Abarth has overhauled its electric 600e range for the 2026 model year, introducing two new trim levels — Turismo and Competizione — as it sharpens the positioning of its battery-electric performance offering.
The revised line-up replaces the previous standard Abarth 600e and the limited-run Scorpionissima edition. Alongside the smaller Abarth 500e, the 600e represents the brand’s attempt to inject performance character into the compact electric crossover segment, building on the Fiat 600 platform.
The new range-topper, the Abarth 600e Competizione, is priced from £37,995 in the UK and is powered by a 207 kW electric motor. Abarth said the model was developed “in collaboration with Stellantis Motorsport” and is intended to deliver what it calls the most track-focused expression of the brand’s electric strategy.
The Competizione accelerates from 0 to 62 mph (100 km/h) in about 5.9 seconds and has an electronically limited top speed of 200 km/h (124 mph). The powertrain is based on a familiar high-performance electric setup used across the Stellantis portfolio, including models such as the Alfa Romeo Junior Veloce, Peugeot e-208 GTi and Opel Mokka GSE.
Abarth has paired the higher output with a suite of performance-oriented hardware. The Competizione features a Torsen limited-slip differential, upgraded braking systems with Alcon front vented discs and monoblock calipers, as well as motorsport-inspired components designed to withstand high dynamic loads. Sabelt sports seats and Michelin tyres derived from Formula E technology are intended to improve grip, braking stability and driver feedback.
Visually, the Competizione is distinguished by a two-tone exterior combining an orange body with a black roof, exclusive side graphics and an Alcantara-trimmed interior. The model is built on Stellantis’ Perfo eCMP electric platform, which Abarth says draws on motorsport expertise to support higher performance demands.
Below it, the Abarth 600e Turismo becomes the new entry point to the range, priced from £33,995. The Turismo produces 175 kW and is positioned as a more everyday-oriented performance model, trading a small amount of outright acceleration for greater accessibility and comfort. Abarth said the entry price remains unchanged following earlier price cuts announced in January.
“With these two trims, we are offering complementary interpretations of Abarth’s character,” the company said. “Together, the new 600e models represent the next milestone in Abarth’s evolution, honouring Carlo Abarth’s heritage while projecting the electric future of the Scorpion brand.”
