菲亞特500 阿巴斯

????菲亞特（Fiat）500 阿巴斯（Abarth）用160馬力的渦輪增壓發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)取代了原本只有101馬力的發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)，從而讓動(dòng)力有了質(zhì)的飛越。它可不是繡花枕頭。換了更大的格柵、安裝了幾個(gè)擾流板之后，這款小車的外觀立刻顯得硬朗起來(lái)。它的懸掛、剎車和轉(zhuǎn)向系統(tǒng)也經(jīng)過(guò)了升級(jí)，價(jià)格也相應(yīng)地漲到23,000美元。由于經(jīng)銷商不足，加上它怪里怪氣的廣告沒(méi)有起到預(yù)期效果，因此菲亞特的返美之路并不順利。不過(guò)等到明年圣誕節(jié)，也許又會(huì)是另一番光景。

Fiat 500 Abarth

????The 500 minicar gets a lift when its tiny 101-hp engine is replaced with the turbocharged Abarth version that pumps it up to 160 hp. And ake no mistake -- this car is no cutie-pie. The exterior has been butched up with a bigger grille and a couple of spoilers. The suspension, brakes, and steering have also been upgraded, as has the price: $23,000. Fiat's return to the U.S has been slowed by a lack of dealers and a bizarre advertising campaign, but there may be a better Christmas story by December 25, 2012.
