Moretti 600 Giardinetta Accossato

Automobiles

The Moretti 600 Giardinetta Accossato was a small estate car on the Moretti 600 that the carrozzieri-italiani.com listing dates to 1950, with a body by the coachbuilder Accossato and a design by Giovanni Michelotti. The page says it was shown at the 1950 Turin Auto Show and joined a station wagon body with compact dimensions, for buyers who wanted practical yet pleasing cars. Michelotti gave it flowing lines, the body used lightweight materials, and the car was powered by an inline-four engine on a simple chassis with a suspension that balanced comfort and handling. The listing says only a limited number was made and that surviving examples are recorded in private collections and institutional archives. It names no fuel and no engine class.
