Boxy sedan
the original fiat was a boxy sedan on a 95-in. Wheelbase with a wide rectangular horizontal-bar grille and 1.2-litre engine. A station wagon was soon added. For 1968 the engine was expanded to 1.4 liters; Later it grew in size again to 1.6 litres. In 1969 the sedans front end was changed, with quad headlights and parking lights that were integrated into the front bumper. A four-speed manual gearbox was standard, but automatic transmission became an option by 1972.
sporty coupe and convertible
a two-seat pininfarina-designed spider convertible and 2 + 2 sport coupe joined the 124 series in 1967, with a twin-overhead-cam, 1.4-litre engine. The spider, which had a low, wide grille, 90-in. Wheelbase and five-speed gearbox,
was the fastest 124, capable of reaching 109 mph. Later the spidercoupe engine grew, first to 1.6 and later to 1.8 litres, and automatic transmission became optional.
