The Fiat Dino was introduced as a 2-seater Spider at theTurin Motor Showin October 1966;a2+2Coupé version, built on a 270mm (10.6in) longerwheelbase, bowed a few months later at theGeneva Motor Showin March 1967.The two bodies showed very different lines, as they had been designed and were manufactured for Fiat by two different coachbuilders: the Spider byPininfarina, and the Coupé byBertone—where it had been sketched out byGiorgetto Giugiaro. Curiously the Spider type approval identified it as a 2+1 seater.The Spider had poorer interior trim than the Coupé, below par for its class: the dashboard was covered in vinyl, the metal-spoke steering wheel had a plastic rim, and the interior switchgear was derived from cheaper Fiat models.After a few months this issue was addressed, and Spiders produced after February 1967 had a wood-rimmed steering wheel as well as a wood trim on the dashboard like the sister Coupé car had since the beginning.Option lists for both models were limited to radio, metallic paint, leather upholstery, and for the Spider a vinyl-coveredhardtopwith roll-bar style stainless steel trim.
The car was offered with an all-aluminiumDOHC2.0L V6, coupled to a 5-speedmanual transmission. The same 2.0-litre engine was used in mid-engined, Ferrari-builtDino 206 GT, which was introduced in pre-production form at the 1967 Turin Motor Show and went on sale in 1968. Fiat quoted 160PS (118kW; 158hp) for the Fiat Dino, while in 1967 Ferrari—presenting the first prototype of the Dino 206 GT—claimed 180hp (130kW) despite both engines were made by Fiat workers in Turin on the same production line, without any discrimination as to their destination. Jean-Pierre Gabriel in "Les Ferraris de Turin" notes that, "La declaration de Ferrari ne reposait sur aucun fondament technique"—Ferrari's statement had no technical basis.[7]The real reason for this difference was a mistake in between quotes made in SAE and BHP power output.
