According to racing pilot Michele Alboreto, going fast means entering an "unexplored territory that not many can reach". Thanks to cars such as the Uno Turbo, he added, "that territory was no longer solely reserved for professional pilots".
This was the promise of the electronic injection Uno Turbo, the first car to adopt this technology, placing it next to the turbine in the "popular cars" segment.
The car also featured a host of technical innovations experimented on the track. It is no surprise that the advertisements at the time depicted the Uno Turbo against a mirror and reflected in the mirror was the image of an F1 car. The message was: you can experience the excitement of driving a racing car too!
The Uno Turbo has become the symbol of an entire generation. It is a legend that people talked about in bars and meeting spots because it was better than any competition and it also gave young people the chance to drive a sports car capable of reaching 200km per hour.
The Uno Turbo Club Italia - The Family considers itself to be a real family which brings together enthusiasts and the people around them.
