The production 202-series berlinetta, also powered by a 60-hp Fiat 1100 engine, received a very sleek body designed by Pinin Farina. That car caused a sensation and was immediately hailed as a design icon, which took it from the routes of the 1948 Mille Miglia to the picture rails of the New York Museum of Modern Art in 1951, via the Concorso d’Eleganzo Villa d’Este and the Palazzo del Arte in Milan. Indeed, from its first appearance to the present day, the Cisitalia 202 continues to be displayed as artwork, akin to the Mona Lisa. But, just like some great work of art from the Renaissance studios, it trails in its stylish wake the inevitable mysteries surrounding its origins and the identities of its true creators, including Alfredo Vignale.
