FCA Poland SA (until April 1, 2015 Fiat Auto Poland SA) is an automobile factory belonging to Fiat Chrysler Automobiles formed on May 28, 1992 after Fiat acquired Fabryka Samochodów Małolitrażowych (FSM) in Bielsko-Biała and Tychy. At that time, Fiat Auto took over 90% of the company’s shares. The takeover of FSM by Fiat is considered hostile and controversial.[2][3][4]
After the company was established, some of the subsidiary plants of the former FSM were taken over by enterprises belonging to the Fiat Auto group, creating their Polish branches, such as Teksid Poland, Magneti Marelli Poland.
Initially, the company produced two models, the 126 and the licensed ZX1-79, or Cinquecento. In the following years: UNO, Siena, Palio, Palio Weekend, and in Tychy Cinquecento with a 700 cm³ engine produced in Bielsko-Biała, which won second place in the 1993 European Car of the Year competition. A model with a 900 cm³ engine supplied with Italian. In 1994 Fiat 126 was modified. Some UNO components also used in Cinquecento were used in the model. For example, the doors were unified using the same side mirrors. In December 1996, the Fiat 126 ELX appeared with the module used in Cinquecento, it signalled the toxicity of exhaust gases after exceeding a certain speed by means of the colour of LEDs. However, there was no expensive Lambda probe in the exhaust system, used only temporarily to actuate and program the module. Apart from modernising the existing products, new ones were introduced.
In 1994, CKD assembly of the Uno model began in Bielsko-Biała. This was soon replaced by a full technological cycle with engines 1.4 dm³, 1.1 dm³, and 1.0 dm³. Innocenti cars with only 1.0 dm³ engine were also installed. This model was supplied to the Innocenti network as Innocenti Mille (1000) to assist with pre-payment order fulfillment in the Brazilian market. Innocenti was a licensed UNO model purchased by Brazil. In 1995, the assembly of the Fiat Punto and Ducato SKDs in Tychy began, which lasted until the beginning of 2000 (from November 1999 it was the Punto II).
In June 1997, serial production of the Siena model from Brazil started at the Body Works in Bielsko-Biała, and a few months later Fiat Palio and Palio Weekend (spring 1998). In 1998, the assembly of SKD models of Bravo, Brava, Marea, Marea Weekend, and Ducato began in Tychy. It lasted until the beginning of 2000. The factory in Tychy later produced the assembly lines for Models Palio, UNO, and Palio Weekend were transferred from Bielsko-Biała.
In spring 1998 the Cinquecento was replaced by the Seicento model. Until then, 1,164,478, the so-called “CC”, of which 863,254 were exported. On September 22, 2000, the production of the Fiat 126 was completed in Bielsko-Biała, the final run of over 1,000 units included a sticker with “Maluch Happy End”.

The Fiat 500 is a two-door, four-passenger, transverse front-engine, front-wheel-drive A-segment city car manufactured and marketed by the Fiat subdivision of FCA since 2007. It is available in hatchback coupé and fixed-profile convertible body styles, over a single generation — with an intermediate facelift in Europe with model year 2016. The 500 is internally designated as the Type 312 by FCA.
Derived from the 2004 Fiat Trepiùno 3+1 concept (designed by Roberto Giolito), the 500’s styling recalls Fiat’s 1957 Fiat 500,[6][7][8] nicknamed the Bambino[9] — a model that was designed and engineered by Dante Giacosa with more than 4 million sold over its 18-year (1957-1975) production span.[10] In 2011, Roberto Giolito of Centro Stile Fiat received Compasso d’Oro industrial design award for Fiat 500.[11]
Manufactured in Tychy, Poland and Toluca, Mexico, the 500 is marketed in more than 100 countries worldwide,[12] including North America, where the 500 marked Fiat’s market return after 27 years. With the millionth Fiat 500 produced in 2012; and production reaching 2 million in 2017, after 10 years, the 500 has won more than 40 major awards, including the CAR Magazine Car of the Year (2007)[13] and the World’s Most Beautiful Automobile.[14]

https://m.youtube.com/results?search_query=Fiat+Seicento
The Fiat Seicento (Type 187) is a city car produced by the Italian company Fiat, introduced at the end of 1997 as a replacement for the Fiat Cinquecento, although it was also based on the Cinquecento. The Seicento did not differ much from its predecessor, retaining the same engines, chassis and general dimensions, although it did gain a minor 90 mm in length (total length of 3,340 mm).
Like its predecessors, the Cinquecento and Polski Fiat 126, the Seicento was built in Fiat’s factory in Tychy, Poland.[2]
From March 1998 to April 2004, 1.1 million examples of the Seicento had been produced.[3] The Seicento name comes from the Italian word for 600; the Seicento is the spiritual successor to the Fiat 600. The car was rebadged as the 600 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the original model.
