Fiat 522 C Viotti

Chassis

#002336

Designed by Mario Revelli de Beaumont the Fiat 522 is a “mid to high” range car produced from 1931 to 1933. It descended from the Fiat 520, the forefather of 6-cylinder Fiat cars.

Vehicle Overview

The Fiat 522 C Viotti: The 522, presented in 1931 at the IV Salone dell’Auto di Milano, was sold in three different versions, distinguished by different chassis’ lengths, each 522 C (short version), 522 L (long version) and 522 S Sport (sports version). The latter had a frame characterised by an intermediate wheelbase between the Fiat 522 C and the Fiat 522 L and was presented at the 1932 Geneva Motor Show. With this car and the Fiat 524, the Turin-based carmaker inaugurated a new logo, rectangular with a red background and gold letters. This logo was used between 1931 and 1932. The Fiat 522 C Viotti was made by Carrozzeria Viotti in Turin which was active from 1921 to 1964 and is known for its “tailor-made” cars. In the 20s it registered the patent for the “Clairalpax body”, using thin pillars in alpacca which allowed a substantial increase in the glass surfaces. The company is important for the history of the Italian automobile as it created the Fiat 1100 “Giardinetta,” based on a design by Mario Revelli de Beaumont. The Giardinetta, in 1946, participated in the birth of modern station wagons.
