FactFiat built as few as 3 examples of the 10 HP before killing it off within the same year, 1901.
The Fiat 10 HP was the fifth Fiat model, built in 1901 and, with the 8 HP, replacing the 6 HP as an evolution of it (both designed by Faccioli, on the same technology). The seating changed from the 6 HP's vis-à-vis to a Phaeton with two rows of seats, a steering wheel instead of a tiller bar was standard, and it had a two-cylinder petrol engine of 1082 cc with two valves per cylinder making 10 PS, a three-speed manual and chain drive to the rear wheels; the standard car cost 9,000 lire. Probably because of the heavier weight's higher consumption it was not a success: only 3 or 5 were built, depending on the source, and the 12 HP replaced it and the 8 HP in 1901. Top speed 45 km/h (28 mph); wheelbase 69 in, length 111 in, curb weight 2,535 lb.

Owning one
We don’t estimate running costs for a car like this. What it costs depends on its condition, its specialist and how it is driven, and an average would mislead.

In 1974 Alfa built a one-off on this Spider: a Porsche-style solid rear window and lift-out roof panels, fewer than 2,000 made, the only Spider ever with a part-solid roof.
Over 100,000 people voted to name this car "Duetto" — but a chocolate-snack maker had already trademarked the word, and a Milan court ruling forced Alfa to sell it as the Spider 1600 instead.
After nearly 25 years of manual-only Spiders, the final Series 4 cars quietly added something Alfa purists never expected: an optional automatic transmission.
The mid-80s Spider's Quadrifoglio Verde trim went all-in on a single look: blood-red carpets and grey leather with red stitching, and it only ever came in three exterior colors.
This Spider was built not by Alfa but by Pininfarina itself, on a platform shared with General Motors.
The 916 Spider's strongest naturally aspirated engine, the 192 PS 3.0 12V Busso V6, was never offered in its GTV coupe twin.
The Frogeye had no boot lid at all — owners reached the spare wheel by tilting the seats forward into the dark cavity behind, a ritual they likened to potholing.
The Fairlady 2000's SR311 update came with a five-speed manual gearbox in 1967 — a genuinely unusual spec for any production car of that era.
