Car review: Fiat Nuovo Croma

-
Image
The Nuova Croma makes its debut, the Station Wagon as Fiat sees it, a car full of innovation and substance, with new styling and a more rational range.

Aside from a few minor quibbles, Mini E lessees are overly joyed with their first EV experience and many don't want to give the vehicle back at the end of the lease. As the saying goes, once you go electric, there's no going back. But is the Mini E really a vehicle that will change our lives and choices of what we drive forever?
