Why choose Abarth hire

Choosing Abarth means getting in touch with one of the most recognisable interpretations of Italian sportiness. The brand was founded in 1949 on the initiative of Carlo Abarth and built its reputation by transforming compact cars into machines with surprising performance, capable of distinguishing themselves as much on the road as in touring car racing and high performance tuning. Even today, this philosophy remains intact: low weight, short wheelbase, responsive turbo engines and a technical approach geared towards immediate involvement.

Contemporary models clearly express this identity. Abarth 595 adopts the well-known 1.4 T-Jet turbo petrol, offered in the various power evolutions that have made the model a reference among compact hot hatchbacks. The Abarth 695 takes this formula towards an even more intense characterisation, with a tuning that favours response, set-up and stage presence. The Abarth 124 Spider, on the other hand, transfers the language of the Scorpion to a rear-wheel drive roadster with a 170 bhp 1.4 turbo engine, manual or automatic gearbox depending on configuration, top speed in the region of 230 km/h and a 0-100 km/h of around 6.8 seconds.

In the automotive world, Abarth is unique because it does not seek power as an isolated fact, but the relationship between mass, chassis and engine. The result is a car that communicates a lot even at low speeds, with a mechanical physicality that is always perceptible. This is why Abarth is particularly appreciated by those who want an authentic drive, compact in form but dense with technical content and personality.

The Abarth driving experience

Driving an Abarth means perceiving every metre of tarmac with a clarity that is rare in the contemporary world. The first element that defines the experience is the sound: the four-cylinder 1.4 turbo, especially in the configurations equipped with the Record Monza exhaust, produces a metallic, pulsating timbre, with a mumbling on release and a sound progression that accompanies the rise in revs without superfluous artifice. It is a recognisable acoustic signature, compact but present, perfectly consistent with the character of the brand.

The steering is direct, quick in insertion and designed to enhance the car's small size. On the Abarth 595 and 695, the short wheelbase, clearly perceptible track and stiffened set-up give an almost kart-like sensation of immediacy, while the 124 Spider adds the balance of rear-wheel drive and a more progressive chassis feel. The response of the turbocharged engine is prompt in the mid-range, a quality that makes for a brilliant drive both in urban traffic and along a hilly route full of bends.

The interior also makes a decisive contribution. Wrap-around seats, a compact steering wheel, sporty pedals and control-oriented instrumentation define an intimate environment where the driver is always at the centre. Technology supports without overlapping: intuitive infotainment, essential connectivity, immediate controls. In an Abarth, nothing appears distant or filtered; everything is calibrated to keep the dialogue between hands, eyes, ears and mechanics alive.
