Every figure says what it counts.
| What is counted | Figure | Basis | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total model productionindividual car: the 130 HP known as "F2", winner of the 1907 Grand Prix of the ACF with Nazzaro (identity confirmed by Fiat heritage) | 11 | Factory production | Independently researched |
Independent counts (e.g. engine and colour) are never combined into a calculated figure. Surviving examples are never presented as original production.
History
In 1907 the car won the French Automobile Club Grand Prix at Dieppe with Nazzaro, averaging 113.612 km/h. The engine had overhead valves arranged at a 90-degree V angle.
Since 1957 it has been part of the collection of MAUTO, the National Car Museum in Turin, donated by Fiat. In 2021 the engine was restored to running order by the museum's Restoration Centre with funding from Fiat Heritage, and the car was guest of honour at the Trofeo Salvarola Terme concours, earning an honour mention for "Restoration with the highest symbolic value".
