Details:

The Fiat 131 Abarth Rally is one of the most successful and iconic Group 4 rally cars of the late 1970s and early 1980s, developed by Fiat in collaboration with Abarth for top-level international rally competition. It played a major role in the early years of the World Rally Championship, which was established in 1973.

Based on the Fiat 131 road car, the Abarth rally version featured a rear-wheel-drive layout, a 2.0-litre twin-cam engine, and extensive weight reduction with strengthened chassis and rally-specific suspension. Its design focused on durability, balance, and controllability across mixed surfaces including tarmac, gravel, and snow.

The Fiat 131 Abarth achieved major international success, winning multiple WRC Manufacturers’ Championships in 1977, 1978, and 1980. It became a defining rally car of its era, driven by legendary competitors such as Walter Röhrl, Markku Alén, and Bernard Darniche, and proved highly effective in events like Monte Carlo, Finland, and Sanremo.

For slot car racing enthusiasts, the Fiat 131 Abarth represents classic Group 4 rally heritage, offering authentic 1970s motorsport styling, legendary WRC pedigree, and iconic Italian racing character, making it a must-have model for historic rally slot car collections.
