Autobianchi Primula

The Autobianchi Primula was a small car (supermini) from the Italian automaker, Autobianchi (a subsidiary of the Fiat group), built from 1964 to 1970. It was notable as Fiat's first ever automobile with the front-wheel drive, transverse engine setup, as well as the first Fiat group car with rack and pinion steering. Primulas were built in the Autobianchi factory in Desio and were priced comparably to the Austin/Morris 1100 models built in Italy by Innocenti.
