Abarth Classiche 1300 OT revives the Alfa Romeo 4C for one last hurrah

The Alfa Romeo 4C is back from the dead. Well, at least partially. This Abarth Classiche 1300 OT doesn’t wear an Alfa Romeo badge, but it’s effectively a re-bodied and re-jiggered 4C built with an eye to the past.

Limited to only five examples, the Classiche 1300 OT is part of Stellantis’ “Reloaded by Creators” project that aims to reinterpret beloved cars of its past in a modern form. This time, the model is the Fiat-Abarth OT 1300 race car from 1965. We’ll put new and old side-by-side below for you to critique how Abarth did.
