Fiat 850 Familiare
The Fiat 850T was a commercial vehicle, produced between 1964 and 1976 from Turin carmaker Fiat, Fiat 600T as a substitute of the model, using the innovations that were introduced with the model "850" engine of the "100 Series" (the 600T used the 747cc engine of the "Fiat 600 Multipla")
The windowed version with seven seats twin-headlamp face was called Fiat 850 Family ("Kombi" in some markets). The name was chosen to present the model version as family and work exactly like the Fiat 850 "Fiat 600 Multipla" it was for the Fiat 600.
Fiat launched the 600 in 1962 T van, which was derived as the engine and transmission from the 600 Multipla D 750cc. The choice was dictated by the success of some versions box bodies carried out by bodies such as OM, Coriasco and Fissore.
With the release of the Fiat 850 as early as May of 1964, there was a need to update with some cosmetic changes to the bodywork of the 600 T; also was added to the version 850 T using the gearbox and the engine of the new Fiat 850 has just been presented.
The displacement was 843cc with power 34cv. In the seventies, the car adopted before the family and then also in the van, a motor of the same family but displacement increased to 903cc (derived from the Fiat 127), always with the same power output.
The body of the new 600 and 850 T 600 T differed from the first series basically only for the front, now with a rectangular grid instead of the previous hexagonal in shape, for the elongation of the cab floor 5 inches and the adoption of wheel rims of the Fiat 850 sedan (previously used were those of the 600 Multipla) and other details.
It was also set up a Cassette version with removable sides. The 600 T remained in production at the plant OM Suzzara until 1969. 850 The T was produced until 1976, when it was replaced by the Fiat 900T.
Fiat 850T was derived from a draisine railway engine, Fiat 500. Compared to the van, the dandy horse had body-faced or double-cab. The engine was the 499.5 cm ³ of the New Fiat 500 Giardiniera.
