FactFiat's wartime Tipo 70 saloon carried a complete electrical system back in 1915 — an advanced feature most cars of the era still did without.
The Fiat 70 was built between 1915 and 1920 (around a thousand, almost all for the Italian army) with a 2-litre straight-four engine producing 21 hp and a top speed of 70 km/h (43 mph); the car was quite advanced for its time, with a complete electrical system, a four-speed manual, wheelbase 107 in, length 150 in and curb weight 3,825 lb. It succeeded the Zero and was replaced by the 501.

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.
