The Fiat 124 Spider (Type 348) is a sports car which was made by Mazda and sold by Fiat from 2016 until 2019. It is a two-seater roadster with a front-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout. The result of a partnership between Mazda and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA), the 124 Spider is largely based on the fourth-generation Mazda MX-5 roadster and was manufactured alongside the MX-5 at Mazda's factory in Hiroshima. The 124 Spider shares its platform, mechanicals, interior and top mechanism with the MX-5 but is differentiated by its exterior styling, a turbocharged FCA Multiair engine, retuned shock absorbers, and its nominally-increased length and cargo capacity over the MX-5. The 124 nameplate and exterior styling details recall the Pininfarina-designed Fiat 124 Sport Spider, manufactured from 1966 to 1985. It debuted at the 2015 LA Auto Show, and was sold in North America for the 2017 to 2020 model years. Just over 41,000 were produced.
