500. The Fiat 500 Abarth Essesse is a front wheel drive road car, with the motor placed in the front, and a 3 door hatchback bodyshell. It is powered by a turbocharged engine of 1.4 litre capacity. This unit features double overhead camshaft valve gear, 4 cylinder layout, and 4 valves per cylinder.
Presented in superb restored condition, this Fiat-Abarth 595 SS (Esseesse) is an exceptionally rare and exciting hot hatch – believed to be one of only seven such examples built by the factory in 1970. The pinnacle of the Fiat 500-based conversions at the time, the ‘Sprint Speciale’ is powered by a big-bore cylinder block 594cc engine
As with any 500 top-cabriolet, the 500C Abarth Essesse featured a power-retractable fabric roof folded down behind the rear seats, together with that spoiler.
