7. 2016 Fiat Abarth

The Fiat Abarth is Fiat’s 500 model on steroids. Under the hood of this little land rocket is a quick 160 horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder. A five-speed manual is standard, with a six-speed automatic being optional. The exhaust sounds like a supercar, with a deep growl, giving the Abarth some character. The handling is responsive and feisty, with a lowered suspension giving it a lower center of gravity. This allows the Abarth to handle sharp corners and rough roads with ease. Either a coupe or a softtop convertible is available, so you can rip through traffic with the wind in your hair. You wouldn’t expect this kind of performance from a Fiat 500, making the 500 Abarth a great sleeper car that will shock anyone trying to race you at a traffic light.
