The original model: a revolutionary sedan
The Fiat 110 was launched in 1962 as the spearhead of Fiat's sedan range, positioned above the popular 1100. Designed by Dante Giacosa's team, it marked a stylistic break with its more modern lines and redesigned grille. The vehicle offered remarkable technical innovations for its time, including a 4-cylinder engine of 1221 cm³ developing 55 horsepower.
This 4-door sedan was distinguished by its spacious interior and superior riding comfort, targeting a bourgeois clientele seeking distinction. The version presented here, with its two-tone sky blue body and black roof, perfectly illustrates the refined aesthetic codes of this pivotal decade.
The commercial success of the 110 was notable, particularly in European markets where it embodied the image of a modern and prosperous Italy. Its production ended in 1972, making way for new generations of Fiat sedans.
Fiat in the 1960s: the Turin golden age
The time when the Fiat 110 was created corresponds to the industrial peak of the Italian manufacturer. Under the leadership of Vittorio Valletta and then Giovanni Agnelli, Fiat experienced unprecedented international expansion. The Turin company diversified its range to conquer all segments of the European automotive market.
This prosperous era saw Fiat establish itself as the symbol of the Italian economic miracle. The brand's engineering offices, led by visionary engineers, multiplied technical and stylistic innovations. The 110 was part of this dynamic of excellence, representing Italian know-how in the high-end family sedan segment.
The history of Fiat, founded in 1899 by Giovanni Agnelli, reflects a constant quest for innovation. From the first automobiles of the early 20th century to the revolutionary models of the 1960s, the brand with the elliptical logo has continually shaped the European automotive industry.
The Fiat 110 and Italian cinema
The Fiat 110 occupies a special place in the Italian collective imagination due to its numerous appearances in 1960s cinema. This elegant sedan frequently served as a backdrop for the Italian comedies of the time, embodying the social rise of the emerging bourgeoisie.
Several renowned directors chose this model for their productions, attracted by its distinguished lines that perfectly symbolized modern Italy. The sky blue and black roof combination, particularly photogenic, was highly appreciated by shooting teams for its natural elegance on screen.
This cinematic notoriety greatly contributed to the commercial success of the model. Italian viewers, inspired by the heroes of their favorite films, saw in the 110 the embodiment of their social aspirations. This privileged relationship between automobile and the seventh art remains today a distinctive element of Italian culture.
The cultural influence of the Fiat 110 far exceeds its mere role as a means of transportation. It remains associated with a time of optimism and prosperity that indelibly marked the European identity of the following decades.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to understand the scales of miniatures?
Scale indicates the reduction ratio between the real car and the miniature. For example, at 1:43 scale, each centimeter on the miniature corresponds to 43 centimeters on the real vehicle.
Concretely, a 1/18 scale Ferrari model is approximately 25-30 cm long, while in 1/43 scale it measures approximately 10 cm.
What scales are available?
Our model cars are mainly offered in 1/43, 1/24, 1/18 and 1/87 (HO) scales. The scale is always indicated in the product sheet.
The smaller the second number, the larger the model car (e.g. 1/18 is larger than 1/43).
