When a company like Hamann that specializes on BMWs and other high-end marques like Ferrari and Land Rover suddenly changes… its tune and focuses on the new 500, if anything else, that shows you how well Europeans have received Fiat’s retro-styled mini. The German tuner’s offerings for the 500 include both cosmetic and mechanical upgrades. The 500’s appearance is spiced on the outside with various decals and new 17-inch, 5-spoke matt black alloys combined with 195/40 ZR17 or 215/34 ZR 17 tires (prices start from €1,420). Inside there are aluminum pedals and a car mat set with an embroidered logo. -Continued
Hamann has developed a sport exhaust system for the 1.4-liter petrol version with two round end pipes made of high-grade steel (70 mm diameter), a pre-muffler with metal catalyst and a sport fan manifold. Especially for the 1.3-liter diesel version, Hamann offers an engine kit that adds an extra 15 Hp, rising total output to 90 Hp and maximum torque to 230 Nm at 1,750 rpm.
Buyers can also opt for a sport suspension kit that brings the mini Fiat 30 mm closer to the ground along with anewly-developed braking system.
