Recorded originItaly
ClassOpen touring car
Alberto Balloco-designed advanced final Fratelli Ceirano model, shown in spring 1903. Its wood frame was steel-reinforced; pedal braking acted on the differential while simultaneously disengaging the engine. It remained a Ceirano through the G.G. Fratelli Ceirano transition before Rapid branding replaced the marque; exact body and production ledgers do not survive.
