Fiat Barchetta
Fiat Barchetta
The Fiat Barchetta is a roadster produced by the Italian Fiat Group between 1995 and 2006. Barchetta means “small boat” in Italian and also refers to a type of open body sports car. The Barchetta was developed between 1990 and 1994 under the project name Tipo B Spider 176. It was designed by Andreas Zapatinas and Alessandro Cavazza under the supervision of Peter Barrett Davis and other automotive designers at Centro Stile Fiat, and prototypes were produced by Stola.
Production began in February 1995 and lasted until June 2005, with a brief interruption due to the bankruptcy of Maggiora, the company that produced the bodywork. The Barchetta was based on the Fiat Punto Mark 1 chassis, but with a shortened wheelbase. The Barchetta has a 1,747 cc DOHC petrol engine equipped with variable valve timing.
The car on exhibition is in the most luxurious limited edition, which featured red leather and a red canvas roof. Each vehicle from this limited edition (1xxx units produced) has a plaque with a number inside. The vehicle on display is No. 800/1xxx
