Italian racing team Romeo Ferraris has shown off the most extreme version of the Fiat 500 Abarth yet.
The Romeo Ferraris 500 keeps the base car’s 1.4-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine, but it has been tuned to produce more than 355bhp.

The competition model also has a carbonfibre body, which helps give it a weight of 970kg. It rides on 17-inch OZ alloys with special racing Dunlop tyres.
The car will compete in this weekend’s 6 Hours of Vallelunga race in Italy and will be driven by Michela Cerruti and Mario Ferraris.
Fiat produces its own 500 Abarth racer, which produces 190bhp from the same 1.4-litre engine. It also has a weight of 970kg, and you can see it on video here.
