The Fiat Type 3 is a vehicle built by FIAT from 1910 to 1921 . It is also known as "Fiat 20-30 HP". 

History

The "Type 3" was a car marketed in three series, the "Type 3", the "Type 3 A" and the "Type 3 Ter":The "Type 3", built from 1910 to 1912 , had installed an electrical system for the front and rear lights and the interior lighting. With a motor of 3969 cc of displacement disbursing a power of 32 hp . With 1322 copies manufactured.

The "3A" was built from 1912 to 1921 . It was only available with the Torpedo body . A bare-chassis version was also manufactured; the customers then had them bodied by trusted coachbuilders . Since 1915 it has been supplied with the electrical system. The model was equipped with an engine delivering a power of 40 hp that reached a speed of 80 km / h with a displacement of 4398 cm³ . The lighting was a magnet and had a change to four relationships. It was 4380 mm long  . It reached 80 km / h of speed maximum. It was produced in 2167 copies manufactured.

The "3Ter" was presented in 1912 and had the same displacement as the "3A" . The gearbox was four-speed. This version was produced at a reduced pace compared to 3A to meet the demands of the Royal Army . The updated model was in fact more compact and lighter, with a consequent improvement in performance. The specimen was often used for military purposes and was also supplied to foreign armies . It was manufactured until 1915 . It was 4070 mm long. Since 1913 a 45 hp enhanced version was launched that reached the maximum speed of 95 km / h , against the 90 of the standard series . It was manufactured with only 718 copies made.
