Fiat 1400 Monza

The Fiat 1400 Monza by Carrozzeria Riva.

Vehicle Overview

The Fiat 1400 Monza, an exquisite creation by Carrozzeria Riva from Merate, made its grand entrance at the prestigious 1951 Turin Auto Salon. This stunning vehicle quickly captured the admiration of attendees and critics alike, culminating in it winning the esteemed prize of honor at the 1951 Concorso d’Eleganza del Lido di Venezia. Powered by a 45-horsepower engine, the Fiat 1400 Monza was a remarkable blend of performance and design, retailing for approximately $2,100 at its release. Its distinctive two-tone paint scheme and the iconic cross-star front grille, a signature of Carrozzeria Riva, set it apart from its contemporaries. The design of the Fiat Monza echoed the revered lines of the Cisitalia 202, reflecting the era’s fascination with sleek, aerodynamic forms. Carrozzeria Riva’s craftsmanship was not limited to Fiat chassis. They also applied their design principles to an Alfa Romeo chassis based on the 6C 2500 SS, resulting in the creation of the “La Serenissima” model. This further solidified Riva’s reputation for excellence in automotive design, showcasing their ability to transform both Fiat and Alfa Romeo platforms into masterpieces of elegance and style. Today, the Fiat 1400 Monza holds a place of honor in automotive history, symbolizing the ingenuity and artistic vision of its creators. Its legacy is preserved in Brazil, where it continues to be admired by enthusiasts and collectors. The Fiat 1400 Monza remains a testament to the golden age of Italian automotive design, reflecting the timeless appeal and innovative spirit of Carrozzeria Riva.
