    CORRECTION: No DIFF on this model. That only comes with the optional performance pack.

      The TTC on this car does a decent job without the LSD and the car corners very well. I don't think you really need the LSD unless you drive like a lunatic or you're taking this on a track. It's a a really fun car to drive with plenty of grunt for its size and one of the best sounding hot hatches you can buy.

      In fact, mechanical diff but only with manual gearbox... For instance, I have made my choise now : ABARTH 695 RIVALE cab 180 HP, AKRAPOVIC exhaust. :-D I had much more powerfull cars once... from 250 to 300 HP but seriously, this pocket rocket gives me much more fun to drive !!! :-( By the way, are you sure with you 5.81" chrono ? Thank you and take care ! :-D

    I had a 2010 Esseesse for 5 years from new with 160bhp. It was bags of fun. Back then they all came with an Interscope stereo with sub and CD player and was the best sounding / balanced system I've heard in a car. My Renaultsport Megane replaced it but after 8 years it's costing me a fortune in maintenance. Thinking of going back to Abarth and a 180 Comp with LSD, Xenons and Beats Audio would tempt me. Wouldn't be as capable but just as much fun, given I still miss my old Abarth (which shows how much of a charm it had). Great review

    We got the equivalent to the Turismo/Esse Esse in the States, 160 hp/175ft/lbs torque. I have a 2018 Abarth Cabrio and I love it. Added the Seletron Chipbox and Go Pedal and it puts the hp around the BiPosto hp and it surprises a lot of people with faster cars.

    Great review. Abarth was a car that I considered for a very long time. Drove one, and had a loads of fun. My problem is that I don't believe you get good value for money. I had ended up with 2011 Mini Cooper S and very happy with that choice. Even with the money that I had to put into it in a first year of ownership, it's still cheaper than any of the 595's I was looking at.

    Seems like a fun car. No idea why they put a 500 logo on the dash though…and it’s ingrained so you can’t get rid of it. And not being able to change the driver seat height is crazy

    • @janeverrell750
      @janeverrell750 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      They put the 500 logo on all Fiat variants to link them back to the original Cinquecento. I think it's overkill though and no numbers need to be on the dash. I wouldn't want 595 on the dash either.

    • @varmastiko2908

      It's a cost cutting thing. Producing a different panel for the Abarth model without that '500' logo would have been an extra expense. Same with the boot handle.

      @ElAmokoLoco ปีที่แล้ว

      @@joaopereira3702 TTC is an electronic support which breaks the inner wheel for a more direct turn-in as soon as a loss of traction is detected. It cannot replicate a proper limited slip diff, though, because it "intervenes" too late compared to a mechanical diff. And by applying the brakes it makes the car slower around the corner meanwhile a mechanical diff distributing the power to the outside wheel should make your car faster. If that "tad bit slower" with TTC really matters on a public road, is a different matter.
