2011 Los Angeles: 2012 Fiat 500 Abarth (U.S.-spec)


After teasing earlier this month, Fiat has presented the U.S.-spec 2012 500 Abarth at the Los Angeles Auto Show today.

According to the Italian automaker, the 500 Abarth features an aerodynamics body kit, a performance-tuned exhaust system, a tuned suspension and brakes, along with 16-inch wheels.

Power will come from a new 1.4-liter MultiAir Turbo 4-cylinder engine with 160 hp and 230 Nm of torque - slightly more than the euro-spec's 140 hp and 206 Nm of torque.

The 2012 Fiat 500 Abarth is expected to hit the U.S. dealerships early in 2012.
