Fiat is celebrating the return of the Abarth division by creating a limited edition Abarth 500 Competizione for the Dutch market.

The exclusive model boasts a unique exterior with a black roof, 17-inch black alloy wheels, and black Abarth graphics on the sides. Inside, the car features GPS navigation, climate control, a premium audio system, and leather sport seats with embossed Competizione logos.

Like the standard Fiat 500 Abarth, the Competizione is powered by a turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder engine with 135 hp and 206 Nm (152 lb-ft) of torque.


Only ten Abarth 500 Competiziones will be produced and prices start at 24,995.

Just under 17lb/hp. The MS3 is just under 12lb/hp. It ain't that quick then. Peppy, but not quick.

 

[genericuser]

Doesn't matter.

Imagine how much fun it is revving that little 1.4 turbo north of the sun

I really really want to drive one of these.
