1959 Fiat-OSCA 1500 Concept by Bertone

The end of the fifties was characterized by a strong American influence on styling, which was felt in the automobile industry and all production sectors. The American taste for tail "fins" spread to the Italian master coachbuilders in the car world.


At the Turin Motor Show in 1959, the Fiat-Osca 1500 was presented. The car showed the trends of its day, with its fashionable side cuts and a slim, streamlined profile, an overall style reminiscent of the design from across the pond.
