The Fiat 900T was a small van produced by the Italian automobile manufacturer Fiat between 1976 and 1985, replacing the similar Fiat 850T.[1] It was first presented in November 1976, at the Turin Show.[2] In the UK, it was sold as the Fiat Citivan.

While using many of the 850T's body panels, the roof was taller and the front clip was also redesigned. The taller roof also allowed for a larger front windshield, increasing in height by 6 cm (2.4 in).[2] The new front had rectangular headlamps and featured a new grille as well. The 900T was equipped with 12-inch wheels borrowed from the Fiat 126, albeit fitted with wider rims. The bumpers were also redesigned as was the interior, which sported the steering wheel from the contemporary Fiat 127 Special.[2] The 900T was available in a number of variants, including a seven-seat minibus (Pulmino in Italy), and the Shango camper van; British buyers could choose between the Amigo and Pandora campers. Typical bodystyles included a panel van, high-roof panel van, promiscuo (glazed van with rear seating), and the minibus. The van and promiscuo could also be had with a sliding side door or an additional rear driver's side door.[2]
