The Tipo Quattro platform (type four) was a front wheel drive platform co-developed in the 1980s and 1990s and shared by the Saab 9000, Fiat Croma, Lancia Thema, and Alfa Romeo 164.[3] The platform, ultimately in production for fourteen years, was the fifth and largest of Fiat's Tipo platforms, a numbering sequence that began with zero, hence "four" (the four does not refer to its use by four carmakers).[4]
