The Fiat 806 Grand Prix adopted significant innovations for its time. The Fiat 806 was, in fact,  the “progenitor” of the modern Formula One racing cars. Developed and produced by FIAT, the Italian automobiles  manufacturer, in 1927, it could be considered the first Grand Prix car ever built before.  Thanks to its 180 HP 12 cylinders engine, the Fiat 806 was able to reach and even exceed the speed of 240 Km/h. However, the most important innovations were made in the development of the chassis, mechanics and bodywork. The engine and gearbox unit was, in fact, located between the two chassis bars in order to optimize the performance and the drivability.
