Premier Padmini started as the Fiat 1100 delight in 1964 on Indian roads.
Aesthetically the car was simple and sleek. It had a 3-box design with chrome-lined round headlights placed at corners with a giant grill at the center housing pal logo and blinkers placed beneath it. It had curved front and rear bumpers crafted in chrome door handles and a hub wheel cap also made up of chrome.
Padmini was manufactured with bench-style seating, with hand gears earlier before it upgraded itself to the floor gear, bucket seat models.
