The Novitec Abarth 500 is a hot little pocket rocket, although it’s not as powerful as the Hamann Fiat 500, the Novitec Abarth 500 still packs a punch with 212 horsepower instead of the standard 135 and 240 pound-feet (325 Nm) of torque.
The 1.4 liter 4-cylinder engine gets the extra power with the assistance of an ECU upgrade, a new turbocharger, new less restrictive air filters and an optimised air-cleaner box, a special fuel pressure control and larger injection nozzles. The end result is a little car that could, get to 62 miles per hour in 6.8 seconds and reach a top speed of 139 mph (223 km/h).
On the outside, the Novitec Abarth 500 gets a lowered height by 35 mm and custom made 17 inch (18 inch also available) rims. There is a modified front spoiler lip that’s made out of carbon fiber and the turn signals have been tinted.
