The Fiat 131 Abarth was built on the basis of Fiat's two-door sedan. Abarth's work involved many interventions such as streamlining the body, implementing enlarged wheel arches, taking over air inlets on the bonnet and on the sides to optimize the cooling of the mechanics. The Fiat 131 Abarth used a longitudinally installed 4-cylinder in-line engine with a light metal cylinder head and 4 valves per cylinder. Built in 1976, he was deployed in the World Rally Championship, where he won three constructors' world championships, a FIA driver's cup and a driver's world championship. He took part in international competitions until he was replaced in 1982 by the Lancia brand vehicles.
