Germany's G-Tech has unveiled a new tuning program for the Fiat 500. Dubbed the Sportster, the model features a "chopped" roof that gives the hatchback a distinctive and sporty appearance. There's also a new front bumper, revised side skirts and a modified rear fascia with an integrated diffuser and a center-mounted dual exhaust system. Interior changes are limited, but apparently include Recaro seats, a Momo steering wheel and stainless steel pedals. The entry-level model produces 224 PS (165 kW / 221 hp), while the Sportster RS develops 250 PS (184 kW / 247 hp). If that isn't impressive enough, the range-topping Sportster RGT has 340 PS (250 kW / 335 hp).
