Abarth 595 Hatchback Turismo 1.4 Tjet 165hp 3d Owner Review

Everything about owning a small sporty hatchback should be fun and the Abarth 595 is just that!,it`s small light and nimble with an exhaust that sounds fantastic, has a great turn of speed, more like a hot hatch of the 1980s but with modern day safety standards, the Turismo version is well enough equipped to enjoy as a daily driver, it will seat four, just! has a boot that will carry far more than first glance would have you would think, rear seats folded it`s surprising just what will fit in!, over the first 4k miles of ownership there have been no reliability issues and the economy is averaging out at 38 mpg with mostly town and fast country road use, on a longer journey if you can resist having your foot planted to the floor you will easily see 45 mpg, there are far better finished small hatches and most certainly more roomy ones but the extra size and weight that brings has ruined most hot hatches of today, the Abarth remains one of the few small drivers cars available in 2017.there will always be those who say "it`s only a Fiat 500" and "you bought a girls car" but who cares when it`s so much fun..
