IED Abarth Scorpion Concept Pictures Geneva Motor Show Live 2011

The Abarth Scorpion was designed by a group of students from the School of Design in Milan under the direction of FDI Borgogno Luca and Luigi Giampaolo designers at Pininfarina and Maserati. This small two-seater electric propulsion is quite in line with current environmental concerns but not in any way deny the Abarth sporting tradition.

With a length of 4.01 m to 1.90 m wide and 1.19 m high, FDI Abarth Scorpion is compact and sleek. The wheelbase of 2.35 m gives all his agility. Dynamically, the designers worked on the lower center of gravity by positioning the lithium-ion batteries behind the seats and the four electric motors in the wheels.

The design of this concept evokes, as its name suggests, the Abarth scorpion symbol. Note particularly the small appendage on the roof recalling the sting of terrible poisonous arachnid.
