 History:
Founded by Edoardo Bianchi in 1885 and now remembered primarily as a bicycle manufacturer. was also active in passenger car manufacturer from 1899. Bianchis were in general high-end luxury cars. made with high attention to detail. The company's factory in Abruzzi was destroyed by bombing during World War II. Edoardo Bianchi himself died in 1946 in a car accident. and the ownership of the firm passed to his son. Giuseppe. Even though a new. modern facility was constructed inDesio after the war. economic conditions forced Giuseppe not to resume passenger car production. but rather to focus on bicycles. nbsp;motorcycles and commercial vehicles.  Bianchi bicycles are still manufactured.  The first car to be produced by the new company was the Bianchina. whose name was a tribute to Edoardo Bianchi's first 1899 car. The Bianchina was based on Fiat 500 mechanicals – with its two-cylinder. air-cooled engine mounted in the rear – but featured a completely new stylish body designed by Luigi Rapi. who was in charge of Fiat's special body unit and helped to set up production in Desio. With many premium design and equipment features. the Bianchina was an upscale city car. positioned above the Fiat 500 in the market. Marketed as a "second vehicle in the household". and a luxurious "recreational vehicle". also being targeted at affluent middle-class women. it mirrored the increasing affluence in Italian society.

The first Bianchina rolled from the production lines in Desio on September 11. 1957 and had the unusual body style of a two-door landaulet. called "Trasformabile". It remained the sole body style until 1960. when a two-door "Cabriolet" full convertiblewas introduced. followed by a three-door estate version. the "Panoramica" and a two-door saloon. the "Berlina". Finally. two van versions were launched: one resembling a two-seater version of the Panoramica. and another. with a raised and expanded cargo section.
