- Readers of the prestigious Swiss magazine “Auto Illustrierte” have awarded the title of "Best Car" in the Mini Cars category to the just renewed Abarth 595/695 models.
The new year opens with a triumph for the Scorpion brand: for the 2nd time in a row, the Abarth 595/695 model range has been awarded the title of “Best Car” by the prestigious magazine “Auto Illustrierte” in Switzerland. More than 100,000 readers cast their vote, choosing from 422 models currently on the market, divided into 13 categories, each with a special classification for imported cars.
The victory in the “Best Cars” competition is further confirmation of the international success of these small and sporty cars, and of the passion for the Scorpion brand in the market. For this reason, the brand expresses its pride for this achievement and thanks the expert and passionate readers of the specialized magazine who have chosen, for the 2nd time in a row, the Abarth 595/695 range.
The secret of this success lies in the two souls of the brand, performance and style, which make the Abarth 595/695 the ideal car for those seeking the adrenaline rush of the racing world, both in terms of performance and technical content. Moreover, the passion for the two models is renewed with the new range recently launched, which has been streamlined according to the strategy of "simplicity and customer satisfaction”. Customers can now configure their Abarth in just three steps.
Two models are available - either a 165CV Abarth 595 or a 180CV Abarth 695 – which offer thrilling performance, a roaring exhaust, and a playful, yet bold, style. They both can be associated with a Turismo or Competizione soul, as ever, available in both hatchback and convertible versions. The first is meant for those customers who like to stand out of the crowd; the second has been made for hardcore performance and sportsmanship lovers. Two iconic packs, Tech and Comfort, are available to configure one’s customized version, which reflect the brand’s core values of performance and style.
Finally, customers can pick their favorite bold color to finish off the configuration of their new Abarth. Launched in November, the new “Orange Racing” livery is now available and represents the colors that have made the Scorpion legendary.
