The Fiat Group's never-ending streak of special edition models continues with the new Abarth Punto Scorpione that will receive its world premiere alongside the 595 specials at the upcoming 2011 Bologna Motor Show in the beginning of December.The Abarth Punto Scorpione is based on the esseesse model and is powered by the same 180HP 1.4-liter turbocharged MultiAir engine. It accelerates from 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) in 7.5 seconds and its top speed is 216 km/h (134 mph).
However, it comes with several unique cosmetic touches. These include the special exterior paint job with a two-tone Nero Scorpione livery enhanced by special matte black paintwork for the bonnet and roof that encompass glossy black stripes. The Italian hot hatch also gets black alloy wheels and yellow Brembo brake calipers.
Inside, Abart fitted the Punto Scorpione with a set of bucket seats partially trimmed in Alcantara and featuring red and yellow stitching from Sabelt, leather steering wheel, gearbox and instrument panel cover, plus aluminium kick plate, sport pedals and accent trim.
The Italian automaker has also developed a special "Abarth Nitro" winter kit for those who like skiing and which includes 17-inch alloys with winter tires, a snowboard rack with magnetic fastening and a snowboard from the "Nitro powered by Abarth" lineup.
The company said that production of the Abarth Punto Scorpione will be strictly limited to 99 units.
