Abarth Classiche 1300 OT Based on Alfa Romeo 4C. Abarth Classiche 1300 OT is the new vehicle designed by Heritage to pay homage to the iconic car that achieved racing success half a century ago. This special edition, within Heritage’s “Reloaded by Creators” project, offers to the enthusiasts the opportunity to own a contemporary reinterpretation of one of the most iconic cars from the 1960s. In 1965, the Fiat-Abarth OT 1300 stood out on the track for its exceptional agility and power, derived from an efficient elaboration of the Fiat 850.
Featuring a lightweight and aerodynamic fibreglass body and a distinctive “periscope” mounted afterwards to cool the cabin, the OT 1300 became an icon of Abarth innovation in racing cars. As of today, the Heritage team under the label “Abarth Classiche” pays tribute to those everlasting values with the new Abarth Classiche 1300 OT, a work that fuses style, performance, and history. Mechanically based on the Abarth Classiche 1000 SP project, from which the Alfa Romeo 4C was shaped, this new creation retains the essence of an authentic Abarth. The bodywork, now made of carbon fibre, newly introduces the characteristic “periscope” of the historic car, reinterpreted in a contemporary key. The slotted plexiglass rear window for cooling and the large rear grille for the engine compartment, featuring “Abarth” lettering, emphasize the bond with the historic design. The front end, with its sinuous curves, is reminiscent of Abarth sports cars of the past, with generous openings dedicated to cooling. Abarth Classiche 1300 OT represents the most authentic and genuine way to honor an epic car that is still in the hearts of all true enthusiasts of the Abarth brand around the world.
The car, produced in limited edition of five units, is already available for order.
