Powered by a 180 HP 1.4, 16v engine that develops 270 Nm of torque at only 3,000 rpm, the Abarth Grande Punto "SuperSport" reaches a top speed of 215 km/h and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 7.5 seconds. This superb performance confirms the car's true racing spirit.
Further contributions to performance come from the modified suspension (one of the features of the "SS" kit), which includes new, more rigid and lower springs, 215/40 R18 tyres and specially designed 7.5 J X 18 alloy wheels. Thanks to this new kit the car has gained a far sportier setup and a roll centre some 20 mm lower. On top of this, the braking system has been equipped with perforated discs front and rear and performance brake pads at the front.
Inside, the Abarth Grande Punto "SuperSport" boasts "Abarth Corsa by Sabelt" leather seats (homologated and lightened in keeping with the car's racing spirit) and an Abarth Blue&MeTM MAP satellite navigation unit with a telemetric function developed in conjunction with Magneti Marelli. In all there are four functions that make this innovative device stand out. The first function, called "monitoring", displays the main acquired in-car parameters (engine rpm, vehicle speed, gear engaged) that are transferred from the Blue&MeTM to the PND (Portable Navigation Device) via Bluetooth. The second function, "Track", accessible if the driver is on one of the circuits present in the device's SD memory, displays a set of additional information such as the car's position on the track (ascertained by GPS) and lap time. The third function, "configuration", makes it possible to store telemetric data for a track and associate it with a personalised session (identified by the driver's name, circuit, date). The information recorded may be retrieved easily and also analysed at a later stage using the fourth "analysis" function.
