It sounds like a touring car that burns fossil fuel in its cylinders, but it’s actually an electric power plant that sets the pace: the new Abarth 600e is both a powerhouse and a deception at the same time. The sound generator (which can be ordered as an option) is obviously a concession from the Italian tuning company under the roof of the Fiat garage to its fan base.
For many enthusiasts, the fact that the brand with deep racing roots is now going with the flow and electrifying its models was not Abarth-appropriate, but rather abnormal. But all it takes is one test drive and almost all reservations about a suspected breach of tradition are overcome.
