A few months after the presentation of the 600the version arrives Abarth of the 600. The new electric sports model was born from the collaboration with Stellantis Motorsport, the division of the automotive group dedicated to racing and racing activities. The second electric Abarth in history will therefore have 240 HP of power and will be developed on the platform Perfo-eCMP, an evolution of the platform for sports applications eCMP.
600 Abarth performance
The electric Abarth 600 was presented as the Most powerful Abarth everequipped with an electric motor from 240 HPself-locking differential developed for electric motors, specifically calibrated suspensions and an upgraded braking system.
Inside, it will incorporate technologies derived from Stellantis' experience in Formula E with the DS brand, included tyres exclusive based on electric single-seater competitions, ensuring maximum grip without compromising autonomy and acoustics thanks to a double compound.
The car will also have racing seats enveloping with four different paddings to support various areas of the body. It remains to be confirmed whether the future electric Abarth 600 will adopt the same package 54 kWh batteries of the standard version.
How the electric Abarth 600 will look like
As per Abarth tradition, you can imagine the exteriors more aggressive bumpers, larger side skirts and wheel arches and aerodynamic spoilers. The classic decorative stripe on the doors and the scorpion emblem are also very likely.
Inside, as has already happened for theAbarth 500e and other previous specimens, some can already be imagined carbon and alcantara details throughout the cockpit.
Electric motor sound
To keep the Abarth spirit intact, there will be an artificial engine sound via a sound generator already used on the Abarth 500e. While uprated and true to the original combustion engine, this may not please purists.
Release date and price
The possible release date of the Abarth 600 could be 2025at a price of approx 50,000 euros. However, the final version may have a different cost and name.
Up to now Abarth has limited itself to providing the first images of the camouflaged prototype engaged in development tests and affirming that it will be the most powerful Abarth ever.
