The new 595 Abarth line-up, which now includes two body types (sedan and convertible), three trim levels (595, 595 Turismo and 595 Competizione) and as many engine power and tuning levels, is designed to satisfy today's increasingly discerning and competent customers. Many of the upgrades are the result of experience gained with the development of the 695 Biposto, the smallest supercar that offers the thrills and technology of a real racing car in a street-legal vehicle.

The distinctive yet affordable 595 version, with its 145hp of power, is the Abarth entry level model, but still offers all the standard equipment needed to ensure the typical enjoyment and driving pleasure expected from the brand.

The 595 Competizione is equipped with a powerful 1.4 T-jet 180hp engine developing torque of 250 Nm at 3000 rpm via its Garrett GT 1446 turbine. The car is ideal for adrenaline junkies looking for racing performance and technical features: 0-100 acceleration in 6.7 seconds and oversized Brembo braking system with four-piston aluminum fixed calipers to bring it to a stop in total safety.

And with a high performance Record Monza exhaust with dual mode system, the engine outputs a specific power of 132hp/L. The exclusive feature is available, on request, on the rest of the range, together with the Record Modena exhaust that ensures the same performance but with a less aggressive looking tailpipe. As standard, all variants of the 1.4 T-jet engine are paired with a mechanical five-speed gearbox but they can be fitted with an Abarth robotized sequential gearbox with shift paddles.

The 595C Turismo boasts a 1.4 T-jet with and 165hp, delivering a top speed of 218 km/h. The convertible model also features developments and innovations created to improve performance. For example, the front end has been redesigned with an increased air intake: this improves heat management in the engine compartment and also boosts cooling capacity by 18%. So, performance and regularity of engine delivery are increased, even in the case of more extreme racing tuning.
