IN THE EARLY 1950S THE COMPANY WAS BUILDING REFRIGERATORS. MOTOR SCOOTERS AND SMALL THREE-WHEELED TRUCKS. ISO'S OWNER. RENZO RIVOLTA. DECIDED HE WOULD LIKE TO BUILD A SMALL CAR FOR MASS DISTRIBUTION. BY 1952 THE ENGINEERS ERMENEGILDO PRETI AND PIERLUIGI RAGGI HAD DESIGNED A SMALL CAR THAT USED THE MOTORCYCLE ENGINE OF THE ISO MOTO 200 AND NAMED IT ISETTA—AN ITALIAN DIMINUTIVE MEANING LITTLE ISO]THE ISETTA CAUSED A SENSATION WHEN IT WAS INTRODUCED TO THE MOTORING PRESS IN TURIN IN NOVEMBER 1953 IT WAS UNLIKE ANYTHING SEEN BEFORE. SMALL (ONLY 2. 29 M (7. 5 FT) LONG BY 1. 37 M (4. 5 FT) WIDE) AND EGG-SHAPED. WITH BUBBLE-TYPE WINDOWS. THE ENTIRE FRONT END OF THE CAR HINGED OUTWARDS TO ALLOW ENTRY. IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH. THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER WERE TO EXIT THROUGH THE CANVAS SUNROOF. THE STEERING WHEEL AND INSTRUMENT PANEL SWUNG OUT WITH THE SINGLE DOOR. AS THIS MADE ACCESS TO THE SINGLE BENCH SEAT SIMPLER. THE SEAT PROVIDED REASONABLE COMFORT FOR TWO OCCUPANTS. AND PERHAPS A SMALL CHILD. BEHIND THE SEAT WAS A LARGE PARCEL SHELF WITH A SPARE WHEEL LOCATED BELOW. A HEATER WAS OPTIONAL. AND VENTILATION WAS PROVIDED BY OPENING THE FABRIC SUNROOF. CALL OUR SALES TEAM TODAY TO DISCUSS THIS RARE FIND!DISCLOSURE ITEMSIN FULL DISCLOSURE.
