Today, just a few weeks before its 73rd anniversary, the Scorpion stings once again with the introduction of its new 595 range, which pays homage to the inventiveness of its founder Carlo Abarth (1908 &#8211; 1979). Always part of Abarth\u2019s DNA, it was the concept of upgrading which guided the work of the designers, engineers and technicians in to redesign the 2022\u2019s range of timeless icons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now available in two models and power levels, the Abarth 595 with 165 hp and Abarth 695 with 180 hp have special features to provide emotions to both customers who are more concerned with style and those for whom performance is a must.

One instantly recalls Scorpion\u2019s legendary tuning kits, which turned standard vehicles into unbeatable race cars in the Sixties. While preserving the brand\u2019s dual soul with regard to its respective target customers, today a customized driving can still be achieved with one of four conversion packs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Abarth 595 can be equipped with the \u201c595 Turismo Pack\u201d, more focused on style, and the \u201cF595 Pack\u201d, which emphasizes performance.<br>Similarly, the already exclusive Abarth 695 can be further customized with the refined \u201c695 Turismo Pack\u201d or with the&nbsp;\u201c695 Competizione Pack\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, 7 packs have been created for customers who desire an even more comprehensive vehicle. They combine the most popular optionals, with significant financial savings, and are available on both models (except for the Racing Style Pack, which is exclusive to the Abarth 695).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the most significant features of this last pack is surely the &#8220;Spoiler ad Assetto Variabile&#8221; \u2013 adjustable to 12 positions, 0 with an inclination from 0\u00b0 to 60\u00b0 &#8211; which allows for an increase in aerodynamic load, resulting in improved stability on bends and greater responsiveness in mixed sections. In the maximum inclination position (60\u00b0), the spoiler increases the aerodynamic load by up to 42 kilograms at a speed of 200 km\/h. This sporty feature calls back to the world of racing and the Scorpion\u2019s legendary history within it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Abarth 595: 165 hp of pure adrenaline<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 595 model is the entry-level model of the Abarth range and offers a series of amenities, which ensures the enjoyment and pleasure of driving a Scorpion vehicle.<br>The silhouette is enhanced by 16\u201d alloy wheels, a double chrome exhaust, front fog lamps and mirror caps in body color.

However, the new Abarth 595 is also a balanced expression of sportiness, as demonstrated by its Koni rear suspension and<br>Abarth\u2019s special, high-performing braking system which offers the most in safety thanks to its 284-mm front and 240-mm rear ventilated discs.<br>The beating heart of the new Abarth 595 is the 165 hp, 1.4 T-jet Euro 6D Final engine, equipped with an increased Garrett turbocharge with a geometric compression ratio of 9:1. This combination provides a top speed of 218 km\/h, and fifth gear acceleration from 80 to 120 km\/h in just 7.8 seconds.

This allows one to quickly accelerate and effectively brake, which is a must for an enjoyable, sporty drive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to its extraordinary performance, the new Abarth 695 provides refined style, as can be seen in some of its \u201ctar cold gray\u201d details: from the molding to the door handles, and the mirror caps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The same color choice creates a unique dashboard fascia, which has always been an iconic element of the Abarth model. The exclusiveness of the materials can also be easily seen in the Alcantara-upholstered cockpit, in the steering wheel which combines Alcantara and carbon fiber, and in the aluminum gear knob. The alternation of fine materials and more technological elements of design creates a unique and exclusive combination in this market segment.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 695 Turismo pack, the unmistakable style of a gentleman driver<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For sporty customers and connoisseurs of fine materials, the Scorpion brand has created the 695 Turismo pack, which enhances the stylistic characteristics of the Abarth 695 in the hatchback or convertible models.

Everything is made even more exclusive with the 17\u201d alloy wheels and the &#8220;695 Turismo&#8221; badge. A sunroof is included in the pack to provide an extraordinary, open-air drive. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 695 Competizione pack, the roots of the Abarth elaboration<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 695 Competizione pack is an authentic concentration of exclusivity, performance, and racing spirit. Available on the Abarth 695 it turns a basic model into a vehicle for expert drivers. This can be seen in its Record Monza Sovrapposto exhaust system &nbsp;which provides both sound and driving pleasure. The same goes for the Sabelt seats with red stitching and carbon shell which guarantee greater lateral support and are perfect for sporty driving. Equipped with a carbon shell and made in fabric, they are manufactured with specific materials to ensure greater grip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lastly, the customer who purchases the 695 Competizione pack can choose (included in the price) between the mechanical limited slip differential, which improves traction in difficult conditions and uneven roads, or the Abarth robotized sequential gearbox with steering wheel paddles. Highlighted on the body, there is the \u201c695 Competizione\u201d badge, whose roots go way back in the brand\u2019s history.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Turning the ordinary into the extraordinary by offering the best products in the compact sports car segment is the mission of Abarth, a brand which has always been synonymous with Italian performance and style.
