.
The vehicle's height of 1518 mm (59.8 inches) contributes to a cozy yet comfortable cabin space typical for a cabriolet. Although convertible roofs usually compromise some headroom, the Abarth 500e Cabriolet is designed to optimize interior space for driver and passengers while maintaining a low silhouette for a sporty look.
Yes, the 2023 Abarth 500e Cabriolet fits in a standard single-car garage. Standard garages typically measure around 2400-3000 mm wide (94-118 inches) and about 4800-5500 mm long (189-216 inches). Since the Abarth 500e Cabriolet is 3673 mm (144.5 inches) long and 1900 mm (74.8 inches) wide with mirrors opened, it leaves sufficient room for door opening and maneuvering inside a standard garage.

While exact previous generation dimensions vary, generally the 595 Cabriolet was slightly shorter or similar in length but often narrower.

The 500e Cabriolet is equipped with 17-inch rims paired with 205/45 R17 tires. These size specifications provide a good balance of sporty handling and ride comfort. The relatively low profile tires increase road grip and responsiveness, contributing to agile cornering, while still maintaining acceptable comfort for everyday driving.
At 3673 mm (144.5 inches) in overall length, the Abarth 500e Cabriolet is designed primarily as a compact two-door roadster prioritizing style and nimbleness rather than maximum passenger space. The limited length means rear seating is generally suited for occasional or smaller passengers if available, with front seats optimized for comfort. Its compact size favors urban mobility and sporty driving over spaciousness.
The compact dimensions of the Abarth 500e Cabriolet make it ideal for crowded city streets, narrow parking spaces, and winding roads. Its length of 3673 mm (144.5 inches) and width of 1900 mm (74.8 inches) enable it to easily navigate tight spaces, while still providing a stable ride. The cabriolet top also adds versatility for open-air driving, making day-to-day driving both practical and fun.
The cabriolet body style of the 2023 Abarth 500e adds to the car’s appeal and driving experience, although it typically makes the structure a bit heavier to maintain rigidity, potentially affecting handling. However, designers have balanced the compact size, weight distribution, and chassis tuning to retain responsive handling and dynamic driving. The convertible nature also influences the vehicle height (1518 mm), styling, and interior space distribution, enhancing enjoyment without compromising the car’s trademark agility.
