FactThe Fiat 514 had a secret twin: Czech maker Walter built it under license as the "Walter Bijou" through the early 1930s.
The Fiat 514 was built between 1929 and 1932 (36,970 in total) as a small family car in 2- and 4-door sedan, cabriolet and 2-door spyder bodies (plus coupés, vans and long-wheelbase versions), with a 1438 cc sidevalve straight-four of 28 hp and a 4-speed manual, on a wheelbase of 256 cm (100.8 in); the Czech firm Walter built it under licence as the Walter Bijou. It followed the 503 and preceded the 515. The three sporting variants (S, CA "Coppa delle Alpi" and MM "Mille Miglia") are catalogued separately.

Rivals
Same body, same money, other badges — tap any card to flip.
It briefly served as senior sibling to Marquette, a GM companion brand cancelled after just one year.
Nissan hired former BMW engineers to help develop the 510's suspension, which is why period reviewers frequently compared its handling to the BMW 1600/2002.
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.
