This was the subject of an article a few weeks ago: Abarth 500 electric: should you buy it in the face of the competition? It emerged that despite the qualities of the new Italian car, its price was above the competition.
In fact, the electric Abarth 500, which has been available for order for about 6 months, is a full-option version called Scorpionissima, proposed at 43 000 €. 46,000 for the sedan version and €46,000 for the convertible version. This is the same launch strategy as the electric 500 with the all-option La Prima version.
Good news, the electric Abarth 500 range becomes more affordable with the launch of two new versions: Pack and Turismo.
The bad news is that the press release is incomplete in terms of options and pricing. All we know is that the Abarth 500 electric Pack will be available from €36,900 excluding ecological bonus. It's still 10,000 € more than the internal combustion version (excluding the environmental bonus), but that puts it just below a certain MINI Cooper SE 184 hp, which is offered at 37,400 €...
Orders will be opened at the concession Abarth from May 2023. In the meantime we have asked the brand for more information on prices and options...

I just came back from the presentation of the Abarth 500e Scorpionissima. I have to admit that it is pretty and that the interior is luxurious.
The sound generator fake noise is not bad at all.
Uh for the regulation artificial noise at very low speed, they replaced the Amacord notes of the Fiat 500e with what? Planet Funk (suggestion) ?
With a racing diesel, it would be so much better! Perhaps in a few years' time, when rare metals are no longer accessible and punitive ecology is rejected by the enlightened masses.
