Fiat Freely

The Fiat Freely by Savio designed by Paolo Martin.

Vehicle Overview

The Fiat Freely designed by Paolo Martin. In this project carried out by Carrozzeria Savio, the underlying theme was the following: the study of a multipurpose vehicle for all vehicles with low production costs. For the Fiat Freely, the Fiat Panda was chosen by Carrozzeria Savio as basis, being a light and versatile vehicle. In the first place, modularity was developed, already proposed graphically twenty years earlier in 1967 with the famous Ferrari Modulo, but now re-proposed in concrete form. Various body parts, such as the front, rear, doors, sills, wheel arches, sides and wheel arches, excluding the headlights, are perfectly equivalent to limiting costs. The windshield and the steering wheel of the Fiat Freely were foldable in order to obtain a single plane that could be walked on and used for various services, such as the transport of long objects such as poles or ladders, the passage under the wings of the planes in the smaller airports, the temporary life in isolated places or even for an occasional camping trip. For this reason, a symmetrical curtain was installed. A rigid hardtop was also available. Unfortunately, the vehicle was not understood by the press, undoubtedly impressed by the cover which they considered imaginative. Furthermore, Carrozzeria Savio was considered “minor” and therefore not worthy of interest by the so-called “expert” journalists. Now, modularity is being considered again and perhaps some solutions could be rethought. Ideas have no age.

Carrozzeria Savio: The History

Carrozzerai Savio quickly gained recognition in the burgeoning automotive industry. One of their early notable creations was a custom sedan with silent block technology for the now-defunct Fabbrica Automobili Giovanni Ceirano. This innovation was followed by collaborations with prominent Italian manufacturers, including Lancia, Alfa Romeo, OM, Isotta Fraschini, Ansaldo, and Fiat. The partnership with Fiat, which began in these formative years, would become a cornerstone of Savio’s legacy.
