This Italeri 1/12 scale kit captures both the roadgoing Fiat Abarth 695SS and its Assetto Corsa competition form, offering a rewarding build for enthusiasts of classic small cars. The model reflects the compact design of the Fiat "Nuova 500", a staple of Italian motoring from 1957 to 1975.
Abarth upgraded the tiny 689 cm3 engine to create a peppy drive, with the 695SS commonly reaching speeds up to 140 km/h in period trim. The Assetto Corsa package focused further on track performance, and the kit communicates that history through faithful scale details.
Produced from updated moulds, the kit offers practical realism such as an openable bonnet and boot, steerable wheels and working suspension. Options to show doors and roof open make display flexible, while rubber tyres and chrome/photoetched parts improve authenticity.
