Fiat unveils Pulse Abarth Scorpionissima concept at Interlagos

Fiat has unveiled the Pulse Abarth Scorpionissima, an experimental concept vehicle showcased at the 2026 Interlagos Festival. Developed as a market and design study, the prototype aims to gauge public reaction to new aesthetic elements before deciding whether to move into full production.

The concept is based on the Brazilian-produced Pulse Abarth, a B-segment sports crossover. While the mechanical components remain unchanged from the standard model—featuring a 1.3 turbo flex engine producing up to 185 hp and 27.5 kgfm of torque—the exterior and interior receive significant visual updates. These include a glossy black hood, acid-green accents, and a new, more aggressive Abarth typography.

Inside, the cabin features suede upholstery and Scorpionissima branding on the seats. The digital dashboard includes a custom welcome animation featuring a moving scorpion. The design language seeks to align the South American Abarth identity with its high-performance European counterparts.
