With over 1.2 million units sold over a 17 years production run, the A112 has been the most successful model wearing the long-discontinued Autobianchi badge. And for good reasons.
Small, cheap to run, yet stylish, the #Autobianchi #A112 was tailor-made for the Italian market, which embraced it right away. By the time the upmarket Elegant and the sporty #Abarth joined the range, in 1971, Autobianchi had already built over 200.000 A112s, and yearly sales for the Milanese brand peaked at nearly 114.000 units in 1973, the year of the A112's first restyling.
Production of the A112 at Autobianchi's Desio factory ended in early 1986, one year after the presentation of the stylish, innovative Y10, which would be the last ever model to wear the Autobianchi badge.
