ABARTH and the Yamaha Movistar MotoGP team continue their partnership
For the third consecutive year
Yamaha Movistar MotoGP – The renewed partnership between Abarth and Yamaha is based on sharing values such as love of sport and sporting loyalty, as well as the desire to excel in motor sports and push oneself beyond one's limits. After participating in the third and final official IRTA pre-season test session in Qatar, Valentino Rossi and Maverik Viñales are eager to start the new season. The scorpion symbol of Abarth will accompany them on the front fairing of their Yamaha YZR-M1 for all 18 races of the championship, from the first stage in Losail (Qatar), on 26 March, up to the last Grand Prix, scheduled in Valencia (Spain ) on November 12.
The continuous search for the best performance goes beyond the boundaries of sport and reaches beyond the tracks, as demonstrated by the exciting cars born from the collaboration between the two brands. This is the case of Abarth 595 Yamaha Factory Racing Edition, developed by bringing the engine power from 140 to 160 HP and characterized by the unmistakable roar of racing cars, and of the even more powerful Abarth 695 two-seater Yamaha Factory Racing Edition, equipped with a 190 HP engine and characterized by the special white and blue livery.
The collaboration between Abarth and Yamaha also led to the creation of the Yamaha XSR 900 Abarth. This lightweight yet high-performance café racer is the first motorcycle resulting from the partnership between the two brands as part of Yamaha's Faster Son program. The two-wheeler shares the dynamic gray livery with red finishes with the Abarth 695 XSR Yamaha, the new car produced in a limited and numbered edition by the Scorpion brand. There are 695 examples in the sedan version and 695 in the convertible version, characterized by extensive use of carbon fiber components, to underline the affinity with the fairing, the front mudguard and the seat cover of the motorcycle, in addition to the colors and details of the bodywork that reflect the Yamaha style. The Abarth 695 The 695 is completed by the XSR logo on the tailgate.
