12. 2016 Fiat 500X
Arguably as evocative of luxury as a Lexus, Italy’s Fiat 500X is a mini crossover SUV that is rapidly becoming a consumer favorite. The model was first demonstrated to the public back in October of 2014. The 500X goes the distance not only in its strength and safety, but in its very affordable starting MSRP of $20,000. The demand for European manufactured and styled vehicles has risen sharply in recent years. Fiat Chrysler Automobiles manufactures not only their two eponymous makes, but also Abarth, Alfa Romeo, Lancia, Dodge, Jeep and Ram. Though largely thought of as an Italian brand, Fiats have been manufactured in the United States since 1908, when the Fiat Automobile Co. opened their first American plant in Poughkeepsie, New York.
