What a small steel cannon! Valve exhaust + Brembo + KONI shock absorption, 280,000 and what GTI to buy?

As one of the most representative models of Fiat, the Fiat 500 was introduced in China by import in 2011, but because the model was too niche, it did not enter the domestic market after the 2013 model. However, with the gradual rise of domestic sports models in recent years, the Fiat 500 has returned to the domestic market again and presented it as a performance version.

Recently, it was learned from relevant channels that the Abarth 595 and 695 series models of Fiat 500 will open pre-sale in China in parallel imports, and the pre-price of new cars will start from 288,000 yuan, and a total of 6 models will be launched.

The reason why it is called the performance version, and therefore the fiat 500 that returns this time, is an Abarth (Abbas) model. It is understood that Abbas is the high-performance series of the Fiat brand, founded by Karl Abarth in 1950, the trademark is the shape of a scorpion, and the sport cars of the Fiat brand are marked by Abarth.

Therefore, the Abarth 595 and 695 are also based on the performance series models created by the mini car Fiat 500, which will have more high-performance kits than the ordinary version of the Fiat 500, of which the F595 model has 17-inch matte black rims (205/40 R17 tires), sports exhaust system, black fabric sports seats, front and rear KONI FSD shock absorbers, BMC air intake system, etc.

The 695 model, from the way it is named, can also reflect that the new car will have a higher upgrade, with 17-inch multi-spoke spokes, fabric racing seats, carbon fiber decorative steering wheel, red Beambo brake calipers and Monza bilateral four-out exhaust system and other higher performance upgrades.

Therefore, the interior of the new car will also be partially upgraded on the ordinary version of the Fiat 500, which is reflected in the replacement of more sporty seats and trademarks that can highlight the identity.

The shape is still relatively mediocre design, equipped with a small size central control screen with built-in.

Although the car is only a two-door model, it also supports four seats, and the space performance can only be considered enough.

In terms of power, according to the information of the overseas version of the model, the Abbas 595 and 695 series models are all equipped with 1.4T turbocharged engines, of which the 595 series engine has a maximum power of 165 horsepower; while the 695 series engine has a maximum power of 180 horsepower, and the latter zero hundred accelerates at the fastest in 6.7 seconds.

In terms of transmission, the 595 and 695 series are available with a 5-speed manual transmission and a 5-speed AMT transmission, and some models are equipped with Attivo exhaust, support for variable valves, and mechanical differentials with automatic locking function to support a more stable driving experience.

Considering that there are relatively few performance small cars that can be bought in China, from the perspective of its price, models such as the MINI JCW and volkswagen golf GTI, which focus on performance, are more in line with their market positioning.

MINI JCW

Guidance price: 34.18-346,800 yuan

Volkswagen Golf GTI

Guidance price: 229,800 yuan

BMW 2 Series 225i

Guidance price: 299,800 yuan

Subaru BRZ

Guidance price: 30.88-330,800 yuan

Considering that the Fiat 500 with abbas blessing is one of the representatives of entry-level performance cars, it will also have a certain degree of playability, coupled with the existence of a high personality, it is presumably favored by some consumers.

However, judging from the car's starting price of nearly 300,000, there are many models to choose from in China, so it is speculated that the car will still be used as a model that is more niche than niche.
