Plot hole: Benji puts his car into automatic mode, which operates partly through satnav. Surely, this would be monitored by The Entity, who has predicted every other action up to that point. The same car is used at the end of the film, but if The Entity hasn't noticed it by then, it's not as powerful as they think it is.

Continuity mistake: Ethan and Grace are in a car chase, trying to get away from Paris. The Fiat Ethan and Grace are driving makes a left turn, and you see a dark blue car parked at the corner. Paris is driving the armored vehicle and makes the same turn, but the dark blue car has disappeared. (01:07:36)
Eugene Kittridge: Your days of fighting for the so-called greater good are over. This is our chance to control the truth. The concepts of right and wrong for everyone for centuries to come. You're fighting to save an ideal that doesn't exist. Never did. You need to pick a side.
Trivia: The actor playing new IMF agent "India Zulu 254" is Alex James-Phelps - possibly a deliberate casting choice given a main character in the series and original film is called Jim Phelps.

Answer: While it looks like a normal Fiat 500, this is a specialised IMF car, as evidenced by the controls inside and its ludicrously high speed. It being electric is in line with that.
