Abarth F595 Review - Is It Worth Your Money!?

The F595 is abarths latest addition to its range. So what is the new Abarth F595? The F595 runs the Abarth F.4 engine from the formula italia race car however when you strip back the marketing this engine is the 1.4 t jet found in the road car. The new abarth F595 is designed and tailored to the younger driver wanting the sporty feel but without the costs of insurance premiums. The Abarth F595 runs 165BHP same as the turismo. The car starts from £20300 and things such as sabelt seats, Koni FSD dampers are all found in the new Abarth F595. What do you think of the new abarth F595?

Abarth 595 = similes per mile. That is a great line Stef 😀 you certainly gave it some stick!!
As a very gentle / reserved 64 year old driver myself, I’ve just got my smiles back by buying an automatic Toyota Aygo, it’s only a three pot one litre, but I’m having great fun using the paddle shifts!! 😂🤦

The 2016 facelift made sense because it made the car look more aggressive and more modern, and added a better infotainment system. But the facelift should have only carried on for like 3 years before bringing out a completely new platform.
They should have made something like a mild hybrid 1.5 3 cylinder, a 6speed gearbox, some more tech like cruise control, fix the awkward seating position, a properly dampened suspension

I love the Abarth - however, the exhaust configuration - why? Looked awesome on previous gen.

[rfmrs]

Thanks for the video, love the office too. Surprised doesn’t have more views. Good luck with the channel!

[rlmross]

I know the video is about a "stock" Abarth and stock Abarths in general over the years having not changed, but honestly, its so easy and cheap to get an Abarth to the point that you want it at, whether its more performance your wanting or just a looks overhaul. (I know Stef will know this, but others who are considering an Abarth at this point should know it to)

Very honest and detailed review, professionally delivered and refreshing. Cheers

[eckartmusic]

ABARTH!!! I agree with you, still, always happy to see Abarth on the channel.

[jeremyrigden]

Great to see you in an Abarth, you nailed it, same old same old, why would you get one of these when you could get a year old Comp, I do miss Bippy. though even if it was the right time. All the best Jerry

[tavners]

Poor abarth being killed. Agree exhaust looks a mess. Original was good looking! Will be keeping my 70 145 for ages yet...

[Steve-fnhs]

Hopefully they go out with a bang. I own a 2017 comp and I love it. Yet these special editions are just the same car (or less) with a few stickers on. I don't know why anyone would buy a 160bhp 'special edition' ahead of a comp?

Hopefully they release a 200-220bhp version with a few new gadgets (limited slip dif/6 speed etc). Also a more aggressive body shape.

You look at the evolution of the Fiesta STs etc and Abarth really haven't kept up. I've owned both. The Abarth is definitely a better laugh. Yet the STs are a far better hot hatch. I'm not a Ford fan boy. I've just owned both and still love the comp I currently own😂

[GeordsYouTube]

Short answer yes, long answer hellll yesss

[majnuntech]

I just got this car. Where is than vacuum solenoid you mentioned? I do find it more tame than pre 2020 abarths I have driven.

Also I find the car quite nervous on the straits. I think it's got a wrong alignment out of the factory. Or is it because of the camber of the wheels?

[behindtheseeyesiseewhatyou]

Being from the USA… if I had the option to Buy one New… I’d jump, no… fly to get one!

[toobasaurus]

I've been thinking about this car for a while. It needs a rear view camera and a better tech display in line with most modern cars.
It looks fun to drive, and it's one of ghe few cars that will actually fit in my small garage.

[AR-zrom]

I really hope the electric version comes as a biposto spec. That would be a game changer

[gavinivers]

Sadly Fiat and Abarth seem to be lost at the moment.
After all, what new Fiat is there?
Even Alfa Romeo seems lost.
The parent group needs to get their act together

[joaopedroafonsocerqueira]

Stef the fiat 500, is on sale since Dev.2007 inn Italy. So the platform as Fiat 500 15years . Also the Fiat 500 Abarth, was doing asfalt Rallie demoig as car zero since 2008. So for the engineers and pilots this is an almost 14 years old car. my Mito QV 2012 with sabelts feels ancient, I imagine this Abarths, being sold as new, I don't see the market...go and get one second hand, like a Pista from 2019.

[bobmizen]

Great video Stef, unfortunately I'm not struck on the lower bulgey looks from the side, particularly the front, and a little at the rear. I would call it, not trying to be offensive, but a Baby Baluga. The rest sems ok though. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts. Regards, Bob M. South Wales

[DarkCrusader]

As you rightly said Stef, nothing new in the Abarth . At least however they haven’t killed the line yet for now as they could have cut it short after so many millions of car sales, but then why kill a top seller?

I agree 💯 they should definitely give this little Abarth one last Hurrah before going Leccy!
Perhaps Abarth could do like what they did when the Punto Mk2 HGT came out and give us a 1.8ltr version? Yes that would bring emissions issues but could you imagine if some one in Turin said “You know what? F**k it! Let’s make this car really ROAR, and made like 200 limited editions . I’d love to see that happen! Plus I’m sure the tech is out there to limit the emissions, if they can do it for Audi and Mercs then…???

Sadly I don’t think Fiat/Abarth will, in essence when the last iteration of this cult classic comes along it will be another pretty ‘variant’…but we can only hope right? 😉😎🤞🏾
