The Zastava 750 (Serbo-Croatian Cyrillic: Застава 750) is a supermini made by the Yugoslav car maker Zavod Crvena Zastava in Kragujevac. It was a version of the Fiat 600 made under licence from 1962 and was slightly longer than the original Fiat model. The Zastava 750 has a 767 cc (46.8 cu in) engine, also available in a more powerful 750 SE variant and later upgraded to 843 cc (51.4 cu in). It is the smallest car ever made by Zastava. Later on during production, in 1980, the Zastava 850 was introduced. It is nearly identical to the Zastava 750 but the engine had a larger capacity. The Zastava 850 is harder to find than the 750 model, but both are still widely available in former Yugoslavia. The Zastava 750 is widely known by its nickname "Fića" (Фићa) in Serbian, "Fićo" in Bosnian and Croatian, by "Fičo" or "Fičko" in Slovene, and by "Fikjo" (Фиќо) in Macedonian. The nickname comes from the main character of a comic published by the newspaper Borba during the first years of the car's production.
