The long-awaited Abarth 500 Esseesse has finally arrived.And it’s surprisingly good: surprisingly because we’re not big fans of the stock Fiat 500.But as the importer stresses, the 500 Esseesse is very different to the car that it’s based on.The 1.4-litre turbo four is wicked up to 118kW/230Nm, and is mated to a five-speed manual. It’s deceptively fast, with a bucketload of cornering grip.It’s just a pity that the ride is too firm for our Australian roads.
