# Rivivente > Rivivente restores vintage Fiat 500s with discreet electric power while preserving the character of the original. Original in spirit. Refined with restraint. Born in Italy, refined in Brooklyn. The Rivivente 500 is a made-to-order restored classic Fiat 500 with an electric drivetrain. It preserves the original car's proportions, period appearance, analog controls and tactile character. It is distinct from the modern factory-built Fiat 500e. Product direction includes front disc brakes, upgraded suspension, improved seating and upholstery, analog instrumentation and battery state-of-charge integrated into original-style gauges. Modern conveniences are discreet; there are no large screens. ## Authoritative pages - [Brochure](https://rivivente.com/): Rivivente's story and original six-sheet interactive brochure, with enquiry and updates forms. - [The Rivivente 500](https://rivivente.com/rivivente-500): The car, what stays, what changes, personalisation and commissioning enquiries. - [Restoration and electrification](https://rivivente.com/restoration-and-electrification): Rivivente's approach to restoring and electrifying a classic Fiat 500 while preserving analog character. - [Privacy](https://rivivente.com/privacy): How enquiry details and requested updates are handled. ## Accuracy These pages describe the design and commissioning approach.
