Fiat has chosen to celebrate its 120th birthday at Geneva with a concept car called wait for it the 120. Well, it"s the Centoventi, but that"s the same thing in Italian. This is Fiat setting out its stall for future urban mass mobility. They"ve got previous for this after all, the original 500 got Italy moving after WWII. The difference this time around is that the car is electric and extremely customisable. Oh, and you won"t be propping the boot open to let in more air The car would only be produced in one colour (Henry Ford would be proud). Then it"d be up to the customer to select one of the four body colour wraps, four roof colours, four wheel trims and, you guessed it, four bumpers. Using Top Gear maths, that"s 256 colourways. The idea is that these choices wouldn"t all have to be made at the time of purchase you could wake up one morning and decide that it was time to explore number 23, to match your latest outfit. Given the flat surfaces of the car (shades of Citroen C4 Cactus, no?), Fiat says that reskinning would be a quick and cheap process.
