The Fiat S76 was designed in 1911 to beat a speed record held by the Blitzen Benz.
A huge 4 cylinder engine (30L, 300 hp), originally designed to propel hot air balloons, could send this car to almost 200 km/h.
Two units were built, and this one comes from the National Motor Museum of Beaulieu. It is nicknamed "The Beast of Turin"...
Seen during Rétromobile 2016 in Paris, France.
