Pnm, ~w®o 55 MMMwm earn w s■> m 3 i Lingotto, a suburb of Turin, Italy, stands the giant Fiat Factory pictured above. At a little distance are green hills of remarkable beauty, dotted with chateaux villas, vineyards and gardens., The whir of the wheels of industry is therefore contrasted agreeably with the peaceful calm or a quiet countryside. There may be larger factories than Fiat, but not one which approaches it in genius of design nor in thoroughness of detail, for here are jealously guarded the traditions which have made the name Fiat famous on road and track since 1899. A feature of the factory, which is duplicated nowhere else in the World, is the wonderful Aerial Test Track, 100 feet above the level of the ground. It is 78 feet wide and nearly of a mile round. On the straightaway, it is protected by a rampart 5 feet high. This is increased to 10 feet on the banked turns where, to sustain cars at high speed, the track rises sharply 20 feet from the inside rim. Production of Fiat Cars commences with the first forgings on the bottom floor and ends when the body is fitted on the topmost range of the factory. All day long the test track presents a scene of well-ordered, but strenuous activity. Sports cars travel at speed high up, luxurious limousines more serenely lower down, , and lower still truck chassis. All tests are conducted under the ceaseless vigil of Fiat Engineers and adjustments made immediately where necessary in the workshops conveniently situated under the ramparts. Thus all that has been learned in winning classic races, hill climbs, endurance and economy tests, is given practical expression in the Fiat car designed for the use and enjoyment of Fiat owners throughout the World. SM m Fiat is the only car which presents the things most prized by motorists at a low cost.
