Looks like the Italians are back. And that makes me a very happy boy indeed...! Same goes for the French, they also seem to have found their footing and that is a wonderful thing.
Awesome video. Ever since I watched Hoonigan's video where they use their Fiat 124 Abarth to compete in hillclimb events, I've became more interested about the car and started to watch testing videos. This is one of them. That anti-lag sound is crazy...
Oh wow - simply stunning. The car looks great with that hard top roof instead of the fabric hood - and without the silly red bits of trim. I really hope the hard top is sold for this model - because this will be my next car if it is.
dio mio!!!!! non ho la pelle d'oca; è l'oca che ha la pelle d'umano! è tanto aggressivo il sound, poi è composta di brutto, è un kart, non vedo l'ora di vederla al suo primo rally! :)
+Christone 94 Si è veramente bella e divertente da vedere, speriamo che anche i tempi siano di qualità...per ora ha fatto l'apripista al Rally di Roma Capitale ed ha partecipato a qualche evento, speriamo di vederla al via di qualche rally al più presto
Luca Rally madoooooo, sarà una figata pazzesca con la sua livrea che la sorella maggiore utillizzava ai tempi! è bello che portano il passato al futuro! :)
If they end up putting that 1.8L Alfa engine in some kind of Abarth Homologation Special I will be forced to transition from a struggling college student to a struggling sport car owner within 2 years.
Qualcosa inizia a muoversi finalmente....e la macchina va! Speriamo vada per il meglio ma soprattutto si rinizi a correre nel wrc, magari con la nuova Punto!
You know...the Mazdaspeed MX-5 is waaay overdue. You never know. For whatever reason though, I see them taking the 1.5L and dressing it up with a turbo instead of using the CX-9 power plant. That'll probably be saved for the 3 or 6 respectively.
Bellissima, ma mi chiedo, fiat vuole veramente tornare nei rally? secondo, in un wrc dominato da anni dalle 4WD un trazione posteriore come questa quante possibilità può avere?
You have no idea from cars... Fiat in our days are very reliable cars. It's not a Mazda. Only the platform has been made from the two companies. It has the multiair engine with 140 & 170 PS
Hi, Gotta say love your Videos big fan! Anyway, I make compilation videos where I take clips from other videos add some information and then play music over them. I was just wondering if I could have your permission to use 20 seconds max of this video. Obviously, the link will be in the description and all credit will be rewarded to you.
Sembra piuttosto divertente da guidare con tutte quelle derapatine e speriamo vada anche forte nei tempi...ammetto mi sarebbe piaciuto di più vedere la MX5 preparata da Abarth, esteticamente non mi dice gran che la 124
Most of the specs have been shared in March, you have to look for the abarth media site and check the press release. Som details may have been changed frome the reveal to the shakedown, but most of the available data are there.
That engine sounded violent: explosions, growls and farts. Fiat Chrysler should adopt it. They should get rid of the crap engines they still use and just use the many awesome engine options they have.
I'm sure i'm better informed than you. Mazda has not enough money to develop a whole new MX5 by themself. so they made an agreement with Fiat (alfa Romeo) to develop and produce a new spider together. at the last moment Fiat decided it would not be an Alfa Romeo spider becuase it would be to much competition for the 4C which is much more expensive. from that point they decided to make a Fiat and Abarth Spider. That's also the reason the MX5 was released so much earlier. I have regular contact with Roberto Giolito so don't tell me how it's gone. and don't call me a fanboy anymore cause you insult me when you say stupid things like that.
Well i think Mazda has the biggest influence on this platform. It's very like the old MX5. But yeah, this Fiat looks fantastic and fun to drive. I want one!!
Creo que le falta.mas de.la.vieja receta Abarth un motor 2000 cc 280hp n/a habría Sido lindo para haber peleado con los s2000 Creo que ya estan copando la utilidad del 1400 tjet
Luca Rally No. It is actually a Miata. Not "similar". There are some very slight differences, but this is not a bespoke car from Fiat, it is literally a Miata, as in that's what the Fiat 124 is built on.
Looks like the Italians are back. And that makes me a very happy boy indeed...!
Same goes for the French, they also seem to have found their footing and that is a wonderful thing.
+firefighter5278 Finally....
Luca Rally All good things take time :-)
+firefighter5278 👍
firefighter5278 the italians are back. but with Japanese engineering
Which is a dream come true, if you ask me...!
That sound... 😍
I agree with you : )
sounds just like over 300+hp...damn dat was impressive
Awesome video. Ever since I watched Hoonigan's video where they use their Fiat 124 Abarth to compete in hillclimb events, I've became more interested about the car and started to watch testing videos. This is one of them. That anti-lag sound is crazy...
+hashrulsubzero Yess, the typicallt turbo anti-lag sound is always great to hear
Sounds like an angry jar of wasps armed with chainsaws.
Almost '70s sound, I like it.
+twincamspit Yes, very good sound
che bello vedere finalmente una vettura a marchio Fiat a trazione posteriore che può dire la sua nei rally
+Riding TusCanY Pienamente d'accordo, due fattori che mancavano nei rally moderni (sperando di poterla vedere al via di molti rally)
Oh wow - simply stunning. The car looks great with that hard top roof instead of the fabric hood - and without the silly red bits of trim. I really hope the hard top is sold for this model - because this will be my next car if it is.
+Gandalf606 Yes, with the hard top is much better
dio mio!!!!! non ho la pelle d'oca; è l'oca che ha la pelle d'umano! è tanto aggressivo il sound, poi è composta di brutto, è un kart, non vedo l'ora di vederla al suo primo rally! :)

Luca Rally madoooooo, sarà una figata pazzesca con la sua livrea che la sorella maggiore utillizzava ai tempi! è bello che portano il passato al futuro! :)
Handling is crazy. Looks like a go-kart. So much want.
+ExoticOption3 Yes, very good 👍
that is a god damn pretty Scandinavian flick
If they end up putting that 1.8L Alfa engine in some kind of Abarth Homologation Special I will be forced to transition from a struggling college student to a struggling sport car owner within 2 years.
You and me both, brotha.
This engine is not of Fiat?
+Allan Cordeiro Yes, it is, it's the 1.8 turbo Fiat or the 1750cc of Alfa Romeo
Actually it's a 1.7L - 1.742ccm
the engine is the same of Alfa 4c 1.750 240 hp, developed by Abarth for + 300hp called 1.8 Bi-albero
Looks amazing! Italian design is the best!
+BobsUp83 Yes, It looks very good, hope it will be fast too
In the hands of good rally drivers, it will.
I really like this car. I hope they make hard top version later.
+Sandro Stumpo Yes, it would be nice
This is the hard top version?!
di nuovo nei rally dai che si ritorna a vincere ovunque forza Italia.
+Marco Traetta Speriamo, purtroppo per forza di cose non potrà essere un auto estremamente vincente ma sicuramente è già un buon passo avanti !
Sounds like a proper rally car!
+CroatianCarGuy Yeah, I think so
+CroatianCarGuy Yeah, I think so
I think I prefer the MX-5's nose, but I like the Abarth's sound and performance!
+Ian Lewis I think the same...The Mazda nose looks angrier
Just goes to show how entertaining it is watching rwd cars race.
+Nick W Very entertaining, especially compared to FWD
qualche commento sulla qualità del mezzo sarebbe stato il massimo comunque bello vederla scodare tra le curve
+andrea berti Eh purtroppo questi test sono molto "top secret", non lasciavamo nemmeno filmare in assistenza
It looks stable and safe to drive in corners. Nice fun car
+Ndeshipanda Amupolo It looks fun and also quite fast in this kind of road
Qualcosa inizia a muoversi finalmente....e la macchina va! Speriamo vada per il meglio ma soprattutto si rinizi a correre nel wrc, magari con la nuova Punto!
Lo speriamo tutti, questo è già un buon inizio perlomeno
+Luca Rally Esatto, infatti va apprezzato! A questo punto spero di vederne una al Rallylegend di San Marino, chissà...
Lots of FUN!! :-)
I want to go drive the mountains now!
Awesome little car. Sounds great as well.
+Heine Pedersen Yes...little but with 300 HP, It's very funny to see
+Heine Pedersen Yes...little but with 300 HP, It's very funny to see
Is it me or does this set up Mazda to introduce the first skyactive performance car, a Miata with the new turbo out of the CX9?
You know...the Mazdaspeed MX-5 is waaay overdue. You never know. For whatever reason though, I see them taking the 1.5L and dressing it up with a turbo instead of using the CX-9 power plant. That'll probably be saved for the 3 or 6 respectively.
Turns out nope
Finalmente dopo 30 anni una Fiat bella
+Normal User Speriamo che segni l'inizio del ritorno dell'Italia nel mondo dei rally
This car is beautiful.
+Protoapex/Aventus Yes, it's very beautiful to see
The nose looks like a mix between a datsun 280z and a ford fiesta, the back instead is very similar to a maserati.
Looks sooo good imo
+Federico Gaggioli Yes, it looks good 👍
That’s some true skill right there
Yeah, it's a good driver and that rwd car is not easy to drive on this kind of road
Bellissima, ma mi chiedo, fiat vuole veramente tornare nei rally? secondo, in un wrc dominato da anni dalle 4WD un trazione posteriore come questa quante possibilità può avere?
Bello. Sei sempre in posizioni...Hard... come fai??? Complimenti.
Studio un po’ a casa prima di andare a vedere generalmente 😅💪🏼
Sploosh!
Crazienes level 9999 with Japaneese and italian engineering
+Mesut Taşdemir Yes....it's a crazy project this car....
vedendo le prove ha una buona base ma deve essere sviluppata se vuol competere contro altri marchi vincenti .bene forza Abarth
+Gianni637 gi6371 (Gi637) Si infatti hanno svolto parecchi altri test, vedremo fra poco al Montecarlo il confronto con la Porsche
Wonderful!
or should I say "mi piace bella bella"
+Carlos Choy Ahahah, exactly
Si vede che la guida Alex! Troppo Forte! 🤣
💪💪
Tremenda!
+Rodolfo Danese In effetti può non piacere...
Thanks man 👍
It'll even be build in Japan, by Mazda, or so I heard. Imagine that, the first Italian car that will not break down! It sounds bitching, I want one
Nope, the only thing built in Japan in this case is the bare platform. Anything else is made in Italy
come on man...if u dont know dont make a post.FIAT FOREVER!
You have no idea from cars... Fiat in our days are very reliable cars. It's not a Mazda. Only the platform has been made from the two companies. It has the multiair engine with 140 & 170 PS
No Italian cars break down. Italians build very good cars. ;o
I'm all about V8s, trucks and american Muscle cars, but this little Italian roadster has me completely taken. I might have to pick one up...
If I close my eyes, i could swear it's an old Group B rally car ripping around the track. Sounds just like it.
+AsTheSeasonsGray It's a great car and pretty fast on tarmac road
Engine . . . awesome growl! I love it.
+Hakeem R. Jelani Yeah, great sound !
The boost release sounds like a GAU-8
*anti lagg but you're right
+Maggio Man Ahahahahahah
DEAR SANTA
che sound, come borbotta madonna
what upgrades have been done to this beauty?
Thousand of upgrades, basically there’s nothing similar to the road legeal car…
Hi,

I was just wondering if I could have your permission to use 20 seconds max of this video. Obviously, the link will be in the description and all credit will be rewarded to you.
+Theferrariguy5 Yes, no problem
Gran bel telaio la MX5
+andrea durazzi Eh già...il telaio è il suo...
Is it tbi?
Where do you buy those hardtops?
+Marco Spelta As Marco said it's a rally version of the Fiat 124 Abarth so I think that you can't buy it
Hmm.. best Fiat sience Coupe? I hope so.
+Karol O. We hope so 👍
Sembra piuttosto divertente da guidare con tutte quelle derapatine e speriamo vada anche forte nei tempi...ammetto mi sarebbe piaciuto di più vedere la MX5 preparata da Abarth, esteticamente non mi dice gran che la 124
+Whi$per Anch'io preferisco la Mx-5 ma questa 124 l'ho rivalutata dopo i test, veramente bella da vedere
wait, so is this an actual car that will be for sale to the public?
+One Wear Reviews No, this car is the rally version of the Fiat 124 Abarth
man that sucks, would be crazy to have on the streets
+Rainer L Well...this is a racing version of the car that is actually sold.
+Rainer L Yes, it's great too i think
It has 1.8, right ?
+onur demir Yes, i think the same that is on the 4c and the Giulietta
+onur demir Yes, i think the same that is on the 4c and the Giulietta
Soltanto che lo hanno chiamato 1.8 bi-albero da + 300 hp ,se è quello del salone di Ginevra.
No.. 1.7 - 1.742ccm
ma questa che tipo di cambio avete installato ? non manuale di serie sentendola .
+Alberto marcon No assolutamente, dovrebbe essere un cambio sequenziale
Si si sente che entrano molto veloci . grazie . Cmq auto fantastica
格好いい‼
Wonder how much that hardtop is
+Daryl rabara-brokate I don't know but probably it'll be expensive because it's made for the rally car
i need this car!! :)
it looks like a little bit like Honda s2000 :D it is like a little baby of s2000 :D
Yess, with a turbo engine instead of the awesome V-TEC
Successor to the S2000?
Well...i don't think it could be as fast as the S2000 and it's only RWD
whats been done to this??!!!!
Get Off My Back same 1750 engine as in alfa romeo 4c, but modified to rally spec, around 300 hp with anti lag system.
Son le strade del rally di Sanremo, giusto?
+Nicola Wayne Folli Si si, questa era una parte di una prova fatta quest'anno
Di preciso dove eravate? :)
+Nicola Wayne Folli Poco sotto San Romolo dove c'è quel famoso bivio presente in diversi video
Allora avevo visto bene, son della zona!
si stanno ancora testando
Imagine that engine in an Abarth 500...
+Matt Jones Ahahahah, it would be interesting
I wonder how is this modifed to sound like this.
+ElvenMan It's heavy modified, everything has been changed from the road version
車頭的表情看起來呆呆的
Holy shit it sounds awesome :O what's the specs on this car?
Abarth haven't said a lot but it's a 1.8 turbo with ~300 horsepower and a sequential gearbox.
+Mikeado66 Yeah....unfortunatly we don't know a lot about this car
Most of the specs have been shared in March, you have to look for the abarth media site and check the press release. Som details may have been changed frome the reveal to the shakedown, but most of the available data are there.
perche giacomegia ?
That engine sounded violent: explosions, growls and farts. Fiat Chrysler should adopt it. They should get rid of the crap engines they still use and just use the many awesome engine options they have.
+Kevin Smith Very good sound, nice engine
bye bye Mazda MX5
bye bye the car that's under fiat skin because fiat can't make it themselves?
they have developed them together. without Fiat there would be no MX5 anymore because Mazda didn't have the money to make their own roadster
pietje bell you're crazy and uninformed, completely wrong. don't be a fanboy, fanboys ruin what car enthusiasm is about. have a nice one.
I'm sure i'm better informed than you.
Mazda has not enough money to develop a whole new MX5 by themself. so they made an agreement with Fiat (alfa Romeo) to develop and produce a new spider together.

But yeah, this Fiat looks fantastic and fun to drive. I want one!!
Il sound è fantastico, soprattutto l'anti lag!
L'auto non mi piace per niente però.
+Dyavel Sul sound sono d'accordo, a me non dispiace nemmeno la macchina però...
We need a hard top
+bigmarkdarula It would be awesome with an hard top
Boiaaa
+Monsterp8 Ahahaahhaah

That would be awesome…
Creo que le falta.mas de.la.vieja receta Abarth un motor 2000 cc 280hp n/a habría Sido lindo para haber peleado con los s2000
Creo que ya estan copando la utilidad del 1400 tjet
1750 of Alfa 4C or Giulietta
@1:12 That is the most awful sounding anti-lag .. sounds like the car is crapping itself in the corners.
Not the best design but it was time to release a nice RWD sport car
It's a Miata.
I know. But is something from nothing.
+Vernon Price Yes, they're very similar
Luca Rally No. It is actually a Miata. Not "similar". There are some very slight differences, but this is not a bespoke car from Fiat, it is literally a Miata, as in that's what the Fiat 124 is built on.
+Vernon Price Well....maybe the road version, this car has a true italian engine, nothing from Mazda....the entire project is followed by Abarth
Posso fare lo stesso con la mia 124 abarth ahahahah
MX5...
No, Fiat 124 Spider Abarth
***** si ;)
