Fiat 850 Vanessa Ghia

The Fiat 850 Vanessa, designed by a young Giugiaro, released at the 1966 Turin Motorshow, was a car designed specifically for female drivers.

Vehicle Overview

The Fiat Vanessa was built by Carrozzeria Ghia using the Fiat 850 Idromatic mechanicals (including automatic transmission) it featured by no means ridiculous ideas, including a baby seat that folded down from the rear backrest with a separate side entrance (useful for shopping, too) alongside, separate front seats with decorous swivelling cushions (claimed to ease use when wearing a miniskirt!) and elegantly articulated safety backrests, a host of padded drawers and cubicles for makeup, umbrellas, handbag and the like, and a commodious carpet-lined boot in the front. Designed by a young Giorgetto Giugiaro, the Fiat 850 Vanessa by Ghia remained a prototype.
