Again designed by Dante Giacosa, and again rear-engined,
the Fiat 850 was put on display in May of 1964. It had the same
engine as the smaller 600.
A year later the 850 Coupé (by Fiat) and the 850 Spider (by
Bertone) were introduced.
1968 was an important year for the 850: the Coupé and Spider
both got a 'bigger' engine (still 903cc) and different headlights,
while the saloon got a more powerful engine and became the Special.
Production of the 850 saloon and Coupé ended in 1971, the
Spider ended one year later.
