Only one year after the marketing of the standard Fiat 500 in 2007, the Fiat group renewed the sporting tradition of the scorpion brand by presenting the first Abarths derived from the 500. The sedan version was marketed in July 2008, while the convertible version was introduced in March 2010. After the 124 Abarth went out of production, the 595 is the only Abarth model on the market. The car is equipped with the 1.4 T-Jet engine with powers of 145, 165 and 180 horsepower. The most exclusive versions are called 695.
