Following the success of the Mercedes 170 SD from Automotores Fangio, the first reference in Slot Classic Transport, we present the second reference in this line: the Alfa Romeo 2 Autotutto minibus, with “Assistenza Corse” livery is an exquisite model from Slot Classic and will enhance any collection.

The Alfa Romeo Autotutto was unveiled at the 1954 Turin Motor Show with a distinctly avant-garde design. It featured independent suspension on all four wheels, a mid-mounted engine, and front-wheel drive. This allowed for a lowered rear cargo floor, facilitating access to the cargo area and increasing interior space. This was key to its success and opened up a whole range of bodywork possibilities.

The same engine family used in the Giulietta was employed: a 1.3-liter, four-cylinder, in-line gasoline engine with double overhead camshafts that produced 35 hp and propelled the Autotutto to 97 km/h. Alternatively, there was a two-cylinder, two-stroke diesel engine with a Roots-type supercharger, created in Austria by AVL, which delivered 30 hp and a top speed of 75 km/h.

The Romeo 2 appeared in 1957/58, without significant changes. It came standard with easy access to the cargo area via a large rear door and a side door on the passenger side. It was primarily used for government agencies, ambulances, police, the military, etc.

It was manufactured in Italy as a minibus and used by the “protezione Civile,” a government organization providing support in the event of natural disasters. These types of vehicles had a tough life, so very few have survived to this day; this is one of them. Thanks to the meticulous and respectful restoration work it underwent, we can now enjoy its friendly and functional 1950s design.
