The FIAT 500 Abarth is a performance-oriented model of the classic FIAT 500 family car, which was released in 2007. It includes a turbocharged engine, sport-tuned suspension, and a sporty design. Features such as a sporty exhaust, revised bumpers, and a lowered ride height help to further differentiate it from the basic FIAT models. The Abarth model was also sold in the United States, offering drivers a car with a more powerful engine and more aggressive styling. The production of the Abarth ended in 2016.
