The Fiat 242 was a van which was produced by Fiat from 1974.
The Fiat 242 van was the result of a cooperation with Citroën and was sold under the name Citroën C35 in France.[1] Both vehicles were produced in Italy till 1987 with Fiat engines, and then in France by Chausson, when Fiat discontinued the 242. Citroën retained the model until 1992. This cooperation was the precursor of Sevel.
The Citroën C35 shares the same platform as the Fiat 242. The first diesel engine available that had been used in the Citroën C35 since 1973, the *2.2 L (2200 cc) diesel inline-four engine was shared with the Citroën CX 2200 D.[2]
