Detailed analysis of the Abarth 695 Esseesse 1.4 T-JET 132 kW (180 CV) · 179 CV (2021-2022)
General description
The Abarth 695 Esseesse is the ultimate expression of the scorpion, a small projectile that condenses the brand's racing heritage into a radical, urban format. It's not just a car; it's a statement of intent, a toy for adults that seeks to awaken pure emotions and a visceral connection with the asphalt. It represents the culmination of the 595 saga, pushing the 'small but mighty' concept to its limits with an exclusivity and character that make it one of a kind.
Driving experience
Driving the 695 Esseesse is an addictive and multisensory experience. The roar of the Akrapovič titanium exhaust floods the cabin and the surroundings, a throaty sound that incites you to squeeze every one of the 5 gears. The acceleration is blistering, pinning you to the seat with a force unexpected for its size, thanks to its 180 HP and feather-light weight. Its short wheelbase and the firmness of the Koni FSD suspension convey a devilish agility, a go-kart feeling that makes you feel every inch of the road. It's a car that demands attention and rewards you with a dose of pure adrenaline, a smile machine that turns every journey into a rally stage.
Design and aesthetics
Visually, the 695 Esseesse is a spectacle of contained aggression. Starting from the iconic silhouette of the Fiat 500, Abarth dresses it for war with a body kit that widens its figure and optimizes aerodynamics. Highlights include the lighter aluminum hood and the imposing adjustable rear wing 'Spoiler ad Assetto Variabile,' a direct nod to racing. The white details on the 17-inch wheels, mirror caps, and side decals create an unmistakable and challenging image. Every angle screams performance, from the generous air intakes to the dual exhaust outlets.
Technology and features
The technology in the 695 Esseesse is at the service of performance, not comfort. The heart is the 1.4 T-JET engine with a Garrett turbo, an engineering gem that delivers power explosively. The chassis benefits from Koni FSD shock absorbers on both axles, which adapt to offer a compromise between agility and a minimum of composure. Braking is guaranteed by a powerful Brembo system with 4-piston calipers on the front axle. Inside, the Uconnect infotainment system with a 7-inch screen and Abarth telemetry allows you to monitor your performance, but the real technology is what you feel through the steering wheel and pedals, pure and unfiltered.
Competition
Finding a direct rival for the Abarth 695 Esseesse is a complex task due to its uniqueness and almost artisanal approach. In terms of a small, powerful 'hot hatch' concept, one might think of the Ford Fiesta ST or the Hyundai i20 N, both of which are more modern, practical, and efficient. However, neither offers the character, sound, and retro, visceral experience of the Abarth. The MINI John Cooper Works comes close in terms of premium positioning and customization, but with a more refined and less radical approach. The Abarth plays in its own league, that of pure emotions over practicality or lap times.
Conclusion
The Abarth 695 Esseesse is not a car you buy with your head, but with your heart. It's expensive, it's small, it's uncomfortable, and its fuel consumption can be high if pushed. But all of that is forgotten the moment you turn the key and its engine comes to life. It's a sensation machine, an antidote to modern automotive boredom. For those seeking maximum fun in the smallest possible package and who value character and exclusivity above all else, this little scorpion is, simply, unbeatable. An automotive gem that exudes Italian passion from every pore.
