The car was intended to go mass production but that never happened and Giulietta Sprint took its space as more mainstream mass production car. The 2000 Sportiva has 2 liter engine fed with two twin side Weber draft carburettors producing 138 PS (101 kW; 136 hp), that gave top speed of 220 km/h (137 mph). The all aluminum body sits in spaceframe chassis (seen also in Disco Volante) and the suspension has De Dion axle at the rear.
