Is the Fiat 500 powerful enough for highway driving?

The Fiat 500 is powered by a single electric motor producing 118 hp (87 kW). It accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 9.0 seconds, while the more important city sprint from 0-50 km/h takes just 3.1 seconds thanks to instant torque. Top speed is 150 km/h, and it features a single-pedal driving mode for urban efficiency. For buyers considering the Fiat 500, that matters because it affects how easy the car is to live with, whether for commuting, family use, long-distance driving or ownership costs. The useful way to read this is not as an isolated specification, but as a clue to how the car will feel in real daily use.
