The Fiat 128 is a transverse front-engine, front wheel drive small family car, produced in Italy in model years 1969-85, Fiat Argentina 1971-90, by Seat in Spain as the 3P 1976-80 and in Yugoslavia as Fiat and Zatsava 1971-08. With two- or four-door sedan, three- or five-door station wagon as well as two- or three-door coupé, in the range.

With engineering by Dante Giacosa and engine design by Aurelio Lampredi the 128 was noted for its relatively roomy passenger and cargo volume

Front-wheel drive had previously been introduced to small, inexpensive cars by BMC, firstly with the Mini in 1959 and then with the larger 1100/1300 series in 1962. During the mid-1960s, Fiat set about designing a new car to compete with the latter. While the Fiat featured a transverse-mounted engine with unequal-length drive shafts and an innovative clutch release mechanism enabling the engine and gearbox to sit side by side, without sharing lubricating fluid. Cars were powered by either a 1.1 litre Fiat SOHC or a 1.3 litre S4

The 124 was given a facelift for the 1972, featuring a revised grille. 1974 saw the launch of the 128 Special, which used the Rally engine in a four-door sedan body. In 1975 the 128 3P (3-door) Berlinetta replaced the Sport Coupé. In 1976, the range received new bumpers, rectangular headlights, tail lights and dashboard as well as modifications to the engines.
