This Abarth was the first car I ever raced on Spa-Francorchamps. Have you ever driven a car on a race track? And which?
Nurburgring Nordschleife. 😎
@@romb1818 oooh, would LOVE to drive there some day!
Did you race it in forza 4?
@@fms7293 yeah man 😅😊😮😢😂😮
@@fms7293 I am not a child, like you. If you aren't able to do something, it doesn't mean others can do.
How stupid must you be? It is opened for Track sessions 🤦
Absolutely love the style of your vids, all the info, none of the rubbish
Thanks! Appreciated. ✨🙏✨
Knock knock, tap tap…..is that good ??????
Hi all! Subtitles in a gazillion languages are coming asap! ✌😄
UPDATE: subtitles are here!
I usually watch it in English, but I appreciate the Turkish subs :)
Great introduction to the new 695 SS. I have the 595 Turismo (165bhp) and it’s a great daily runner. Always puts a 😃 on my face
Really love these pocket rockets 🏁
Pocket rocket? This is actually shitty car.
@@tarzan6678 tf up stay driving your altima
I always loved Pocket Rockets and Kei Cars 💙🤍❤️
Great vid. Timing of the text in the video is spot on and the detailed sound. Just lovely. Very well done!
Thanks, appreciate it! ✨🙏✨
The horse and cart had perfect timing
Great upload! The car looks like good fun to drive 👍
Если увидит свою тачку в салон имеет какие-то элементы, красного цвета- значит спортивные тачка у тебя!!!! Только запомните!!! 💪💪💪
Had a 500 lounge. Traded up to an Abarth. And am in love. 😊
You wont hit 200 with that wing up. The standard wing makes some down force. That adjustable wing in the up position is just a brake.
no only 198 ha ha
Lol...
200 down hill from a very high mountain 👀
That’s absolutely no problem, I’ve hit 212 km/h (202 gps) with 160 hp in my Citroen c2 on semi slicks and it would have gone further if it didn’t hit the limiter
@@Jonas-hh9fu Did you have a giant airbrake on the back end? My NA Abarth easily hits 200 with plenty left to go with the standard wing. No Autobahn needed.
I used to have a 595 Abarth esseesse. The car I regret the most for selling. I was leaving the country at that time so had to sell it. Now I have a M bimmer, still miss that car a ton
Шикарный микрофон. Абсолютно все звуки очень натурально передал прям во мне домой. Спасибо за видео.
Beast of a car, we've loved every Abarth model we've driven, real drivers cars, agile, nimble and great power
I finally got it when I drove it on track. 👌
With the 2003 Fiat Panda platform? An outdate grear box, not so responsive steering and a driving pisition worthy of a van you call it beast and real drivers car? To me that shows you havent driven a real drivers car yet...
@@nalover2442 fancy a track day? What’s your equivalent car, and no we’ve not driven many cars or own many for that matter, next you’ll be telling us hydraulic steering is outdated and rightly so.
@@PlanetautoUK I said outdated gearbox not steering ahahahah youre not even worth my time since you cant even read.
Bye
Magnifique un reve j adore ces petit jouet super video merci
Just got a new 695 Abarth and love it.
The best POV i ever seen
Really nice exhaust sound
Good Job With Your Videos Johnny!
thanks! ✌️😄
Great vid, funny seeing all the cinquecentos on the track, here in CA I'm surrounded by hulking gas guzzling SUV's on my daily commute to the city.
love that Abarth exhaust note, pure heaven.
Thanks, glad you liked it! I was driving a 700 hp RAM TRX some days ago, I think I get what you’re talking about… that thing is huge and LOUD!
Fabulous car. I love it. Gladiator we salute you!
Love this!
✨🙏✨
Best 4 cyl sound by far. Had 2 Abarths, the only car I bought twice 😃
Mini JCW pro exhaust is probably the best 4 cylinder sound to be fair...
@@luciocesaro6926 the Akrapovic, maybe
Love this! I've made a video on the car as well, and must say that this little rocket really comes to life on a backroad! Wish I experienced it on a circuit.
Great Sound. Looking in from Ireland 🇮🇪
Love your car bro. Esse Esse is definitely the best spec. Nice colour too love the white mirrors and wheels and stickers. Red seatbelts look sick.
It's a lovely little car! 🥰
Great video thx 😊
I love this car...🤘🤘🤘
This thing a track monster look at this lil guy
i REALLY ENJOYED WITH YOU, AN I AM PLANNING TO BUY ONE SO THATS HELPS ME A LOT TAHNKS.
Glad to hear that this channel can help you out, that was one of the reasons for starting it! 👌✨
For top speed those angled rear flap isn’t the best option, definitely
No I’ve learnt that now, next time it needs to go flat!
Try it and let us know but I don’t think it will get you to 200km/h, maybe very close. You should also try a step1 remap with a soft tuning of the exhaust line like a downpipe with a 200 cells catalytic and GPF off. The idea is to optimise what you already have that is fair enough to have real fun with this car.
I own simple 500 and even with NA engine it's one of the best cars. Keeps me smiling everytime. For note: I have 1.4l with manual gearbox=)
One of the best bangs for Bucks cars out there. never owned one but I did hire one for a 10 holiday in Austria , we had a blast driving this car in Austria this is a great car to drive for such a small car .
its rlly expensive for a sht car like this, you can buy better second hand
@@thuglife2791 like everything there is always something better out there if you need it that is , In my case living in a large City with major Parking issues and good public transport. I current have no need for a Car If and when I need such things then Hire cars or Car Share fits my bill.
Nice car,sounds great maybe i buy one
No, Honzo, o těch pětistovkách a o tom, jak moc je to podle tebe efektivní a jak tím řídíš Matrix, o tom mu musíš taky říct!!!
Bude koukat :D :D ten bude přímo čumět :D bude úplně vedle z ty tvý mystrný "hry" plný "nápadů" :D
What a beautiful little hooligan... ..race deodorant..😁 I thought video ended after racetrack ,but you gave us more ...bonus. ,love this charming little car, thank you for posting.
thanks for watching & commenting, glad you liked the video! 🙏🙏
Nice little sporty car i luv it ^^
Merci pour cette belle vidéo. J'ai le même moulin sur la mienne + un stage 1. Plein de lacunes d'équipement et des finitions moyennes mais c'est un petite bombinette que j'adore cravacher au quotidien et dans certaines situations, j'ai déjà déposé des SUV PORSCHE bien plus puissants mais surtout des enclumes... LIGTH IS RIGTH ! ❤
Can the rear flap be adjusted in different nuances or is it just "full or nothing"?
I think the increased roof spoiler was a massive air brake at the race track.
It was. But man, that downforce! 💪😂
lovely car
This car is crazy! :D
I love this style of videos so much!! I also own a abarth 595 competizione and that car is a little rocket! And I didnt know until now that 695 models come with adjustable rear wing and it looks sooo good. Is it maybe possible to upgrade it?
not sure how i ended up at this video but i stayed and was not dissappointed.
I take that as a compliment. And welcome!
ITS SO SATISFIED TO WATCH
Thanks, love to hear that! 🙏
0:07 Immediate dash scratch. Bravo.
Yes, one of my brighter moments! 🤦♂️
Great car
Naprawdę ciekawa bryka 😁👍
Love sound
I have the fiat 500 lounge and I love it but these abarths are next level omg 🤤
Yes, I’ve driven both and the experience is quite different :)
Next level of garbage
@@jojoe_rt loool🤣
@@HardcoreWeeaboo that's not a sport car... FACT
My fav car
I assume you have TTC turned on when driving in rainy weather?
Amazing car❤️
✨🙏✨
Un mostro!
It was nice to watch the driving experience at a video playback x2 speed
Very very nice car
Damn I wish we had these in the states
What a wonderful video, very happy to have stumbled across your channel 👌
Thanks! ✨🙏✨
I really like these little Cars, i love the fact you can get someting with great sound at a reasonable price. Only downside is the horrendous gearbox.
Your property/house looks amazing! May you make a tour about it?
thanks! But the house is nothing special really... The surrounding area is great and I've put all my money into renovating my driveway, so I could make these videos. ✌️😄 Who knows, maybe if I do a POV drive of my simracing rig, I can do it inside the house. Thanks for watching!
@@johnnypovdrives I see, it's visual aesthetic. Keep up Johnny, really like your videos!
@@antonioarmetta2872 thank you Antonio, much appreciated! 🙏
@@johnnypovdrives PoV drive of your Simracing rig would be perfect for April Fools.
Love your videos, have a nice week!
Merci pour ce partage, une question en levant ton aileron tu gagnes en appui mais tu perds en vitesse de pointe. Tu as essayer de tourner aileron à l'horizontal pour voir la différence de vitesse de pointe sur le circuit
En effet, il faut choisir entre la déportance et la vitesse. .... avec l'aileron complètement à plat et sur une piste sèche, nous pourrions atteindre les 200 km/h. J'espère pouvoir le tester à nouveau la prochaine fois ! 🤞😄
I was thinking "S-easy" like "it's easy"
Супер!
Just as well that red front-seat release worked...
Wow
🔥🔥🔥
👊😄
Thank you by your video!! Sorry man, I'd like to drive your fantastic Abarth and I could beat your time! Congratulations!
Any time! 👊 Thanks for your comment and for watching.
Be nice to be able to get these in the states.
0:47 Simba😄
Mettere un pistoncino nel cofano al posto dell'asta?
Abarth is sooooo nice
👊😄 yeah baby!
Li vendi i sedili anteriori??
Series 3 was quite cool except of the immense amount of quality issues it suffered from. From series 4 on (european version with t-jet engine) fiat/fca introduced a new function into the ecu to deliver a full 3 seconds long total power failure on power request to prevent the engine/exhaust noise becoming too loud. So dependend on the will of the ecu you lost 3 seconds when you shift from 2nd to 3rd, 3 sec. again from 3rd to 4th and another 3 sec. from 4th to 5th.
These sound amazing for what they are. I would have gotten one as a fun little daily, but worry about reliability, so I'm still waiting for the Corolla GR to come out Stateside.
Nice car, drive safe!
Thanks Jeff! I would love to drive that Corolla GR, but they don't come out here...
@@johnnypovdrives Sadly, we only have the Corolla GR coming, I would rather have the Yaris GR that is available outside of the States.
Be safe, my friend.
@@jeffl1484 that Yaris GR is just 🔥🔥🔥
@@jeffl1484 it is sad indeed - many a US heart has been broken for want of a Yaris GR *sniff* If memory serves, there was some sort of petition going around way back in 2020 pleading for Toyota to bring it to the States. But the Corolla GR is looking VERY promising 😀
They are shit when it comes to reliability.... Same with the latest 3 cilinder fiesta ST's
Hey Johnny quick question, would you say that this car is more fun than the mx-5, I have only driven the mx-5 and it absolutely stunning. I have not driven the abarth yet so thats why I am asking you. Great video 💯
No. MX5 is more fun. Because rear wheel drive 😎
Keep the mx-5. The Abarth looks, feels and sounds great - but after driving Abarth for 8,5 years (both the 500 and 595) I know the build quality is really low and dependend of the country where you want to drive the ecu delivers a 3 sec power failure to make the car stay within legal noise emissions ...
If you want the Abarth fun into an MX5, all you have to do is to buy a 124 spider, which is precisely a MX5 with the turbocharged Abarth engine under the hood.
do like these cars, alweays hold a high respect in my heart as ive owned two. But the biggest issue for me was the crazy high seating position and lack of reach adjust steering wheel
Oh yeah, I have a 695 rivale for a month and I’m like why the car is so low and the seating so high, I’m pretty tall something like 1.85m the pedals are too close for me and the steering a little bit too far, the car is unique this is people love it I think
If u suffered dermatitis to hands like I do, you'd 💩 yourself getting that dirt on your hands.
Nice car, nice video
magnifica
🙏🙏🙏
10 000 PS on the front wow
Great video 👍🏻but wish there was a 4x4 🎉😎
Thanks! Yeah that would be cool! :)
Wuaooo ✌👍😎❤ from 🇮🇹👍✌
Grazie! 🙏
nice car
Pocket rocket! Thanks for watching! 🙏
When I first saw it, it looked like "Eeeeeeeeee".
The doors sound like theyre made from biscuit tins. 🤣🤣🤣
❣️
Does the torque drop off at the top end after 5000rpm like in the 595?
Also Sound Serie ist einfach der Wahnsinn, leider muss man aber auch sagen der Preis des Abarth ist auch Wahnsinn. Um unter 40.000€ bekommt man ein I30N
Show.
I have a suggestion for Johnny Please, you can review the Fiat Egea Hybrid in Turkey, at least I'm curious about your opinions.
Hi! We don't know it as an Egea, but I think it's sold as a Tipo here. I will check if I can get one somewhere to drive (so not a promise). Thanks for watching!
@@johnnypovdrives Yes, you are telling the truth in the market with the name Tipo abroad, because Fiat mostly comes out of Turkey to the whole world or from the Tofaş Turkish automobile factory in Bursa.
Whats the difference between abarth and fiat?
Is This model also come with automatic transmission?
I’m not sure, I’ve driven automatic Abarth cars before but not an Esseesse
Haben die neuen abarth opf?
New car - blue smoke. Fiat always knew how to surprise.
What I don’t understand is that it only has a 5-speed. My Mito ha a 6-speed and at 120 km/h it already sounds as if it wants to shift to the next gear 😅
Чел, ты не прижимную силу накрутил, а воздушный тормоз себе создал.
Oil in the exhaust?
That's carbon
🤩😀👍👍👍
I missed my 2018.
The best part is the noise, otherwise performance wise you’d better get a Fiesta ST for the same amount of money, especially if you want to use it on a track
