Description
The Abarth 695 Rivale is a limited series of special models produced as a collaboration between Abarth and the Italian yacht builder Riva. This sporty Fiat 500-based car is characterised by its exclusive design, often featuring two-tone colour schemes reminiscent of yachts, a sporty Akrapovič exhaust system and interior details such as a carbon fibre steering wheel and a dashboard with a beautifully crafted wood accent.
