History
Following its introduction in 1966 with a publicity stunt, with Fiat filming the dropping of the car by parachute from a plane,[6][7] the 124 won the 1967 European Car of the Year.[8] As a clean-sheet design by Oscar Montabone, the chief engineer responsible for its development,[9] the 124 used only the all-synchromesh gear box from the Fiat 1500.[9] The 124 featured a spacious interior, advanced coil spring rear suspension, disc brakes on all wheels and lightweight construction.
Engines
Power came from a 1.2 L (1,197 cc) Fiat OHV inline-four engine. Also, there were the 124 Special with a 1,438 cc OHV engine and the 124 Special T with 1,438 cc and 1,592 cc twin cam OHC engines. The twin cams are connected to a four-speed and five-speed gearbox.

A 5-door station wagon variant (named 124 Familiare on its home market) as well as the 124 Sport Spider variants debuted at the 48th Turin Motor show in November 1966.[10] A few months later, at the March 1967 Geneva Motor Show, the 124 Sport Coupé completed the range.[11] The two Sport models were powered by an all-new 1.4-litre dual overhead camshaft engine producing 90 DIN-rated PS (66 kW; 89 hp) at 6,500 rpm.
Foreign production
Throughout the 1960s and 1970s, Fiat sought to extend its worldwide reach by entering into various collaborative agreements with smaller manufacturers (mostly in developing nations) by licensing the 124 design following its discontinuation in mainstream Western European markets. The best known (and most produced) of all the 124 derivates is the Russian-built Lada, which has to date, sold over 15 million units.
