- "Cinquecento" can also refer to the earlier Fiat 500
The Fiat Cinquecento is a city car released by Fiat in late 1991 to replace the 126. It was available with two choices of engine, a 704 cc OHV two-cylinder unit with 30 bhp DIN (22 kW), or a 903 cc OHV four-cylinder unit with 41 bhp DIN (30 kW). In 1993, the 903 cc engine's capacity was reduced to 899 cc for tax reasons, with the unit now producing 39 PS ECE (29 kW). In 1995 the Sporting version was introduced, featuring a 54 hp (40 kW) ECE 1.1 L FIRE engine, which gave birth to a rallying trophy and a Group A Kit-Car version.
