It was created on the basis of the rather conservative Fiat 1500 C by the Turin body specialists Ghia using a Gilco-tubular frame (Gilberto Colombo). With a shortened body and increased output to 49 kW (67 hp), the coupé reached a respectable top speed of 180 km/h. Improvements during the four-year construction period then increased the engine output to up to 62 kW (84 hp).
