Abarth 695 Tributo 131 Rally

A new special edition Abarth 695 pays homage to the classic Fiat 131 Abarth Rally. Some 40 years after the final official race of the 131 Rally saloon, the new Abarth 695 Tributo 131 Rally special series picks up on stylistic themes seen in the 131 Rally that took three World Constructors’ Championships (1977, 1978 and 1980), with drivers such as Markku Alén and Walter Röhrl. Specific references to its classic predecessor include a new duo-tone triple-layer Blue Rally colour scheme with roof and window frames in Scorpion Black.

Singlecolour Blue Rally or Record Grey versions are also available. The Abarth 695 Tributo 131 Rally contains surprise ‘Easter eggs’ like silhouettes of the 131 Rally on the doors, Alcantara dashboard and headrests. The cabin features new Sabelt fabric seats with blue inserts and stitching. Mechanically, the 695 Tributo 131 Rally has a 180hp engine, Koni FSD dampers all round, aluminium Brembo callipers, black diamond-cut 17-inch alloy wheels, Record Monza Sovrapposto exhaust and 12-way adjustable rear spoiler.

The 695 Tributo 131 Rally will cost £32,325 when it arrives in the UK later this summer. Production is limited to 695 units worldwide.
