2022 Abarth 500e first look – the first electric hot hatch?


For most of its life, the Fiat 500 has always had a slightly rowdier brother thanks to in-house tuners Abarth.

These pocket rockets have always been a great laugh, with go-kart driving characteristics, aggressive styling and noisy exhausts.
