Stellantis Heritage and Club Italia present the Abarth 695 Club Italia, an exclusive series limited to just eight examples, reserved for members of the prestigious association, which cultivates a cult for the products of Italian creativity, with a particular focus on style, technique, design, craftsmanship and sporting values. The same mission of Heritage, the department that safeguards and enhances the immense historical heritage of the group’s Italian brands, through the precious collection on display at the Heritage Hub in Turin, participation in international events and a long series of exclusive services, including certifications of Authenticity and Origin, complete restorations and the creation of unique examples of the “Reloaded by Creators” programme, which restores the classic cars of the Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Lancia and Abarth brands to their original beauty and creates collectors’ cars in one-off or small series.
The eight Abarth 695 Club Italia cars are also part of Stellantis Heritage’s “Reloaded by Creators” programme, but with a substantial difference: they are the result of the transformation of new cars, whose production has ended, into unique pieces to be collected with pride, thanks to the experts at Officine Classiche. In addition, Alessandro Ravera, Stellantis Heritage’s Special Vehicles Manager, emphasises that, in the development of the new special edition, a great deal of harmony was established with Club Italia, creating together a car immediately identifiable with the Club’s style, starting with the livery, suggested by the graphic sketches created by Club Italia president Stefano Macaluso.
“When passion, culture and skills meet, creations are born that are able to challenge time. The Abarth 695 Club Italia is a manifesto of love for Italian motoring, a declaration of belonging to a world of authentic emotions. It was truly extraordinary to see how the synergy with Club Italia resulted in this unique interpretation of the Scorpion,” said Roberto Giolito, Head of Stellantis Heritage for the Group’s Italian brands. ‘Stellantis Heritage will certainly continue to develop other exclusive initiatives like this one, creating unique or limited edition cars that perpetuate the identity and values of our Brands, keeping the tradition of Italian automotive excellence and passion alive.’
The Club Italia special series is distinguished by a unique two-tone livery, with the upper part in blue and the lower part in green, separated by a thin red beauty line: a refined chromatic combination that recalls the symbolic colours of Club Italia. The elegant and unmistakable look is completed by bronze-coloured 17″ alloy wheels, matching mirror caps and Club Italia badges. The interior, a true masterpiece of customisation, features sporty shell seats upholstered in a dedicated tobacco-coloured leather, a leather and Alcantara steering wheel with carbon inserts and personalised “viewfinder”. In addition, the Sport button on the dashboard has been embellished with the Club Italia logo, the same emblem embroidered in relief on the seats, testifying to the exclusivity of this Abarth Classiche creation.
