I know that both cars share the same platform does this include the suspension? Im having trouble sourcing oem fiat parts and so was considering going for mazda parts that seem to be more available but will they fit? any help greatly appreciated.

I believe it depends on model, the Abarth one having a firmer set up than the standard, but different to the 5…theoretically, I’m guessing it’s spring rates, shockers etc, can’t think they’d make completely different arms and mounting points
Only way to truly check is to have both sets of parts lists…a helpful motor factor or dealer should be able to cross-reference
