Innocenti Cooper versus Autobianchi A 112 Abarth - the poisonous dwarfs (in the test at the time)

December 31, 2014 — Hans Joachim Moeller 42

They were compact and really fast in the hands of talented drivers, the Innocenti and Autobianchi Minis. As the Innocenti Mini Cooper 1300 and Autobianchi A 112 Abarth, they drove directly into the middle class in terms of performance, but cost considerably less and ran circles around large limousines thanks to their small dimensions and sporty chassis. Even the magazine 'hobby' could not resist their charm. This article reproduces the original wording of the comparative test from 1974 and shows the two "poison dwarves" in many historical pictures and in the sales literature.

Eight thousand in the exam - comparison of Audi, Citroën, Datsun, Fiat, Mini, Peugeot, Renault and Simca

September 28, 2013 — Heinz Kranz 69

In the winter of 1974/1975, the magazine 'hobby' compared eight compact cars from five countries in a meticulous test that required driving on the Nordschleife and the participation of eight test drivers: the Audi 50 competed against the Citroën Ami Super, Datsun Cherry, Fiat 127, Innocenti Mini, Peugeot 104, Renault 5 and Simca 1000 GLE and won hands down. The Datsun Cherry came second, but this was not the only surprise in the extensive comparison test. This article re-edits the findings of that time, showing the results in detail and the vehicles in many archive photos from back then.

Innocenti Mini De Tomaso - hot on curves

January 17, 2025 — Bruno von Rotz 46

Around 50 years ago, just under 70 hp was still enough for maximum driving pleasure, at least when it was packaged as compactly as in the Innocenti Mini De Tomaso. However, the indirect descendant of the Mini Cooper S also had some tangible advantages to offer and was certainly a practical car. But it certainly wasn't quiet and velvety. This driving report tells the story of the Innocenti Mini De Tomaso and shows it in current and historical images.
