The Revolutionary Original Model
The Fiat Nuova Multipla was launched in 1998 to replace the old Multipla based on the Fiat 600. This bold vehicle represented a completely innovative approach to the MPV concept, with its atypical design characterized by rounded lines and a revolutionary interior layout. Fiat miniatures from this era testify to the constant spirit of innovation of the Turin brand.
The original vehicle was distinguished by its 3+3 configuration, offering six real seats in two rows, a remarkable technical feat for its time. Its modular architecture allowed for multiple interior layout configurations, making the Multipla a true Swiss army knife of family mobility. The brown version was particularly appreciated for its understated elegance.
Despite its functional success, the Multipla received a mixed commercial reception due to its polarizing aesthetics. However, it quickly gained cult status, now recognized as a pioneer of modern compact MPVs and praised by designers for its creative boldness.
Fiat in the 1990s-2000s
During the creation of the Nuova Multipla, Fiat was undergoing a phase of creative renewal led by designers like Giorgetto Giugiaro and Roberto Giolito. The Turin brand was looking to reposition itself in the European market by offering innovative vehicles, far from conventional aesthetic codes. This approach fit into the group's strategy to conquer new market segments.
The history of Fiat, founded in 1899 by Giovanni Agnelli, showcases a constant ability to adapt to mobility needs. From the legendary Topolino to modern city cars, the brand has always managed to combine technical innovation with accessibility. Italian cars have built their reputation on this pragmatic approach to the automobile, prioritizing everyday use without sacrificing style.
The Multipla perfectly fit this philosophy, offering a maximum family mobility solution in minimal space, a direct heir to the ingenious spirit that led to the creation of the original Fiat 600 Multipla in the 1950s.
An Icon of Automotive Design
The story of the Fiat Nuova Multipla is inextricably linked to an anecdote revealing its cultural impact. At its public presentation, the vehicle provoked such contrasting reactions that some journalists dubbed it "the ugliest car in the world," while others saw it as a masterpiece of functional design. This polarization paradoxically contributed to its media success.
The Multipla quickly won over artistic and intellectual circles, becoming the vehicle of choice for European architects and designers. Its presence in numerous auteur films and television series reinforced its status as a cultural object. The Museum of Modern Art in New York even integrated it into its permanent collections, the ultimate recognition of its aesthetic value.
This late recognition perfectly illustrates how creative boldness can transcend initial criticism. Today, the Multipla is studied in design schools as a perfect example of the primacy of function over conventional form, demonstrating that true innovation sometimes requires breaking established codes.
Its influence can be seen in many contemporary MPVs that have adopted its principles of optimized interior layout, confirming that the Multipla was simply ahead of its time, anticipating the needs of modern urban mobility.

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).
