ABARTH 695 BIPOSTO: GOODWOOD HILLCLIMB!

The most Abarth of all Abarths will climb Goodwood’s legendary Hill at the

Festival of Speed.

After its road début in the Gumball 3000 – the non-competitive rally restricted to just 120 exclusive supercars – “the fastest Abarth ever” is ready to show off all its power in the temple of supercars: the Goodwood Festival of Speed next week. This event attracts more than 150,000 people, including enthusiasts, collectors and experts and racers from all over the world. Now the Abarth 695 biposto is ready for a new challenge: the demanding Goodwood Hillclimb. A spectacular route that, with a climb (between the beginning and the end), puts the technical characteristics of all participating cars to the test.

The Goodwood Festival is the ideal stage for showing off the power and the style of the Abarth 695 biposto, powered by the 190 horsepower, 1.4-liter T-jet engine. It’s the most powerful engine ever installed in a road-going Abarth. Acceleration from 0 to 62 mph takes just 5.9 seconds, making it the quickest front-wheel-drive sedan on the market. It’s the first car in the world to offer the possibility of an H-pattern gearbox with dog rings, type-approved for road use, to make the driving experience even more thrilling.

At just four months from launch, the Abarth 695 biposto is already an icon as far as Abarth fans are concerned, thanks to the support of Selenia, Akrapovic for the exhaust system, Extreme Shox for adjustable shock absorbers and MXL for the digital data logger.
Plus four-point Abarth Corsa by Sabelt seats, Brembo brakes, 18-inch OZ wheels and
a rear Poggipolini titanium anti-roll bar.
