1984 Autobianchi A112 Abarth 70 HP French registration Series: ZAA112B0001532841 Autobianchi: this new brand became the innovative branch of Fiat, experimenting with all kinds of technologies and public reactions. In 1964, the Primula adopted a generalized mechanical system, since almost all manufacturers adopted it after that: the front transverse engine is with the gearbox in its extension, 4 disc brakes, a hydraulically assisted clutch and a tailgate. The trial was a success, and Fiat also set about modernizing its range. In 1969, the A111 and A112 were introduced, while the Autobianchi brand came under the control of Lancia. The Autobianchi A112 was designed in 1969 to compete with the Austin Mini. It mimicked the Mini's architecture, with a front-mounted four-cylinder engine in a transverse position. An Abarth version was also created to compete with the Cooper. First fitted with a 982 cm3 engine developing 58 hp, it was followed in 1976 by a 1050 cm3 with 70 hp. Power in itself isn't enormous, but the A112 weighed just 700 kilos, giving it an excellent power-to-weight ratio. It reached speeds of up to 164 km/h. The Abarth version of the A112 did indeed have the sporty character intended by its illustrious tuner. The example we are offering for sale is sound and drives well. 1984 Autobianchi A112 Abarth 70 HP French registration Series: ZAA112B0001532841 Autobianchi: this new brand became the innovative branch of Fiat, experimenting with all kinds of technologies and public reactions.
