'Proud Mary' legend Tina Turner says celebrating her 80th birthday feels like "a second chance at life" after years of health woes.
To celebrate this special birthday and as a tribute to its history, the Scorpion is launching the new Abarth 695 75° Anniversario edition, available in only 1,368 units to pay homage to its well-known 1.4 T-Jet engine, with a symbolic reference to the engine’s capacity: 1.368cc. The engine is supercharged with a Garrett GT 1446 turbocharger, delivering 180 HP of power and a torque of 250 Nm at 3,000 rpm. The maximum speed is 225 km/h, and it accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 6.7 seconds. The exterior immediately catches the eye. For the first time ever, a scorpion covers the entire roof and pops out against the total black livery thanks to the contrast with its golden body. Inside, the designers created an exclusive and charming ambience, as exemplified by the high-quality black Alcantara dashboard and the new Sabelt specific carbon seats.
