Autobianchi - Autobianchi Bianchina
The Autobianchi Bianchina was the first model of car made by the new restructured Autobianchi company and was first shown in 1957. These were basically remodelled versions of the Fiat 500, which came at a higher price. The Bianchina came in various bodywork options of a saloon (Berlina), Convertible (Transformabile), a Cabriolet which was fully convertible, Station wagon (Panoramica) and van (Furgoncino). For marketing in France only, after about 7 years of production (from 1965) there was the Autobianchi Lutece (the Berlina saloon), Autobianchi Texane and the open topped Autobianchi Eden Roc. Production of the Bianchina continued to 1970.
