Abarth: Now the Scorpion is also a Stromer 🎥
FAST FLASHER Abarth is ushering in a new era with the presentation of the all-electric 500e. The newcomer enriches - now almost without noise and emissions - the range in Europe and Brazil.
The new, all-electric Abarth 500e is said to be exciting in city traffic, but also torquey and very agile when driving out of town. In short, the manufacturer even talks about "more Abarth than ever. Thanks to optimized weight distribution, more powerful torque, a longer wheelbase and increased track widths, the E-Abarth is said to perform better than the gasoline-powered model in a direct comparison.
Only seven seconds to 100 km/h.
The 500e with the scorpion offers better responsiveness than an Abarth 695, for example, achieving 50 percent better acceleration from 20 to 40 km/h compared with its gasoline-powered counterpart. The Abarth 500e also responds more quickly on corner entry and comes out of corners faster. With its 42-kWh battery and 113-kW electric motor (155 hp), the new 500e makes it from 0 to 100 km/h from a standstill in just seven seconds.
Track mode for more sportiness
Three driving modes are available: Turismo, Scorpion Street and Scorpion Track. They give customers the freedom to further enhance the sporty setup and bring the vehicle's power to the road in any situation. With a maximum of 100 kW, Turismo mode favors smoother acceleration and more efficient fuel consumption.
Scorpion Street mode maximizes peak power and regenerative braking. One-pedal driving is possible in both modes. Finally, Scorpion Track mode is for those looking for even more sportiness.
Sufficient energy in five minutes
To minimize charging time, the Abarth 500e is equipped with an 85-kW fast charging system. This charges a sufficient energy reserve for the average daily requirement of around 40 kilometers in less than five minutes. To charge the car conveniently at home, an Easy Wallbox can be installed, which is simply placed on the wall near a power outlet.
