Fiat 1100 R

In the 1950s and 1960s, while the Fiat 500, 600 and 850 were conquering the masses with their practicality and economy, there were those who wanted something more. More space, more comfort, more presence on the road.

Those who chose a Fiat 1100 were looking for a serious, robust and reliable car.

With its raised driving position and spacious interior, this sedan was clearly superior to the small cars of the time. Travelling in an 1100 meant enjoying the view, feeling more like a gentleman, more like a driver, more like a protagonist on the road.

This 1100 R from 1967 is one of the last examples of this latest model: the R (Renewed) version, recognizable by its round rear lights, represents the swan song of this successful car, which in 1969 was replaced by the revolutionary 128

The latest evolution of an icon

More essential in design than the previous versions, but more modern and functional, the 1100 R is equipped with a 1,089 cc 48 HP engine, perfect for traveling slowly but in style. The generous trunk, the soft suspension and the well-finished passenger compartment make it the ideal companion for a relaxed trip in the Tuscan hills or along the Umbrian roads.

The drive is rear, with rigid axle rear suspension.
