    The reborn Fiat 500 has enjoyed stellar success. Already having spawned a number of high-performance and special editions, the car’s hot sales have driven yet another special model – the Abarth SS, or as the Italians would say it, ‘esseesse’.She’s small but with some serious grit, as you can see in these picture of the Fiat 500 Abarth SS, which can be recognised by the twin exhausts.

    Long awaited and finally revealed, the new Abarth SS looks strikingly like its sister car, the Grande Punto Abarth SS, revealed in concept form by Fiat’s Scorpion label late last year. Though official details will await the car’s unveiling in Paris next month, some basic outlines of what to expect are known. Expect the 500 SS to feature a similar version of the engine in the Grande Punto Abarth SS, rated at 180hp (134kW) thanks to an uprated boost program for the 1.4L turbocharged engine at its heart.

    That’s an improvement of 25hp (18kW) over the standard 155hp (116kW) engine in the Grande Punto Abarth, and would be a marked upgrade over even the 500 Abarth Opening Edition, which is rated at 160hp (119kW) engine, an upgrade of 25hp (18kW) over the standard Abarth 500’s 135hp (100kW). The Opening Edition Abarth will sprint from 0 to 100km/h (62mph) in just 7.4 seconds and reach a top speed of 211km/h (131mph), while the standard model takes 7.9 seconds for the same sprint and tops out at 205km/h (127mph). The SS should best both by as much as another half-second, getting the 500 under the seven-second mark.

    Other upgrades that will form the SS’s performance package include larger wheels, stiffer springs and improved dampers, plus a torque control transfer (TTC) traction control system like that found in other Fiat Group vehicles.

    The modifications will also give the 500 a new base and brakes to give it more determination in competing with the rest. The “Mini-killer” will make its debut at the Paris Motor Show and will commercialised in November. If you want something new and zippy, this could be it.
