Abarth 595 Wiper Blade Sizes

This guide is here to help you find the right windscreen wiper blades for your Abarth 595. You do not need to know anything about wipers to use it. Everything is written in plain English, and it covers the sizes for each version of the car so you can match what is already on your windscreen.

The Abarth 595 comes in more than one version, and the wiper sizes differ between them. That is why it pays to check which version you have before you buy anything. Getting the sizes right means the blades will fit your wiper arms and clear your windscreen properly.

To use this guide, first work out which version of the Abarth 595 you drive. Then look at the sizes for the driver side and the passenger side, and the rear if your version has one. Take a moment to check your current blades and arms before ordering, and read the care and replacement sections so your new blades last as long as possible.

Abarth 595 wiper sizes for each generation

For the hatch version of the Abarth 595, the driver side blade is 24 inch (600 mm) and the passenger side blade is 14 inch (350 mm). This version also has a rear wiper, and that blade is 12 inch (300 mm). When you fit the new blades, take a moment to make sure each one clicks securely onto the arm before you lower it back to the glass. It is also worth checking that the blades sit flat and clear the whole swept area.

For the convertible version of the Abarth 595, you will need a 24 inch (600 mm) blade for the driver side and a 14 inch (350 mm) blade for the passenger side. This version does not list a rear wiper, so there is nothing to fit at the back. Before you fit the new blades, give the glass a quick clean so the rubber can sit flat. Then check that each blade is firmly attached and sweeps smoothly when you try the wipers.

How to work out which Abarth 595 you have

The first step is to work out which version of the Abarth 595 you have. Look at whether your car is the hatch or the convertible. The years covered here are the same for both, so the body style is the clue you need. If you are unsure, check your car's paperwork or look at the shape of the roof and rear of the car.

Once you know your version, match each side separately. The driver side and passenger side take different sizes, so do not assume they are the same. Check the size of the blade already on each arm, and compare it with the guide. If your version has a rear wiper, match that size too. Fitting the correct size to each side keeps your view clear and helps the blades last.

When to replace your wiper blades

Worn wiper blades show themselves in a few clear ways. You may see streaks of water left behind after the blade passes. You might notice smearing, where the glass looks greasy instead of clear. Squeaking or juddering as the blade moves is another common sign. Sometimes the rubber itself looks split or cracked along the edge.

Any of these signs means the blade is no longer doing its job properly. A worn blade can leave you with poor visibility in rain, which makes driving harder and less safe. If you cannot see the road clearly, your reaction time suffers. Replacing worn blades is a simple job that makes a real difference to your safety.

Do not wait for a storm to find out your blades are past their best. Check them regularly, especially before wet weather. If the rubber looks tired or the glass stays streaky after a wipe, fit new blades. Good blades clear the glass in one pass and help you see the road ahead clearly.

Looking after your wipers

Looking after your wipers starts with clean glass. Dirt and grit on the windscreen wear the rubber down faster. Wipe the glass regularly and clean the blade edges with a damp cloth. Sun and dust also take their toll on the rubber over time, so parking in shade where you can helps.

When you clean the glass, lift the wiper arms off the windscreen carefully so you can reach the blades. Do not let an arm snap back down onto the glass, as that can damage it. Check your washer fluid too, and top it up so you can clear the screen when you need to. A little care keeps your blades working well for longer.

Frequently asked questions

How do I know which Abarth 595 version I have?

Look at whether your car is the hatch or the convertible. Both cover the same years, so the body style is the clue. If you are unsure, check your car's paperwork or ask someone familiar with the car to confirm before you order blades.

Are the driver and passenger blades the same size?

No. The driver side and passenger side take different sizes on the Abarth 595. Check each side against the guide and match them separately. Fitting the correct size to each arm keeps your view clear and helps the blades work properly.

Does my Abarth 595 have a rear wiper?

The hatch version has a rear wiper, and the guide lists its size. The convertible version does not list a rear wiper, so there is nothing to fit at the back. Check your own car to be sure before ordering.

How often should I replace my wiper blades?

There is no fixed number here. Replace them when you notice streaks, smears, squeaking or juddering, or when the rubber looks split or cracked. Poor visibility in rain is a clear sign it is time for new blades.

Can I fit the blades myself?

Yes, fitting wiper blades is a simple job. Take care with the wiper arm and make sure each blade clicks securely into place. Check that the blade sits flat on the glass and sweeps smoothly before you rely on it in the rain.

What should I do if my new blades smear?

Give the glass and the blade edges a clean with a damp cloth. Dirt or grease on the windscreen can cause smearing. If the smearing continues, check that the blade is fitted correctly and sitting flat against the glass.
