In 1925, the 509 launch was supported by Fiat with the creation of a company (SAVA) which financed the payment by instalments. Finally it could declare the car was good for everyone, even though in reality the majority of the population was still using the bicycle or motorcycle.
The car shown in the museum has the dickey seat in the tail, playfully called "the mother in law's seat".
The car, still in original condition, was bought in 1930 by the Counts Cavazzocca of Verona, and after several owners it came back in 1979, when acquired by the museum, to its mother town.
