good write up

 

[Hellcat]

Two-pedal fans will have to wait until the second half of next year later for the automatic, as will those wanting more power – the Cooper S-rivalling Abarth with its 135bhp 1.4-litre turbo-blown unit also arrives next year.

True?

True?

Apparently the Abarth will have 135 bhp, but a kit will be offered to up that to 150 bhp.

the same engine that as standard will put out 150bhp in the abarth gp, and be raised to 180bhp with an add on factory kit


anyone like to guess whats going to happen with a week of launch?
