Fiat is going to introduce two new models, the Punto and the 500, in the Geneva Motor Show, a platform used by many automobile companies to launch their new models. These two exclusives are ready to scorch the roads and their first appearance in the motor show will decide their future in the automobile industry. Abarth has taken care of the deficiencies in these models and has given its badge to them.
Abarth 500c is an ideal vehicle if you are looking for something compact and chic. The quaint bulge over each tyre and a retractable roof give this car a retro yet a la mode look. Abarth has fixed up all the essentials which were making this machine incompetent, like, it added bigger wheels for better grip and a 140 horsepower turbo four, which has a five speed automatic manual and can make you swoosh to 62 miles-per-hour in 7.9 seconds. In short, if you have a scratch on your car, before your neighbors notice it, you will be down the next block.
Punto Evo will feature a 165-hp 1.4-liter turbocharged MultiAir four, because Abarth is still making small changes in this model, which it will introduce as Abarth 500C Esse-Esse.
