The Abarth 500e is being reviewed in a long-term test, with some outlets finding it to be fun, despite being expensive and sometimes annoying. The car is being compared to other vehicles, such as the Renault 5 E-Tech and the Fiat 500e, and some reviewers have strong emotional reactions to it. The Abarth 500e is part of a line that includes the Abarth 695, which is being phased out, and is available in various markets, including Australia.
