I'd consider one if they change the look of it!
Not my cup of tea!

[Salvos_white_abarth]

they do everything in their power  to hide the shape of it so itl look a lot different

As Salvos said, I like that it has a longer bonnet. Almost like a little muscle car.

I know it is Auto Express so to be taken with a pinch of salt... but news is news!

Had a interesting chat the other day about this but they were leaning towards having the 1.4 mutiair system that already in place on the abarth version at around the 180bhp mark.

Rounded/oval grill and bonnet bulges to throwback to the orginal also but was told it looks nothing like the renderings doing the rounds. Either way I am excited

I can see the 1.7 tb being available for the Abarth and high end Fiat versions

Ooooooooo i cant friggin wait!

We went too far with the Punto Abarth – the Punto is a family car and the Abarth version was seen as a bit of a stretch. I stopped production of it 15 months ago because it was not targeted at the true Abarth customer – an Abarth has to be something special and a family car cannot offer this.”

But the 500x is more a family car than the punto...i thoight 500x was a potential New abarth.

The 500x Abarth will be awesome I've seen concepts, will have more power too.

Concepts of the 124 Abarth look good too. Really like the rear.
