Stellantis Heritage and Club Italia give life to eight exclusive Abarth 695s

Stellantis Heritage and Club Italia present the Abarth 695 Club Italia, an exclusive series of eight cars reserved for members of the prestigious association that preserves the creative heritage of Italian automobiles with a special focus on style, technology, design, craftsmanship and sporting traditions. It is no coincidence that these values are seamlessly combined with the mission of Heritage, the department that preserves and promotes the vast heritage of the group's Italian automotive brands through its invaluable collection exhibited at the Heritage Hub in Turin, participation in international events and a wide range of exclusive services. Among the services it offers are certificates of origin and authenticity, complete restorations and the creation of custom models through the "Reloaded by Creators" program, which restores the original beauty of classic Alfa Romeo, FIAT, Lancia and Abarth cars and creates one-off or small series of collector cars piese auto online.

The eight exclusive Abarth 695 Club Italia are also part of Stellantis Heritage’s “Reloaded by Creators” program, but with one key distinction: they are the result of the transformation of new, albeit discontinued, cars into unique collector’s items thanks to the experts at Officine Classiche. Furthermore, Alessandro Ravera, Stellantis Heritage’s “Special Cars” Manager, stated that they were in agreement with Club Italia in developing the new special edition. Together, they created a car that instantly reflects the club’s distinctive style, including a livery inspired by sketches by Club Italia president Stefano Macaluso.

Roberto Giolito, Head of Stellantis Heritage for the group's Italian brands, states: "When passion, culture and expertise come together, we can create models that are capable of standing the test of time. The Abarth 695 Club Italia is a tribute to Italian automotive culture and allows one to connect with this exciting tradition. It was truly incredible to see how our collaboration with Club Italia gave life to this one-of-a-kind Abarth. I am confident that Stellantis Heritage will continue to develop more exclusive initiatives like this, producing unique or limited edition cars that preserve the heritage and identity of our brands, while always keeping alive the excellence and passion of the Italian automotive tradition."

The Club Italia special series stands out for its unique two-tone bodywork. The blue upper part is separated from the green lower part by a thin red line: a refined colour combination that recalls the Club Italia colours. The elegant and unique exterior is completed with bronze 17″ alloy wheels, matching mirror caps and Club Italia emblems. A masterpiece of personalisation, the interior features racing seats covered in special tobacco leather, and a leather and Alcantara steering wheel with carbon inserts and a customisable upper central marker. Furthermore, in another example of the exclusivity offered by Abarth Classiche, the Club Italia logo can be found both on the Sport button on the dashboard and embroidered on the seats.

The cars belong to the last 695 series with an internal combustion engine and retain the technical and dynamic characteristics of the model. Its exciting performance – acceleration from 0 to 100 in just 6.7 seconds and a top speed of 225 km/h – is enhanced by the Record Monza exhaust system, Koni FSD suspension and Brembo braking system with red calipers and floating discs.

Each Abarth 695 Club Italia will come with an Abarth Classiche certificate of authenticity with a metal label, a certification booklet and two identification plates – one in the interior and the other in the engine compartment – with the owner's name and the limited edition number.

Founded in 1985, Club Italia has developed a distinctive aesthetic language for its brand over the years, opting for the balanced use of blue, green and red colours that make all the club's products instantly recognisable. Furthermore, in the early nineties, the prestigious association collaborated with leading Italian brands to produce special series of cars, motorcycles, bicycles and watches, which were reserved exclusively for its members. The most famous models include the legendary Lancia Delta Integrale Club Italia from 1992, the Fiat Barchetta Club Italia from 1996 and the more recent Alfa Romeo 4C Club Italia and Maserati MC20 Club Italia. All these projects are love letters to automotive mechanics, Italian style and the desire to create unique works destined to become part of the collective imagination. Today, thanks to the collaboration with Stellantis Heritage, the Abarth 695 Club Italia is another creation designed to bring the values of beauty and Italian craftsmanship to roads around the world.
