ISO ISETTA - 1954

A remarkable car with a motor originating from a motor cycle, with four wheels (the two rear wheels are twin and appear as a single wheel). The car looks rather like a helicopter. Access for two people who are not very tall was through a large front door which was the whole of the front part of the car. These cars participated many times in the Mille Miglia where a special class was created for them: in 1955 the Isetta arrived with an average speed of about 80 km/hr! Begore handing over the rights to BMW (who fitted at 4 stroke, 298 cc motor) the car marked, in 1953, the motoring debut of Iso, which built GTs until the Seventies, and re-founded last year to produce, by 1994, a supercar designed by Gianpaolo Dallara.

Engine: 2 stroke single cylinder. Cubic capacity: 236 cc. Power: 9.5 hp. Maximum speed: 90 kph. Feed: induction.
