There are nine Abarths in my city, including mine. Much like how jeep wrangler owners wave at each other in America, we Abarth owners do the same be it with a flick of headlights, a rev of the engine or a nod of the head, we acknowledge each other. 6 years on and I still can't find any worthy replacement for an Abarth.

Back in April 2004, our family was looking to replace the ageing Omni we had. I tried so hard to sell the Palio, but dad wasnt convinced about the Fiat dealerships and service network. Finally we settled for the 75hp Indica petrol. Weird as it may sound, it was a fun car (not dynamically ofcourse), had good grunt for its time. Finally in 2010, we got home the Linea 1.3L top end. Apart from the ground clearance, it was one lovely car. Not sure if you would agree, but the Multijet sounded nicest in the Linea compared to any other car it shared its engine bay with. The engine note when revved hard was lovely for a diesel. We finally sold it to our neighbors, but still parked outside our gate. Almost 3 years and I still regret selling it. What a lovely car it was, in fact it still is.

The first time i tested my friends Abarth punto in Kerala highways, i was simply blown away by its insane power. Whats funnier is that Abarth gives u no clue as to whats lurking inside the hood. Even the exhaust is just like the normal 1.2 Naturally aspirated petrol engines in the segment. But once i hit the accelerator, the massive torque followed by G force that throws us back on the seat was terrifyingly thrilling. Once you get used to the gear setup then its just point and shoot. Out on highways there is simply no beating the Abarth. I often used to exchange my Figo 1.5 tdci with my friends Abarth for occasional trips. The only downside in Abarth was a gearbox which did no justice and a completely messed up ergonomics that ruined an otherwise supreme beast on wheels. 👌👌👌

I drive a Dodge Dart 1.4T with a DCT its the grandson of the Punto engine - makes a lot more power and torque. Insane amounts of FUN - it has an Alfa/Fiat derived chassis. My first daily driver was my parent's 2008 Swift DDiS, and I loved it. I had no idea Fiat was responsible for that engine. Growing up, catching an Abarth in the wild on our Indian roads was always a delight; thank you Fiat.

greetings from Brasil! over here the FIat Palio is a very popular car, actually the last variant of this model was sold here until 2021, was the lightweight pick-up truck Strada and even having such an old project, still was the leader in sales in the category and today Fiat sells a new version of the Strada but in a modern platform here most of the Palio cars was sold with a 1,0 litre FIRE flex engine (it accepts petrol or ethanol, or even a mix of both in any proportion) and is a very popular cheap used car, and is a very easy sight on brazilian roads, but we don't have any diesel engines in these cars (actually in brazil any vehicles that aren't trucks, lorries, buses or 4x4 with low gear can't legally have diesel engines) we also have a sports version, the Palio 1.8R, with 115 hp a good trivia aswell: the Palio Adventure was designed in Brazil and most of the Weekend models was sold in this trim level over here, and we have this trim level for the Strada pick-up aswell

In 2012, I picked another shooter from the FIAT stable - the legendary TJet+. Both my FIATs gave me nothing else but joy for all the years that I had them. Sadly had to give up my TJet to a friend from the community since I got a truck (Isuzu VCross) in 2019 but I still have my Palio 1.6. That 1.6 motor still acts like therapy for me on the tarmac laden roads of Pune. FIAT India - so much promise and so much sadness at the same time. Will hang on to my Palio 1.6 for as long as I can.

Later during college being in a UNO in which I felt speeding above 100 but while actually doing 60 kmph 😬 And later during early years of my career when I started appretiating vintage cars I started falling in love with 118's , Padminis(I consider them as fiat at heart). I do remeber going to Delhi Auto Expo where they showcased an abarth puntho and clicking some nice pics of it and a close up on the cool scorpion logo. But sadly I never brought a Fiat.

I cried.... I do that each time I see the Punto Abarth. Because that was the time I was out in the market to buy my second car... First one being the Palio. My heart used to pull me towards Abarth or even the Linea Tjet. But the agony was such that Fiat who was headquartered in Mumbai did not have any showroom in the city.... only Fiat can do this. Also, despite die hard lover of Abarth and Tjet... I dared not to test drive even once because then all sense would then go out of the window and heart would get me a Fiat.... But this time I had to let the head rule... and got myselves a Hyundai Verna.

Crazy to think that they didn’t have a dealer in Mumbai when Abarth was launched!!!!

My father was a great fan of Fiat. His first car was a FIAT 1100 Delight. He drove it for over 2 lakh kilometres. We later had the FIAT SIENNA 1.7 Turbo DIESEL which was later replaced by a FIAT PETRA 1.9 DIESEL. Fiat tried their best and bought in the best India had ever seen. Sometimes I feel they were little ahead of their times. Always a car that one will buy with thair heart and will never regret

Then and now , Fiat is engine supplier in India ! We can't expect every manufacturer to get down to our "Standard" 😁 like Maruti / Hyundai. Whatever Fiat launched our people always complained. Riding position , rubber gear shift blah blah ... Like any other Fiat owners, few niggles aside ,I'm a very happy and satisfied owner of Abarth Punto ! That well sorted chassis, handling, dynamics, and that steering feedback ❤️, no cars of today come close !

Still drive my Fiat Linea MJD from 2010. Service is a pain but am unable to buy a different car coz none of the electronic steering in other cars can match the presence of Fiat hydraulic steering. It will be a lot of great nostalgic memories when I move to a new car.

DISAGREE with the last 50 seconds. I've owned a Punto for 10 years, and it's started rusting, leaking, squeaking after 6 months! What a car to drive. Stuck on Yokohamas and I've not owned a better car to drive since. Sirish, you're the best we have. Hope to see a collab between yourself and SVP.
