Key Highlights

  • The introduction of the Abarth Classiche 1300 OT enriches the sports car lineup.

  • Limited production with only five units planned.

  • Absence of a full-size mockup, but enthusiasts can explore a one-third-scale model.

  • Purchase inquiries can be made through Stellantis' Heritage website.

Stellantis continues the legacy of the Alfa Romeo 4C by introducing the Abarth Classiche 1300 OT, which pays tribute to the 1960s Fiat Abarth OT 1300 racer. This car has been developed by Stellantis' heritage department as part of the Reloaded by Creators program.

The new model takes inspiration from the 1000 SP and incorporates unique design elements such as unconventional headlight styling without binnacles. It also includes signature features like the rear "Abarth" branding, roof-mounted intake, and louvered rear window.

The engine has been positioned slightly forward, adopting the 1.7-liter turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine from the 4C. This configuration maintains the original output of 237 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. Paired with a dual-clutch six-speed gearbox, it enables the car to achieve a top speed of 257 km/h.

Abarth has not provided specific details regarding the curb weight, but highlights the extensive use of carbon fiber throughout the body, resulting in a considerable reduction in weight compared to the standard 4C. Furthermore, improvements in suspension tuning and powertrain are anticipated, promising a distinct driving experience from the 4C model.
