2023 Fiat 500e Abarth Is Amplified with a Sound Generator

• The 2023 Fiat 500 Abarth trucks along with a battery-electric version based on the 500e.

• The compact Fiat 500e Abarth will make 155 hp and 173 lb-ft of torque from a single electric motor.

• Feeding that motor is a 42-kWh battery pack that should carry this Fiat 500e Abarth about 200 miles, according to the WLPT test.

Rejoice scorpion fans! There’s hope for Fiat’s legendary Abarth performance brand in the electric age as the Italian automaker rolls out an Abarth variant of its 500e. The transition from the screaming turbocharged 1.4-liter I4 to the battery-electric platform should leave its iconic noise by the wayside, but Fiat will deploy a sound generator to give this machine some snarl. The Abarth variant of the 500e also delivers less power than its internal-combustion cousin but is reportedly quicker in the real world.
