Abarth 500 Rally R3T
Abarth introduced its latest racing gem at the 51st Sanremo Rally.
The Abarth 500 R3T lent its name to a promotional rally trophy in 2010, which joined the two track events (European and Italian) with the Abarth 500 Assetto Corse.
For Abarth, this marks a return to promotional trophy events, a niche it has made its own for more than thirty years. Since 1977, to be precise, when the first ever Autobianchi A112 Abarth Championship was held, followed by the Fiat Uno, Uno Turbo, Cinquecento, Seicento, Punto Kit and Super 1600, Stilo and Panda Kit trofei.
The Abarth 500 rally version is type-approved for Group R3T, the category for turbocharged cars up to 1600 cm³ in capacity. This class is the future of the specialism because it represents a good compromise between the cost and performance of the cars. Ideal for private drivers and young people who want to show their worth in a true racing car, capable of outstanding performance by any standard.

A racing gem
Great care has been taken to ensure that the suspension can be adjusted to obtain a ride suited to each driver’s individual driving style. The racing shock absorbers are adjustable, with coaxial spring and ring nut to alter the ground clearance plus specific shims to adjust the caster and camber angles.
The same care has also been taken over the details, beginning with a livery that is decidedly in keeping with tradition, complemented by a lovingly crafted interior and instruments.
