2010 marked the debut of the FA010—a groundbreaking single-seater that was ahead of its time, paving the way for the Formula 4 revolution. This car became a success thanks to its perfect balance of elements and performance, tailored for driver development, as well as its engine choice.

Born from the collaboration between Autotecnica Motori and Abarth, the 1.4L turbo engine selected for the category proved to be a long-term success. Over the years, it established itself as a reliable veteran, powering two generations of Tatuus Formula 4 cars in the decades that followed.
