Vehicle Overview

The Fiat 1100 TV Pininfarina (1957) is a delightful example of mid-century Italian automotive design, combining elegance, functionality, and innovation. This particular model, developed as a prototype by Pininfarina, represents a forward-thinking interpretation of the popular Fiat 1100 Turismo Veloce (TV), known for its sporty performance and appeal to style-conscious drivers. It debuted as a prototype at the 1957 Geneva Auto Show, offering a glimpse into the possibilities for small-series production.

The pleasant and balanced lines of the body create a modern aesthetic, showcasing Pininfarina’s skill in crafting proportions that are both practical and visually appealing.

This is further complemented by the large windows, which not only improve visibility but also create an open and inviting atmosphere inside the vehicle.

Underneath its stylish exterior, the Fiat 1100 TV Pininfarina is built on the proven mechanical underpinnings of the Fiat 1100, a model celebrated for its reliable performance and versatility. The Pininfarina prototype sought to elevate these attributes by wrapping them in a more exclusive and luxurious package, appealing to a discerning clientele.The car’s appearance at t he 1957 Geneva Auto Show showcased not only Fiat’s collaboration with one of Italy’s premier design houses but also the creativity and innovation that defined Italian automotive design in this era.
