Paparazzi caught the Fiat 500 Abarth Facelift

Fiat presented the facelifted 500 not long ago. Now the brand is showing off the 500 Abarth.

Paparazzi caught the vehicle on its way back from testing that was held in Sweden. The facelifted car was camouflaged, but we noticed a sportier bumper. It also featured bigger air intakes. New lights and revised side skirts also caught our attention.

The cabin reminds of the regular offering. Expect to see a new helm, a revised centre console and improved seats. There probably will be NVH improvements, updated upholstery and a seven-inch TFT display situated in the instrument cluster. The car will benefit from a Uconnect infotainment system with display measuring 5 inches.

You will find a familiar 1.4-litre turbocharged V4 unit under the hood. Its outputs equal to:

• 135 hp (or 100 kW)
• 160 hp (or 119 kW)
• 180 hp (or 134 kW)
• 190 hp (or 141 kW)
• 205 hp (or 152 kW)

The Fiat 500 Abarth will be presented at the Motor Show in Geneva. It is unknown if the high-performance versions will be showcased in Switzerland.
