Increased performance thanks to improvements to the
power unit and weight reduction are the calling card of the new Abarth 695
Assetto Corse Evoluzione, which will be joining the Abarth 695 Assetto Corse
and Abarth 500 Assetto Corse cars in Italian and European championships.
Key to the success of these five years of
single-make Trofei, the Assetto Corse has proved capable of evolution,
improving performance with extremely high safety standards. The new car represents
the latest in an endless series of challenges overcome by Abarth engineers and
exemplifies the perfect balance of the Abarth formula: more power and less
weight equals more performance.
The boosted engine, passing from 200 to 215 HP, and
reduced weight of 920 kg, a 20 kg reduction relative to the previous version,
ensure excellent, unprecedented performance. The modifications made concern
chassis, power unit and electrical system.
In detail, the 695 Assetto Corse Evoluzione will be
equipped with steel front suspension arms that can be dismantled, 1.4 T-Jet
engine with different configuration (specific management software and timing)
and cooling and intercooler layout, new electrical architecture with control
units relocated to the inside of the passenger compartment and windscreen with
thermal defroster.
On the inside, the Abarth 695 Assetto Corse
Evoluzione contains all of the safety equipment required by FIA regulations.
The Abarth 695 Assetto Corse Evoluzione is not only a car, but also a genuine
upgrade kit for current 695 Assetto Corse cars.
