The Fiat Ritmo is a Hot Wheels casting based on the production car of the same name, debuting in the 1983 Hot Wheels. The Ritmo was called the Strada in the UK and the USA ("Ritmo" was thought to be hard for English speakers to pronounce), but the real car had bad rust protection and wasn´t particularly popular. The "Abarth" badge on the Hot Wheels version refers to a famous Italian company who developed "tuned" versions of various Fiats for rallying and racing.
