The Abarth Classiche 1000 SP is a limited production sports car of which only 5 units were made in 2022. [1] [2]

It was previewed by the Abarth 1000 SP concept, shown in early 2021, inspired by the original 1966 racing car. [3]

Given that the Classiche 1000 SP is based on the Alfa Romeo 4C, [4] it features the same turbocharged 1.75-liter four-cylinder engine which produces 240 PS (177 kW) at 6,000 rpm. [5] Underpinning the car is the same hybrid chassis as the 4C, complete with a carbon fiber central cell, while the front uses aluminum in its construction. [6]
