Vehicle Overview
The Fiat 1500E Berlina Vignale, designed by Giovanni Michelotti, made its debut at the 1950 Turin Auto Salon at the Vignale Stand, marking a significant entry into the luxury car segment for Fiat. Powered by a robust 1.5-liter inline-six engine, the 1500E delivered 47 horsepower, facilitating a top speed of 80 mph (130 km/h). This engine was coupled with a four-speed manual transmission, ensuring a balanced mix of performance and drivability. Visually, the Fiat 1500E Berlina Vignale exuded elegance and sophistication, characteristics typical of Michelotti’s design language. Its smooth lines and refined styling cues were complemented by a distinctive front grille, which enhanced its presence on the road and underscored its luxury status. Available in both two-door and four-door configurations, the Fiat 1500E Berlina catered to different preferences and practical needs. The four-door Berlina, in particular, offered a longer wheelbase compared to its two-door counterpart, translating into enhanced legroom for rear-seat passengers. This feature made the four-door version more popular among buyers seeking additional comfort and space. Inside, the Fiat 1500E Berlina Vignale boasted a spacious interior that further emphasized its luxury credentials. The cabin was meticulously crafted to provide a comfortable and upscale driving experience, showcasing Fiat’s commitment to combining performance with refined aesthetics.
