2017 Abarth 595 Trofeo UK prices announced

Abarth has confirmed specifications and pricing for its new 595 Trofeo, which arrives at UK dealers later this month.

Power is provided by a 1.4 litre TJet turbocharged petrol engine that comes with a four-tailpipe Record Monza exhaust. Output is rated at 158 bhp (118 kW / 160 PS), plus 230 Nm (170 lb/ft) of peak torque is available in Sport mode.

Those figures mean the 595 Trofeo can accelerate from standstill to 62 mph (100 km/h) in 7.3 seconds, before maxing out at 135 mph (217 km/h).

Efficiency doesn’t seem too bad either, as 47.1 mpg (6.0 l/100km) and CO2 emissions of 139 g/km have been recorded on the official combined cycle. That’s despite having to make do with just a five-speed manual gearbox.

In hatchback guise, the 2017 595 Trofeo costs from £17,290. Alternatively, the convertible version is £2,000 more expensive.

The standard specification includes 17” matt black ‘Formula’ alloy wheels, shock absorbers with Frequency Selective Damping valves, a Uconnect touchscreen-controlled infotainment system, black fabric upholstery and Abarth Red paintwork.

Four other exterior finishes are being offered. However, Campovolo Grey and Gara White are £350 options, while Scorpione Black and Record Grey each add £500 to the invoice.
