The 2019 Geneva International Motor Show in Switzerland will be open on March 7 through 17, and carmaker Abarth will attend it with a modern re-imagination of its Abarth 595 esseesse car dating back to the 1960s.
The anniversary show car wears an elegant grey paintjob and comes adorned with numerous Abarth logos both outside and inside. It still uses the old 1.4-liter engine capable of 180 hp (134 kW) at most, linked to a five-speed manual transmission and an Akrapovic sports exhaust system, which opens into four carbon-fiber tips.
The exclusive Abarth 595 esseesse also sports Brembo performance brakes and comes suspended by means of the Koni Frequency Selective Damping System.
The interior of the vehicle features a leather/Alcantara combo upholstery with occasional carbon parts here and there (most notable examples being the seat backrests and the front fascia). There are tuner logos in multiple places, a digital instrument panel, a multimedia system with Apple CarPlay / Android Auto connectivity, aluminum pedal pads, and other modern features like this.
