Abarth 500 EsseEsse Step1

The Step1 tuned version of Abarth500 EsseEsse has non adjustable aftermarket dampers and lowered springs and an ECU reprogramming which gives a little more boost on the turbos, gaining a fair amount of power and torque. Turning the modern Fiat 500 into an Abarth meant lowering the ride, adding a turbocharger to the 1.4-litre engine (no mean feat under that tiny bonnet), giving it Torque Transfer Control for more aggressive cornering and improving the aerodynamics with side-skirts and spoilers. The little Abarth is fast, very agile and plenty of fun.
