Abarth 600e Gains Government Grant and Greater Value

Abarth 600e Gains Government Grant and Greater Value

Date Posted: 05 June 2026

Abarth has announced that the high-performance Abarth 600e now qualifies for the UK Government’s £1,500 Electric Car Grant, making the brand’s flagship electric crossover even more attractive to customers seeking exhilarating performance and outstanding value.

Combined with the pricing revisions introduced earlier in 2026, the grant reduces the entry price of the Abarth 600e to just £32,495 on-the-road, reinforcing its position as one of the most compelling performance EVs available today.

The additional incentive comes at a time when motorists are increasingly looking to balance driving enjoyment with lower running costs. The Abarth 600e delivers the brand’s renowned sporting character while offering the benefits of electric motoring, including zero tailpipe emissions, reduced maintenance requirements and lower day-to-day operating costs.

Designed to bring Abarth’s performance heritage into the electric era, the 600e combines instant torque, sharp acceleration and responsive handling with bold styling and unmistakable road presence. The result is an engaging driving experience that remains true to the brand’s DNA while embracing the future of mobility.

Eligibility for the Government’s Electric Car Grant reflects the vehicle’s compliance with stringent environmental standards, further highlighting the Abarth 600e’s blend of performance, efficiency and innovation.

Kris Cholmondeley, Managing Director of 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 its combination of thrilling electric performance, distinctive styling and enhanced affordability, the Abarth 600e continues to demonstrate that drivers no longer need to compromise between excitement and efficiency.

The Abarth 600e is available at both our Sunderland and Gateshead sites.  Come along today for a test drive!

Sherwoods Motor Group Limited is an Appointed Representative of Automotive Compliance Ltd, who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA No 497010). Automotive Compliance Ltd’s permissions as a Principal Firm allows Sherwoods Motor Group Limited to act as a credit broker, not as a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only.

We can introduce you to a selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. An introduction to a lender does not amount to independent financial advice and we act as their agent for this introduction. Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next best offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure the best deal you are eligible for from our panel of lenders. Lenders may pay a fixed commission to us for introducing you to them, calculated by reference to the vehicle model or amount you borrow. Different lenders may pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement, all of which are set by the lender concerned. If you ask us what the amount of commission is, we will tell you in good time before the Finance agreement is executed. All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18’s or over. Guarantees may be required.
