The 2016 Fiat 500 with a manual transmission gets 31 mpg in the city and 40 on the highway. Both vehicles are set standard with front-wheel drive. The 2016 Yaris comes set with a slightly larger engine therefore giving it just a little bit more power than the Fiat 500. It’s equipped with a 1.5-liter 4-cylinder, which pumps out 106 horsepower.
