1991-1998 Fiat Cinquecento nominated by @INEEDNAWZZZ
Body Style: 3-door hatchback
Engines: 704cc I2, 899cc I4, 903cc I4, 1.1L I4
Power: 31 hp (704cc), 38 hp (899cc), 39 hp (903cc), 53 hp (1.1L)
Torque: 38 ft-lbs (704cc), 49 ft-lbs (899/903cc), 63 ft-lbs (1.1L)
Weight: 675-727 kg
Transmission: 4-speed manual, 5-speed manual
Drivetrain: Front-engine, front wheel drive
Additional Information: Built to replace the ageing 126, the Cinquecento (Italian for 500) was launched in 1991 and was the first Fiat to be built solely in Poland. Despite being dubbed the 'Nuova 500' in Italy, the smallest available engine was 704cc two-cylinder, which itself was only available in Poland due to legislation. Although it was a basic vehicle, options such as power windows, a sunroof (as well as a retractable canvas top) and air conditioning were available. Despite this, power steering was never offered.
In 1994, Fiat introduced the Sporting model, with a 53 BHP, 1.1 litre engine from the then-new base model Punto, along with a close-ratio 5-speed manual gearbox. Other changes include a front anti-roll bar, dropped ride height and 13" alloy wheels. Visual changes included colour-coded bumpers and mirrors, as well as a tachometer, sporty seats, leather steering wheel and shift knob, and red seatbelts. Abarth also offered an optional package which included new bumpers, wheels and interior options, however performance remained the same. Production of the Cinquecento ended in 1998, where it was succeeded by the Seicento.
