Dear Friends,
we are proud to show you a very interesting preview of a new incoming release: the Fiat 806 Grand Prix 1/12 scale. We would like to show you some pictures of our new incoming scale model.
Historical Profile
The Fiat 806 Grand Prix adopted significant innovations for its time. In fact, the Fiat 806 was the “progenitor” of the modern Formula One racing cars. Developed and produced by FIAT, the Italian automobiles manufacturer, in 1927, it could be considered the first Grand Prix car ever built before. Thanks to its 180 HP 12 cylinders engine, the Fiat 806 was able to reach and even exceed the speed of 240 Km/h. However, the most important innovations were made in the development of the chassis, mechanics and bodywork. In fact, the engine and gearbox unit was located between the two chassis bars in order to optimize the performance and the drivability.
