This undated image provided by Fiat shows the 2013 Fiat 500e mini-car, which will be appearing at the Los Angeles Auto Show this week. The “500e” is the brand’s first all-electric model in the U.S. while the “500L” comes with four doors and significantly more room than a regular model. The first 500 hit U.S. showrooms two years ago, promising a stylish and fuel-efficient remake of the 1950s original. But the car needs to boost its allure in the U.S., where sales remain pint-sized compared with the rest of the world. (AP Photo/Fiat) -
