1961 Fiat Jolly 500 Navigation
The Jolly 500 was introduced in 1957 and carried coachwork by Ghia. They were powered by a two-cylinder engine with 16.5 horsepower and weighed just 1050 lbs. Top speed was 59 mph and gas mileage was in the neighborhood of 42 miles-per-gallon. The Jolly was not a very practical vehicle. Its primary purposes were for recreation such as being driven at the beach. Their lightweight and compact bodies made them suitable for transportation on yachts.
