Lots of negativity towards this in the Abarth community.

I’m interested. Currently own a 180 Comp PP which I love.

Can’t wait for the reviews.

Prob v.similar to the Fiat 500, so 120-150 real-world range, 7 point something to 60 and £35k. Lots more bling, better tech, and funky colours as expected.

Probably that car yes.
But why use the colors making it look like the orginal 500E ten years old..? ”Because its an EV”..?
They’ll never win over the petrolheads that way. Make it blood red! Or white w red stripes!

I went to Fiat to potentially buy a 500e. I came out with a 595 Comp.

Just can't see me being in a rush to trade the 595 for an Abarth 500e. I still drop windows in tunnels and boot it, just to hear that engine and the bark as you change gear.

The new bonnet / headlight shape reminds me of the popular '90's / '00's modification of the welded up "Bad Boy" & "eyebrow" bonnet extensions over the headlights.

can't see us changing our Rivale for an electric Abarth. But, once they hit the showrooms i will go and have a look at one.

If I'm forced to buy an EV (live in the city centre) it'll have to be this, or the new Giulia.

However - I'd be VERY surprised if this has a similar 0-60 time as the 500E. More like 5+ seconds I think
