This summer, Autoworld in Brussels will be adorned in the colours of the tricolore in honour of the iconic Italian Fiat car brand.
The driving force behind the Italian car industry, the company is celebrating its 125th anniversary.
The expo at the museum, called “Fiat 125 Years – La Dolce Vita,” will highlight this milestone in style and features around 30 cars, showcasing the best Fiat models ever produced at the legendary Lignotto factory in Turin.
These range from magnificent pre-war models and the Topolino and Cinquecento, to the masterful Otto Vu and 2300 S.
A museum spokesman said, “Attention will be dedicated to scenography, ensuring that visitors are fully immersed in an Italian atmosphere of piazzas, pavement cafes, and ‘la dolce vita’.”
Additionally, a special Instagram corner will be available to capture memorable moments for visitors.
Among others, the following cars will be on display:
- Fiat 3 1/2 HP – 1899
- Fiat S57 14BIS racing car – 1914
- Fiat Fiat 500A Topolino – 1936
- Fiat Dino Spider – 1968
- Fiat 600 Multipla – 1950
At the same time as the Fiat celebration, a second exhibition will be launched – “Abarth 75 Years,” which celebrates 75 years of Abarth with around 15 cars on display in the pop-up zone.
The exhibition is made possible thanks to the support of the Abarth Works Museum in Lier.
These Abarth’s will be on display during the exhibition:
- Abarth OT 1300 Scorpione SS – 1970
- Abarth 124 GR4 – 1973
- 2300S Ghia Abarth
- Fiat 131 Abarth
Both expos will run until 1 September.
For younger guests, the “Kid’s Corner” invites children to participate in a Mini- Olympiad. After conquering five challenges, each participant will be rewarded with an ice cream. Moreover, children can unleash their creativity by designing their own Fiat and watch as it comes to life against the backdrop of an Italian landscape.
