Where an electric Abarth 500e deserves extra scrutiny
- Charging port and onboard charger. The port, cables and AC charging are tested for reliable, fault-free operation.
- Battery state of health. We read the high-voltage battery data to estimate degradation against its original capacity — the single biggest factor in an EV's value.
- DC fast-charge behaviour. Charging performance and any throttling or errors are checked, because a battery that won't fast-charge cleanly is a red flag.
- Thermal management. We look for coolant leaks and stored thermal faults that quietly shorten battery life.
- Range versus rated. We compare the indicated range and consumption with what the car should deliver to spot a weak pack.

Which Abarth 500e issues are worth checking before I buy?

Yes — a full on-board diagnostic scan is part of every inspection.
