FactOnly 4,400 of these were ever built — a genuinely scarce survivor from Fiat's late-1920s lineup.
The Fiat 525 was built between 1928 and 1931 (4,400 built) as a larger successor to the 512, in 4-door sedan, cabriolet and spider bodies, with a 3739 cc sidevalve straight-six of 69 hp (525, 1928–1929), modified a year after production began and renamed the 525 N; wheelbase 340 cm (133.9 in) for the 525 and 326 cm (128.3 in) for the 525 N, with a 4-speed manual. The 525 SS sports variant is catalogued separately.

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.

Photographs
Fiat built a genuine sports version of its stately 525 saloon — the 525 SS paired a hotter straight-six with a shortened chassis, years before 'SS' badges became a muscle-car cliche.

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.
