Overview
The 2024 Abarth 500e Scorpionissima has a WLTP range of 253km from a 42kWh battery, with 37.3kWh usable. It's a small four-seat electric hatchback with a single motor driving the front wheels, priced at $60,500 RRP, which is the recommended retail price before on-road costs. DC fast charging peaks at 85kW, and the boot holds 185 litres with the seats up. We don't have a braked towing figure for it yet, and it has no ANCAP rating on record, so it suits someone after a compact city EV who can live with a small boot.
