The Fiat 850T was a small commercial vehicle , produced between 1964 and 1976 by the Turin-based carmaker Fiat.
History
The Fiat 850T was a replacement for the Fiat 600T model, using the innovations that had been introduced with the Fiat 850 model on the 100 series engines the 600T used the 767 cm³ engine from the Fiat 600 Multipla .
Fiat had launched the 600T in 1962 , a van derived as an engine and gearbox from the 600 Multipla D 750 cc. The choice was dictated by the success achieved by some van versions made by body shops such as OM , Coriasco and Fissore. With the release of the Fiat 850 as early as May 1964, there was a need to update the 600T's bodywork with some aesthetic modifications ; the 850T version was added to the original 750 cc model using the gearbox and the engine of the new Fiat 850 just presented.
The seven- seat windowed version with a four- light front was called the Fiat 850 Familiare in some markets. The name was chosen to present the model as a family and work version of the Fiat 850 exactly as the Fiat 600 Multipla was for the Fiat 600 .
The displacement was 843 cm³ with a power of 34 hp . In the seventies the car adopted, first on the Family and then also on the 850T, an engine of the same family but with a displacement increased to 903 cm³ (derived from that of the Fiat 127 ) with the same power for the 850T, but raised to 45 hp for the family.

The bodywork of the new 600T and 850T presented in May 1964 differed from the 600T first series essentially for the front only, now with a rectangular grid in place of the previous hexagonal one, for the lengthening of the cab floor of 5 centimeters and 'adoption of the wheel rims of the Fiat 850 sedan (previously the 600 Multipla were used) and for other details.
A boxed version was also set up with tip-up sides. The 600T remained in production at the OM Suzzara plant until 1969 . The 850T was produced until 1976, when it was replaced by the Fiat 900T .It was also produced in Yugoslavia under license from Zastava .
