The Abarth 695 75ª Aniversario will be the star of the brand's show in Turin

This year we reach the 75th anniversary of Abarth, so it is a time for celebration. To mark the occasion, Stellantis Heritage has organised an exhibition at the Heritage Hub where many of the brand’s models can be seen. The most classic ones will be on display, but visitors can also admire the brand’s latest offerings. One of them is the Abarth 695 75th Anniversary, created for this celebration.

This is the culmination of all these models, making it the perfect cherry on top of the brand’s first 75 years. As it is a special celebration model, it has been decorated with specific details so that it looks great. The scorpion logo is placed on both sides of the car. The roof also looks spectacular, and the 17-inch alloy wheels, also in gold like the logo, reinforce the celebratory character of the model.

Inside, black upholstery with Alcantara inserts has been fitted in several areas of the cabin. The seats are signed by Sabelt and, together with the interior equipment, create a sporty aesthetic that catches the eye. The 75th Anniversary logo gives it the right touch to make it recognisable and attractive.

As for the engine, this model features the 1.4 T-Jet unit, which, besides being very efficient, has set the number of units available for sale. Indeed, 1,368 units will be sold, an identical number to the 1,368 cc displacement of this engine.

This engine is boosted by a Garrett GT1446 turbocharger and delivers 180 CV of power and a maximum torque of 250 Nm at 3,000 rpm. Top speed is quoted at 225 km/h and the 0 to 100 km/h acceleration time is 6.7 seconds. The brakes are high-performance, consisting of 305×28 mm ventilated and drilled discs, plus a Monza exhaust and Koni FSD dampers on both axles.

Connectivity of the Abarth 695 75th Anniversary

The connectivity system of the Abarth 695 75th Anniversary is based on the Mopar Connect system and is compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Standard equipment also includes automatic air conditioning, and the Beats audio system and navigation are included, as well as a DAB radio with a seven-inch screen.

Alongside this new model, 38 classic models from the brand can be seen from 12 April for three months, so there is plenty of time to discover the rich heritage of this brand. From the first FIAT 500 that Carlo Abarth modified to race at the Monza circuit in 1958, to the Abarth 1000 of the 1960s.
