Fiat 500 Abarth gets Esseesse kit

The new model of the Fiat 500 Abarth is getting an Esseesse kit.
Fiat is now extending an Esseesse (‘SS’) improvement kit with its 500 Abarth mini hot-hatch.

This alteration is to be carried out at professional Abarth dealers, and the kit includes an altered ECU and newly manufactured air filter to lift the 1.4 turbo engine’s output to 160bhp.
Apart from this the kit also includes larger drilled/ventilated brake discs, new brake pads, upgraded suspension springs, 17″ wheels which are of white or titanium-finish and in addition to this tyre pressure monitoring and unparalleled key cover.

If the car’s warranty has to be valid, the conversion must be held out within 12 months or 20,000km of the car’s first registration. The price of the conversion kit is £2,500.

Fiat sets up ultra–tuned 500 Abarth

Fiat’s 500 Abarth predicts to be a searched for baby hot hatch when it comes in the UK next year, but if its 135bhp is not plenty for you, you have the new esseesse tuning kit.

The esseesse will be brought out at the Paris Show beside the racing version of the 500 and it has more than just a more powerful engine.
New 17-inch alloy wheels – obtainable in white or a titanium finish – form part of the kit and add to the sporting show of the Abarth model.
Brought down springs raise the position too, while new cross-drilled brake discs are equipped front and rear, along with high-performance brake pads at the front.
Performance is boosted by the 160bhp 1.4-litre turbocharged petrol engine, with 0-62mph taking 7.4 seconds and a top speed in excess of 130mph.
