Exploring Abarth Cars in the UAE
History of Abarth
Abarth cars were first manufactured in 1949, introducing a distinctive concept of sports cars to the world. The renowned brand, symbolized by the scorpion logo, recently opened its latest showroom on Dubai Airport Road, aimed at enthusiasts of power and speed in the UAE.
Current Models
Having come a long way since its establishment by Carlo Abarth and Guido Scagliarini six decades ago, the Italian Abarth brand currently features three models:
- Abarth 595
- Abarth 695
- All-New Abarth 124 Spider
Maintaining the brand's DNA, these cars not only deliver high performance and power but are also compact and agile, much like the scorpion.
Specifications of the Abarth 595 and 695
The Abarth 595 and 695 models are available in the Middle East in two body styles (hatchback and convertible) and two variants (595 Competizione and 695 Rivale). Both models are equipped with a powerful 1.4-liter turbocharged engine that generates 180 horsepower and 250 Nm of torque. Their sporty capabilities are further enhanced with:
- Monza / Akrapovic exhaust system
- Brembo brakes
- Automatic gearbox with paddle shifters behind the steering wheel
Specifications of the Abarth 124 Spider
The Abarth 124 Spider convertible shares its chassis with the Mazda MX-5, offering an unconventional driving experience that excites anyone behind its wheel. Weighing in at 1,129 kg, the 124 Spider boasts the best power-to-weight ratio in its class at 6.6 kg per horsepower. Thanks to its 1.4-liter turbocharged MultiAir engine, the 124 Spider delivers 170 horsepower and 250 Nm of torque, with a top speed of 229 km/h.
