  • Abarth 600e now qualifies for £1,500 UK Government Electric Car Grant
  • From £32,495 on-the-road, with grant applied alongside earlier 2026 price adjustment
  • High-performance electric crossover delivers signature Abarth thrills and great value

Abarth is accelerating its move into electric performance, with confirmation that the Abarth 600e now qualifies for the UK Government's £1,500 Electric Car Grant.

Following recent pricing adjustments introduced at the start of 2026, the addition of the grant means customers can now get behind the wheel of the Abarth 600e from just £32,495 on-the-road, enhancing the model's appeal as an electrified performance proposition.

At a time when drivers are balancing driving enjoyment with everyday costs, the introduction of the grant further strengthens the case for switching to high-performance electric driving.

The Abarth 600e redefines the brand's performance DNA for the electric era, delivering instant torque, sharp responsiveness and an engaging driving experience. With bold styling, agile handling and unmistakable road presence, it stays true to Abarth's sporting heritage while embracing zero-emissions mobility.

The UK Government's Electric Car Grant supports vehicles that meet strict environmental criteria, reinforcing the Abarth 600e's position as a performance EV that combines excitement with efficiency.

Kris Cholmondeley, managing director Abarth UK, said: "Abarth has always been about delivering exciting performance, and the 600e shows how electrification enhances that experience. With the addition of the Government's Electric Car Grant, the Abarth 600e becomes an even more compelling proposition, offering great value and bringing together performance, innovation and everyday usability in a way that's more relevant than ever."

With zero tailpipe emissions, reduced running costs and fewer maintenance requirements than petrol-powered alternatives, the Abarth 600e offers a modern take on performance driving.
