Fiat 595 Abarth 1.4 145 vs Abarth 500

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Fiat 595 Abarth 1.4 145 is the quicker car, covering it in 15.56 s at 89.8 mph against the Abarth 500’s 15.91 s — a margin of 0.35 s. To 60 mph the Fiat 595 Abarth 1.4 145 takes 7.02 s and the Abarth 500 7.49 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from each car’s published kerb mass, rated power and drivetrain, then fitted to its own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Questions

Is the Fiat 595 Abarth 1.4 145 or the Abarth 500 faster?
The Fiat 595 Abarth 1.4 145. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 15.56 s to the Abarth 500's 15.91 s, a margin of 0.35 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 7.02 s against 7.49 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Fiat 595 Abarth 1.4 145 0-60 time?
The Fiat 595 Abarth 1.4 145 reaches 60 mph in 7.02 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 15.56 s at 89.8 mph.
What is the Abarth 500 0-60 time?
The Abarth 500 reaches 60 mph in 7.49 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 15.91 s at 86.8 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Fiat 595 Abarth 1.4 145 trips the lights at 89.8 mph and the Abarth 500 at 86.8 mph at the end of the quarter mile. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every time on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. Each car is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it matches its own published acceleration figures — 2 of 2 for the Fiat 595 Abarth 1.4 145 and 9 of 9 for the Abarth 500. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
