In this video we take a first look at the first all electric Abarth. The Abarth 500e 'Scorpionissima'. With 155 horsepower the Abarth 500e will do 0-60 in 7 seconds, which is 0.1 seconds slower than the most powerful Abarth 695, however the mis-range acceleration and track performance of the 500e are actually better than the ICE car.
The Abarth 500e has a 42kWh battery giving a range of around 150 miles. It supports 85kw charging giving an 80% charge in just 35 minutes.
The Abarth 500e has 3 drive modes; Turismo, Scorpion Street and Scorpion Track and sounds like a petrol Abarth thanks to the innovative external sound generator.
Thanks to Joe at Full Gas Creative for the fantastic camera work and Simon for the awesome thumbnail !

Outstanding video Peter. Really loved the 4K, so crisp and clear and detailed, definitely the way ahead if and when you can film with it. The wee Abarth is absolutely stunning, really do love how it looks and the colour. I’m impressed with the interior and like most do struggle with the price, but then lots of electric cars are expensive! For me, I really love the sound generator, it’s funky and different. I know it’s not for everyone, however it’s a cool, funky and fun wee car so why not have the ability to have fun with the sound. I love gadgets and really do like this one. Can’t wait to see a driving video. Well done Peter 👏🏻☺️👌🏻👍🏻

Another excellent video Ped. Used to own a 500 twinair and it was nippy enough, never been in an Abarth though. Guess that would take it to the next level ! Love the style evolution of this latest electric version but 150 mile range might consign it to being a weekend toy.

Owned a 'New 500' now for over 13 years, just flew through its MOT and used mainly as a city car, only 49,235 miles (!), so was looking at the 500e when funds allowed or on that 'Onto' option. Chuckled at the sound, it is much, much better than both my friends Tesla and next doors hybrid Ford Kugar when they are reversing. Both sound like they've got a handful of ball bearings rattling around in the drivetrain as the pedestrian warning! Nicely shot Vlog too👍🇬🇧...

Totally agree PP, I think it looks Super Cool.

@RB-lt8kt Год назад

Brilliant review with subtle grey back drop which sets the car off perfectly and so well presented no wonder you do BT training videos. I never thought FIAT would make ALL other EV cars look so boring (Tesla's already boring enough to look at) . Love the colour but possibly too bright for a driver of my age. Interior looks stunning and at last a manufacturer fitting AC button controls in a cool way under the infotainment screen (listen up manufacturers). Alloy wheels are amazing ! Range might be an issue for some but 80 to 100 miles in winter and 140 miles in summer most probably achievable. What MANY people looking at buying an EV car over look is smaller batteries take less time to charge on 7kw home chargers. Any EV with over 58kwh battery might struggle to charge overnight. If you have a low electricity rate between midnight and 4 am you will only get 28kwh of charge (7kw times 4) so the rest is at a higher rate. If you have a solar array and battery bank then which one do you charge overnight on the cheap rate, the car or the battery ? How many long trips do we really do in the UK, 3 or 4 a year ? Most daily trips / commutes are less than 60 miles.

@robmccarthy3737 Год назад

Great vid as always Pete but for me as an Abarth owner this is a great looking car compared to the current parts bin offerings being sold off but that's where it ends for me as they should have offered a petrol alternative as the sound of an Akra or a Monza is what these cars are all about. At pushing £40K with only 150 mile range sadly not for me so I'll be looking for a late petrol Comp or EsseEsse as my last throw to buy as a keeper. Keep it up with the great content!!

another really enjoyable vid ped, i really liked some of the styling with this car, the indicators are excellent, love the seats i am a real fan of alcantara/leather. but the elephant in the room is 38.5k for a city car that in real world driving probably won't get near the predicted range. i like the colour and the styling but wouldn't pay that kind of money for a car with such limitations.

Very interesting and professional report, although the Abarth seems very expensive compared with the 500e, which has a recorded 0-60 time of 8 seconds dead on several UK-based RU-vid channels and as low as 6.95 seconds in one case. I've owned a 500e for over a year and build quality is superb, so I'll guess the Abarth is the same. But I don't know how I feel about that fake exhaust noise as I like the sound of an electric motor!

@philipparkes5682 Год назад

Hi Ped Congratulations on a very interesting pro video. Have to agree very cool looking car, but at that price 😥 I know we are getting closer to the ICE ban, but I do think there will be problems ahead on the EV route. I know in our own household Mrs P will not be parted from her 500C, which she adores, only 12000 on the clock and in immaculate condition, and of course no range anxiety!

Well balanced video as usual, you’re still one of the few EV evangelisti that is willing to accept that they are not the be all and end all of future transport and recognises that there are still problems to overcome 👍🏻👍🏻. But …. why do all journalists/vloggers consign any car less 4m long and sub 200ish hp as a “City car” is this so that any small EV with an unacceptably short range is given an excuse, or has a new class of car arrived that is only any practical use in the city, or are journos so spoilt that they couldn’t possibly consider a 200 mile trip in a small car? Most of us have “A Car” it has to be a jack of all trades, if not a master of any particular discipline. Car manufacturers and journos need a reality check very quickly, I’m pretty sure that £60k and 2.5 tonne monsters, no matter how technically clever, are not the answer to a global energy price crisis, never mind, as you more eloquently said, the answer to CO2 emissions.

Great review and nicely produced 🙂 Looks fantastic inside and out but for the price needs to be pushing out more power (at least 180bhp, and ideally 200bhp), even if that is from a time limited boost button to protect the battery pack - after all a car like this is going to be ragged at every set of lights! I think the fake engine noise should just one of several choices including a more EV hyperdrive type sound - so you can take you pick or just switch it off, as the mood suits.

I owned all the versions of the 500, diesel, pertrol 1.2, 1.4, 1.4 Competizione 180hp, Twinar and now a 2022 500electric. The electric version is a dissapointment, very expensive and in the real world driving ( mostly town and suburban area) only manages 20kw/100km ( climate on 22deg winter/summer). Like any other electric car I drove, in order to meet the WLTP figure, you have to drive consistently slow, freeze in the winter and with no A/C in the summer. For a 40 000euro city commuter, no thanks. Not to mention all the erratic electronic glitches ( infotainment, AEB, etc) that appear and dissapear for no reason. I recently began to use a 2016 petrol 500 twinair automatic and rediscovered how trully great, incredibly practical and stress free little car the 500 was. Don t get me started how you "save" on maintenance in a electric car vs a petrol one, they are already hugely overpriced for what they are and they are all heavily susbsidized from tax payers money. " Sustainable" is about wasting less, not buying a new 2 ton car every 3 years, and building house appliances that don t fail suddenly after 2 years of normal use. I will not waste my earned money on this "greener" future. It is all about politics and is not sustainable.

150 mile range is poor, considering this will be practically unacheivable.....and if you take into account that FIAT themselves have said that if you use the heater on the standard 500e, the range will be reduced by around 40%. So that leaves well under 100 miles of range. So we have what is, in practice, a 2+2 that will cost nigh on £40k that makes a ridiculous noise and can't really take you anywhere but on the weekly shop......which probably won't fit in it anyway. A city car maybe, but not many living in cities have home charging facilities.

Indeed, some pedestrians will hear and heed, but others who simply can't hear or are using their own sound generators will not be aware, and a degree of danger comes from the drivers of any vehicle that assumes they can be heard. That said, if we have to put up with any extra noise generation from any vehicle, I admit this Abarth would be one of my top choices.

Very echoey studio. This is after some work on the audio 😳

I'd miss changing gear too much but it does seem cool. Price will, no doubt being an EV, be too much 🙄

Tempted but the range probably isn't quite there, think I'll hold out for the R5 Gordini

Controversially I disagree, the eyebrows make the headlights look comically round. The colour and everything about its design makes it looks like a Disney cartoon, the sound confirms it.
