Since Fiat doesn’t quite seem to have gotten things right with the marketing part of the 500 introduction in the US (the company claims that this is the reason behind the less than impressive sales), the automaker wants to make sure that the Abarth version of the car gets the attention it deserves.
Thus, Fiat has released a new video teaser for the 500 Abarth, introducing the vehicles as a mean little machine. Everything in the 23-second spot screams “mean” in your face, starting from the dark color, through the the lines such as “Does this country need another outcast”, to the final “bad boy” designation used for the car.
