Fiat 500X Rental

Spent the week in FLA, Xmas gift to wife, and Enterprise gave me a Fiat 500X as a rental. It had 1K on the clock . Put 500 miles on it in the week and here are my impressions:

1) It had the keyless ignition which too some getting used to-almost left the key fob in the cupholder once.
2) Rear vision was not great, small back window and the side mirrors were ok but when I did the head turn check over right/left shoulders pulling out of a parking spot I was not happy with limited vision.
3) Electronic tranny seemed ok. 8 speed. Had decent pick up.
4) Brakes are grabby and since you are up about 3 inches above normal it can surprise you.
5) Rear storage is SMALL...Too SMALL. Two 24" suitcases would not fit flat stacked and could not fit vertical side by side.
6) Audio was good. Andriod phone and Ipod interface was seamless.

I would not buy it but as a rental it was ok.
