Fiat Spazio

* Many thanks to Bruno for making this post possible! *

After ranking third in 1988, the Fiat 127, named Spazio in Argentina, surprises the automotive world and takes the lead of the country’s sales charts in 1989. In fact, its accession to the throne marks a year of transition between the reign of the Renault 12, #1 from 1984 to 1988, and the Fiat Duna (a Fiat Uno sedan) which will dominate new car sales in Argentina for the next 5 years.
