Moretti 1500 Berlinetta

Automobiles

The Moretti 1500 Berlinetta was a small-series coupé of 1961 that Moretti of Turin coachbuilt on the Fiat 1500 chassis, listed on carrozzieri-italiani.com as the Fiat 1500 Coupé Moretti. The site credits its design to Giovanni Michelotti and places it among the collaborations between Fiat and the coachbuilders of the early 1960s, with smooth contours and a compact silhouette. Mechanically it kept the Fiat 1500 rear-wheel-drive layout and independent front suspension and used a 4L inline-four engine, and the page says production data is limited and that the Berlinetta was a small production run, with surviving examples noted in private collections. Wikipedia lists a Fiat 1500 Moretti among the Fiat-based models of the former Italian maker Moretti, and the car is a different one from the later Moretti 1500SS.
