All-new Abarth 595 Trofeo on sale now, priced from £17,290

Abarth has unveiled pricing and specification details for the all-new 595 Trofeo, which goes on sale in the UK this month.

Essentially a special-edition version of the racy 595 Pista unveiled earlier this year, the Trofeo is inspired by last year’s exclusive 595 Trofeo Edition, which was limited to just 250 examples in the UK.

Available as both a hatchback and a convertible, the Trofeo is powered by the same 158bhp 1.4-litre turbo engine as the rest of the 595 range, with a 0-62mph time of 7.3 seconds and a 134mph top speed.

Customers can order it in a choice of five different colours - Abarth Red, Gara White, Campovolo Grey, Record Grey and Scorpione Black - with contrasting wing mirrors and front air dams.

Like the Pista, it also gets upgraded drilled disc brakes, a Koni rear suspension setup, racier quad tailpipes and a rear diffuser, while the 17-inch Formula Alloy wheels complete the look.

Inside, the 595 Trofeo benefits from an upgraded seven-inch Uconnect infotainment system with integrated Abarth race telemetry and the ability to record and analyse lap times.

Gerry Southerington, Abarth UK’s brand manager, said: “The extra standard equipment means it’s excellent value for money, while the technology such as the telemetry, makes it an ideal choice for customers who want to test their car’s performance on a racetrack.”

Available to order now, the Abarth 595 Trofeo is priced from £17,290 for the hatchback version, while the cabriolet starts from £19,290.
