Fiat 1500 Coupé Sportinia
The Fiat 1500 Coupé Sportinia by Scioneri.
Vehicle Overview
The Fiat 1500 Coupé Sportinia, a bespoke creation by the visionary Giovanni Michelotti for the esteemed small coachbuilder Scioneri, epitomized exclusivity with only 24 specimens ever crafted. Hand-built with meticulous attention to detail, production commenced in 1962, offering discerning enthusiasts a two-door coupé experience like no other. Based on the standard Fiat 1500 chassis, the Sportinia distinguished itself with its striking twin-headlight design, giving it a bold and dynamic presence on the road. Michelotti’s signature styling was evident in its sleek lines and refined proportions, making the Sportinia a true work of automotive artistry. Beyond its elegant exterior, the interior was equally impressive, featuring a meticulously crafted cabin designed for both comfort and sophistication. Under the hood, the Fiat 1500 Coupé Sportinia retained the reliable and spirited 1.5-liter engine from its base model, providing a balance of performance and practicality. While not a high-performance sports car, its lightweight construction and nimble handling made it a joy to drive, embodying the charm and character of Italian motoring in the 1960s. Despite its rarity and desirability, the passage of time has seen many Fiat 1500 Coupé Sportinia models succumb to the ravages of age and neglect. Today, only a precious few have survived, serving as cherished reminders of an era when automotive craftsmanship and elegance reigned supreme. These remaining examples are highly sought after by collectors, appreciated not only for their rarity but also for their unique blend of design, heritage, and driving pleasure. The Fiat 1500 Coupé Sportinia stands as a testament to the artistry of Giovanni Michelotti and the craftsmanship of Scioneri, capturing the essence of an era where small coachbuilders thrived in creating bespoke masterpieces. For those fortunate enough to own or experience one, the Sportinia remains a rare and exquisite gem in the world of classic automobiles.
