ON SALE 1 DECEMBER

It’s here! The all-new electric Abarth 500e aims to upset the hot hatch apple cart with its 155hp battery power – but can it succeed? We have all the details you need. We also drive the new Alfa Tonale Plug-In Hybrid Q4 to find out if it’s the version enthusiasts have been craving. Ferrari fans will delight in our drive story of a sensational concours-winning 330 GTC, plus a (hopefully) Le Mans-winning new racer – the 499P. Our cover car is another racer from six decades ago – the amazing Lancia Aurelia B20 GT – while we also reveal the tragic tale of Lancia’s aborted Flavia SS Zagato. A pair of Fiat Uno Turbos (one a TV star) get our juices flowing, while we also look back at why the Uno – and 11 other Italian cars – won the Car of the Year award. With loads of event and rally reports, the latest news and dozens of cars for sale, this month’s Auto Italia is absolutely unmissable!
