The 1200 Spyder was replaced in 1959 by the Pininfarina designed Fiat 1200 Cabriolet. In November 1959, this also became available with an O.S.C.A. built twin cam engine of 1,491 cc, developing 80 PS (59 kW). This model is called the Fiat 1500 S Cabriolet. In 1962 this engine was replaced with an O.S.C.A. 1,568 cc twin cam four with 90 PS (66 kW) (100 hp gross). In 1963 the 1200 was replaced by the 1500 Cabriolet, with a restyled front end and a larger Fiat pushrod engine from the 1500 saloon.
