Fiat 500e tyres
The Fiat 500e leaves the factory on 195/55 R16 and 205/45 R17 depending on wheel size, and the 195/55 R16 91V XL below is the one most owners are replacing. XL is not optional here; it is what the car was type approved on. The Peugeot e-208 takes the same size.

Your own placard is the authority. You will find it on the on the driver's door jamb, on the B-pillar. Where it disagrees with this page, it wins. Match or exceed the size, load index, speed rating and construction class it gives, and use its pressure figure rather than anything printed on the tyre.
What changes on this car
Unusually for a city car, both listed sizes are extra-load. The 16 inch 195/55 carries 91, or 615 kg, four points above the standard-load version of that size.
American cars come only on 17 inch wheels with the 205/45 R17 88V XL. The hatch, the cabrio and the 3+1 with its small rear-hinged door all use the same pair. A 15 inch fitment exists in Europe but Michelin lists it at two different load indexes, so it is not shown.
No tyres listed against this fitment yet. Product specifications are published from each manufacturer's own data and that work is not finished for 195/55 R16. Match or exceed every figure in the table above and you cannot go far wrong.

Every figure here comes from one tyre maker's own fitment data, checked across different years or trims. That is a second look rather than a second opinion, so check the label on your door jamb before you buy.

Common questions
- What size tyres does the Fiat 500e take?
- It runs 195/55 R16 and 205/45 R17. The exact fitment for your car is on On the driver's door jamb, on the B-pillar.
- Can I fit a cheaper tyre to a Fiat 500e?
- Only at 195/55 R16 91V XL or better. That is the figure to hold: a tyre below the load index, the speed rating or the construction class is not a cheaper one, it is the wrong one.
