Autobianchi - Autobianchi Bianchina
The Autobianchi Bianchina was the first model of car produced by the newly restructured Autobianchi company, which was first shown in 1957. The Bianchina was basically a remodelled version of the Fiat 500, which came at a higher price. The Bianchina came with five bodywork options of a saloon (Berlina), Convertible (Transformabile), a Cabriolet which was fully convertible, Station wagon (Panoramica) and van (Furgoncino). For marketing in France only, after some 7 years of production (from 1965) they marketed the Autobianchi Lutece (the Berlina saloon), Autobianchi Texane and the open topped Autobianchi Eden Roc. Production of Autobianchis Bianchina continued to 1970.
