The more horsepower, the more a car is taxed. Hence, low horsepower cars are the bigger sellers in Italy.

For the gente comune seeking a more performance oriented version of the 500, they should consider the Abarth tuned Fiat 500.

Better put some more horses under the hood. Looks like another “me to” car but I need to see it in person and come on, only 34 miles to the gallon? I’ve got 110hp on my Honda Goldwing and get better than that.
