The
Fiat 241
is a van produced by
Fiat
between 1965 and 1974. It has a payload over 1400
kg and was available in various formats like truck, van and bare chassis after the production of the
1100T pickup
ended a year ago.
The Fiat 241 was offered in parallel to the
Fiat 238
. The 241 is a rear-wheel drive, as the 238 was front-wheel drive. The engine in the 241 was centrally located in the cab and not like the 238 under the passenger bench. Thus, it was only two-seater. It had two engine options: petrol (1481 cc OHV, derived from 1500C) from the
Fiat passenger car 124
producing 51
hp. with a 4 speed gearbox and diesel (1.9ltr, 1,895 cc, the same as
Campagnola
producing 47
bhp).
With independent front suspension with coil springs and semi-elliptic springs at the rear supported by telescopic dampers and anti-roll bars at both ends.
