The Topolino was an automobile model manufactured by Fiat from 1937 to 1955.
The Topolino (the Italian name for Mickey Mouse, meaning "little mouse") was the name given to the first Fiat 500 and was one of the smallest cars in the world at the time of its production. Launched in 1937, three models were produced until 1955 all with minor mechanical and cosmetic changes. Nearly 520,000 models of the Topolino were sold. In 1955 the mid size rear wheel drive Fiat 600 was launched by Fiat that would become the design basis for the new Fiat 500, the 500 Nuova (often called bambino). the 500 Nuova is often mistaken as the only model 500 Fiat.
