Abarth has announced the introduction of two new models based on the Fiat 500.

Both of the new models, named the 595 Turismo and the 595 Competizione, will be fitted with the same 160bhp 1.4-litre turbocharged petrol engine and Abarth's MTA (Manual Transmission Automated) semi-automatic gearbox.

The original Abarth 500 will still be produced, but will feature a lower price tag and more standard equipment.

Details of the standard equipment fitted to all three models can be seen below.

Prices for the Abarth 500 now start from £13,975, while the 595 Turismo and 595 Competizione are priced at £17,725 and £18,725, respectively.
