Iva Inc. €19.95 After the Suez Crisis in 1956, H.T. Pigozzi, president of Simca, understood that it was necessary to add a small and economical car to its range. A collaboration was started with Fiat, which was designing the 850, but the agreement was not finalized and the two companies each continued on their own path. The 1000 was presented at the Paris Motor Show in October 1961 and soon became one of the pillars of Simca production. The engine was a 944cc 4-cylinder, which gave a power of 45hp. The 1000 range was very long-lived and was developed in many versions and variants, with engines reaching up to 1118cc for the non-sporting versions. The 1000 range remained in production until June 1978. The sports Rallye series, a true icon of 1970s motoring, deserves a separate chapter.
