To celebrate the 175th anniversary of yacht builder Riva, Fiat has created a very special version of the Fiat 500 in the shipowner’s colors: the Abarth 695 Rivale.
Inspired by the 17-metre 56′ Rivale, one of the most agile and high-performance yachts ever built by Riva, the Abarth 695 Rivale is a blend of style, elegance, sophistication and performance from the two Italian brands.
Like all Fiat 500 Abarths, the Abarth 695 Rivale is a sporty version of the Fiat 500, featuring the 180 hp 1.4-liter Turbo-Jet engine, Akrapovic carbon exhaust, Koni FSD shock absorbers, carbon shifter and carbon/leather steering wheel. And, of course, the typical Abarth scorpion logo.
But Riva is a company specializing in luxury boats, so the Rivale had to be refined.
The Riva’s two-tone blue-gray livery features a double aqua-navy line halfway up the body, reminiscent of a yacht’s “waterline”. The colors are echoed on the interior leather upholstery and highlighted by satin chrome castings. It features various unique details mentioning “175 Anniversary”.
Only 350 examples will be produced, 175 coupés and 175 convertibles.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire one of the 175 Anniversary Abarth 695 Rivale Cabriolet delivered new in Belgium in 2017.
2 previous owners. Regularly maintained in Fiat concessions.
