FactFiat took the 501's platform, dropped in a bigger 2296cc four, and got 80 km/h out of a 1919 sedan.
The Fiat 505, built between 1919 and 1925 (30,000 produced) in 4-door sedan, torpedo, cabriolet and truck versions, was based on the same basic design as the four-cylinder 501 but with a larger engine and bigger exterior dimensions: a 2296 cc (30 hp) straight-four giving a top speed of 80 km/h (50 mph), a 4-speed manual, wheelbase 305 cm (120.1 in) and curb weight 1,550 kg (3,417 lb). It followed the 2B and preceded the 507.

A Trabant 601 won its class at the 1970 Monte Carlo Rally, with a second 601 right behind it in second.
The 600 was a stopgap: the P50's body over the 601's mechanicals, and for a while its estate was built alongside the new 601 saloon.
The G80 Sport brought a 370 PS twin-turbo 3.3 V6, a mesh grille and copper-tinted chrome with copper stitching to match.
The Vigor was sold only with a five-cylinder engine, an unusual configuration Honda used to fit a longer engine transversely under a short hood.
The GS/E coupe earned the nickname "German Charger" for its long hood, short deck stance borrowed from Detroit muscle cars.
This DeVille/Fleetwood was the first production car anywhere to mount its V8 sideways, Cadillac's front-drive gamble on the new C-body.
