The brand has just unveiled the Punto SuperSport, its latest limited edition. It is based on the regular-production Abarth Punto Evo which in turn is a cousin of the Fiat Punto hatchback.
Power is sent to the front wheels via a six-speed manual transmission. The limited-edition Punto hits 62 miles per hour from a stop in 7.5 seconds and goes on to a top speed of 134 miles per hour.
The Punto SuperSport inaugurates a gray and black paint job that was inspired by the SuperSport concept that Abarth displayed at the Frankfurt Motor Show last year. Customers who don't like gray can order the car in glossy black with flat black stripes on the hood and on the roof.
The car sits on edition-specific 17-inch alloy wheels and "SuperSport" badges are found on both quarter panels and on the trunk lid.
The SuperSport comes with a long list of standard features that includes automatic climate control, Blue & Me connectivity system and leather upholstery on the bucket seats and the steering wheel.
Only 199 examples of the Punto Supersport will be built for the European market. In Italy the car will carry a base price of €21,900, which converts to about $27,140.
