The [Larry H Miller Chrysler, Dodge, Ram, and Fiat]() dealership in Denver, Colorado is currently running a promotion to lease the electric hatchback for $0 down and $0 per month. That isn't a typo—*zero dollars down and zero per month*. Of course, there are a couple of catches. You have to be a Colorado resident, have a credit score of 700 or above, and you are still required to pay tax and the disposition fee at signing. So, upfront you're actually handing over $1,692, which equates to around $62 per month across the length of the lease. That's it, though. After that, it's $0 per month for 27 months and 10,000 miles per year. However, one Coloradoan told *[The Autopian]()* that he secured one of these zero-dollar Fiats and only paid $1,111 at signing. ![]() **Stellantis** The dealership was reportedly swamped with customers trying to snag the absurdly cheap lease deal, so it's unclear how long inventory will be available. At the time of writing this, there are 52 500es available on Larry H Miller's website, all of which seem to be the same base-spec Inspi(RED) model. At $34,794 to start, the 500e was never a good deal for customers, [perhaps because it was a solid one for Fiat](). As much as we liked the little ["espresso shot"]() of a car, its 149 miles of range and 117 horsepower are clearly bad value when similarly priced competitors, like the [Hyundai Ioniq 5]() and [Chevrolet Equinox EV](), offer better figures. It doesn't help that the 500e is a very particular flavor of commuter, with its cutesy styling and cramped interior, that certainly isn't for everyone. But owning one for two years, for just under $2,000 total, seems like too good a value to pass up, even if you don't love the car. If I lived in Colorado, I'd be sprinting to Larry H Miller right now. *Got tips?

His love of cars began when he was just a kid playing Gran Turismo 3, grinding out enough race wins with a Mazda Miata to save up for an in-game RUF 911. That passion for small, lightweight sports cars drove his desire to learn more about the industry, get his hands on as many cars as he could, and bring those experiences to life on the page. He cut his teeth writing about BMWs, Volkswagens, and Audis, mostly, and has owned far too many of each. He’s on his fourth 3 Series sedan, but all of his old, cheap German cars have forced him to learn more about car maintenance than his mechanical capability can handle. Too many late nights have been spent scrambling to get a car running by morning so he could get to work. For some reason, he never seems to learn that old Bimmers probably aren’t the best daily drivers. But he loves more than just old German cars. He’ll gladly drive and discuss anything with four (or even three) wheels. Cars aren’t his only passions, though. Nico is also a big nerd and loves movies, video games, comic books, and cares far too much about the New York Giants. So don’t be surprised if you see football references or dumb, obscure movie quotes in any of his car reviews. ### Author social links [Instagram]() [LinkedIn]()
