The derivatives of the Fiat 600 classic car

The Fiat 600 derivatives play a remarkable role in automotive history and are closely linked to the development of the original Fiat 600. These modifications and further developments, which were produced both by Fiat itself and by other manufacturers under licence, expanded the potential of the small car and led to a large number of models that became very important in various countries. The Fiat 600 derivatives shaped the automotive industry on a global scale and contributed to the 600 becoming an international phenomenon.

1. SEAT 600 (1957-1973)

The SEAT 600 was one of the most successful licensed variants of the Fiat 600 and was produced by the Spanish company SEAT (Sociedad Española de Automóviles de Turismo). Production began in 1957 and continued until 1973. The SEAT 600 played a decisive role in the motorisation of Spain in the post-war years and became a symbol of economic upturn and social mobility.

The SEAT 600 was so popular in Spain that it was often known simply as the ‘Seiscientos’. It was the first car for many Spanish families and demand was so high that waiting times to buy a new SEAT 600 were often several months. During its production period, the model was further developed and various versions were created, including the SEAT 600 D with a more powerful engine and improved equipment.

2. Zastava 750 (1955-1985)

In Yugoslavia, the Fiat 600 was also produced under licence by the Zastava company. The model was produced under the name Zastava 750 and was an extremely popular vehicle in Eastern Europe. Production began in 1955 and continued until 1985, making the model one of the longest-lived Fiat 600 derivatives.

The Zastava 750, nicknamed ‘Fića’ locally, was a symbol of progress and the economic upturn in Yugoslavia. It was the best-selling car in the region and remained the standard vehicle for families for decades. Technically, the Zastava 750 was very similar to the Fiat 600, but there were several improvements over time, including larger engines and modernised interiors. Even after the end of production, the Zastava 750 could be seen on the roads in many countries of the former Yugoslavia for a long time.

3. Fiat 600 Jolly (1958-1969)

Another notable derivative of the Fiat 600 was the Fiat 600 Jolly, an open-top beach version developed by the Ghia design company. The Jolly was primarily intended as a leisure vehicle and was often bought by wealthy customers, including many celebrities and hoteliers. It was characterised by its distinctive design: no doors, an open roof with a sun canopy and wickerwork seats.

The Fiat 600 Jolly was mostly used in holiday regions such as the Italian Riviera, on the Greek islands or on the Côte d'Azur. Although it was never produced in large numbers, the Jolly still has a high collector's value today and is coveted as a curious and charming vehicle in the classic car scene.

4. Puch 500/650 (1957-1975)

In Austria, the Fiat 600 was produced by Steyr-Daimler-Puch under the designation Puch 500 and later Puch 650. Although the body of the vehicle was almost identical to the Fiat 600, the Puch 500/650 differed considerably in technical terms. Steyr-Daimler-Puch developed its own engine for the vehicle, a two-cylinder boxer engine, which was characterised by its robustness and durability.

The Puch 500/650 was particularly popular in Austria, Germany and Switzerland, where it was a direct competitor to the Volkswagen Beetle. The Puch 650, which was produced from 1962, had a larger and more powerful engine than its predecessor and enjoyed great popularity as a small but powerful vehicle.

5. Fiat 850 (1964-1973)

Although the Fiat 850 was not directly a derivative of the Fiat 600, it can be seen as a further development. It was designed as a larger and more modern version of the Fiat 600 and was produced from 1964. The Fiat 850 was available in various body variants, including a saloon, a coupé and a spider (convertible).

With its 843 cc water-cooled engine and an output of up to 47 hp, the Fiat 850 was more powerful and faster than the Fiat 600, but offered similar driving characteristics and reliability. The 850 became another bestseller for Fiat and contributed significantly to the international success of the brand.

Conclusion

The Fiat 600 derivatives are an essential part of the history of the automobile. They show how the simple and innovative design of the Fiat 600 served as the basis for a variety of vehicle types that enjoyed great success in different markets and countries. From practical family cars to leisure vehicles and iconic beach cars, the derivatives of the Fiat 600 reflect the diversity and adaptability of this design.

Today, these derivatives are valuable collector's items and help to preserve the heritage of one of the most important small cars of the 20th century. The Fiat 600 and its variants are a symbol of progress and the democratisation of mobility in Europe and the world.
