How to Make Your Fiat Topolino Street Legal in America

Purchasing and Free Delivery

Buyers can choose between the standard model or the door-less Dolcevita version. Local Fiat dealers will deliver the vehicle for free within a 50-mile radius.

Customers who want private property use need no modifications. They can simply buy the car and enjoy immediate delivery right to their doorsteps.

Low-Speed Vehicle Requirements

Driving on public streets requires the government Low-Speed Vehicle classification. This designation demands specific safety equipment and a top speed between 20 and 25 miles per hour.

The standard Topolino lacks a backup camera, pedestrian alert system, and proper VIN. Therefore, buyers must request the Low-Speed Vehicle conversion kit for street use.

Free Conversion Kit Details

Fiat offers the entire conversion kit and installation completely free of charge. Dealers receive full labor reimbursements to absorb all extra expenses for consumers.

Fiat USA CEO Andrew Waterhouse stated, 'We are paying for the kit, so we are absorbing that cost; so there's no additional cost to the consumer.' He added, "So what we want to do is give the customer one hundred percent flexibility in terms of what they want."

The kit includes a rearview camera, an exterior pedestrian alert speaker, regulatory stickers, and a proper VIN. Technicians then flash the software to raise the top speed limit from 19 mph to 25 mph.
