Fiat confirms 500 Abarth Cabrio for LA with F1-inspired video

In addition to the electric 500e, Fiat will be debuting a new 500 Abarth Cabrio under the lights of the Los Angeles Auto Show later this month. And to get everyone excited about the scorpion-stung droptop, Fiat has launched this promo video showing the cars zipping around a track at the hands of Ferrari Formula One drivers Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa. Fiat confirmed the car's LA debut in its one-sentence description of the video on the company's YouTube channel.

There's a lot to love about the 500 Abarth – we've enjoyed it on several occasions – and we can only assume that this new Cabrio model won't disappoint. And how could it? After all, one of our favorite parts about the Abarth experience is the utterly amazing sound that shoots out of the tailpipes, and that aural pleasure will only be enhanced with the roof flipped back.
