New Abarth 600e: The Most Powerful Abarth Ever Built

With 280 horsepower and 345 Nm of torque, this Abarth is the most powerful ever designed, hitting 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.85 seconds. The model comes in two versions: the Turismo (240 hp) and the limited-edition Scorpionissima (280 hp), each optimized to deliver a uniquely electrifying driving experience.

The 600e was developed alongside Stellantis Motorsport, drawing on their racing expertise to create the Perfo eCMP sport platform. Equipped with a Formula E-inspired electric motor, it also boasts a Torsen limited-slip differential for improved cornering traction, even on slippery surfaces. The Michelin Pilot Sport EV tires and Alcon brakes, borrowed from the world of racing, complete the setup for unparalleled precision and stability.

Three driving modes adjust power and responsiveness to match the driver’s preferences:

  1. Turismo: Delivers 110 kW (Turismo) or 140 kW (Scorpionissima) for a smooth drive.
  2. Scorpion Street: An intermediate setting at 150 kW (Turismo) and 170 kW (Scorpionissima) with maximum torque.
  3. Scorpion Track: Maximum power and an aggressive tune for pure track-day pleasure.

On the outside, the Abarth 600e commands attention with its aggressive design. The front bumper echoes the iconic “cassettone” of the Abarth 850 TC, while the spoiler and 20-inch alloy wheels enhance its bold character. The limited-edition Scorpionissima stands out with exclusive colors like Acid Green and Hypnotic Purple, designed to captivate and embody the brand’s distinctive identity.

Inside, the sporty feel is omnipresent. Sabelt seats with lateral support and Alcantara accents create an interior that’s both comfortable and dynamic. The Scorpion logo is everywhere, a nod to Abarth’s racing passion, while the aluminum dashboard and pedals highlight its competitive spirit.

The Abarth 600e is now available for sale in Europe.
