Isotta Fraschini
The Isotta Fraschini Tipo D is one of 11 Isotta Fraschini models in the MotorJury library, the catalogue that sets out to hold every car ever made — production, prototype and concept alike.
The record does not fix a firm introduction year for the Isotta Fraschini Tipo D, which is itself informative: cars without a clean launch date are usually prototypes, coachbuilt specials, or models whose history was written down long after the fact. The catalogue keeps them anyway, because the odd corners of the record are where the interesting machines hide.
On paper, the Isotta Fraschini Tipo D reads like this: the record lists its engine as 17.2 liter ohv ohc inline 4; kerb weight is recorded at related =; drive goes through wheelbase =; the layout is platform =. Every figure above is a manufacturer specification carried by the Wikipedia infobox or the open Wikidata record for this model — nothing on this page is estimated, and where a source is silent the row simply does not appear.
Within Isotta Fraschini's own catalogue the Isotta Fraschini Tipo D sits alongside the Isotta Fraschini D65, the Isotta Fraschini T8 and T12, the Isotta Fraschini Tipo 6 LMH-C, the Isotta Fraschini Tipo 8. The record names the successor = 1908 Isotta Fraschini Tipo FE as its predecessor and the 1908 Isotta Fraschini Tipo FE as its successor, fixing its place in the model line's chronology. Design is credited to Giuseppe Stefanini. Assembly is recorded at Milan, Italy.
This library is generated, verified and rebuilt from the open record on every deploy. The catalogue skeleton comes from Wikidata, specifications from Wikipedia's infoboxes under CC BY-SA, photography from Wikimedia Commons under each file's own licence, and the ownership data from United States federal safety records. Nothing is written by hand and nothing is invented: every fact on this page traces to a public source, and every page is rebuilt nightly as those sources improve. Errors in the source record will appear here too — and disappear the night the source is corrected.
Most car databases stop at series production. This one deliberately does not, because concept cars, racing specials and cancelled prototypes are where the industry thinks out loud — the ideas tested in public years before they reach a showroom. Holding them beside the production cars they inspired makes the lineage legible: nearly every landmark road car in this library has a concept ancestor somewhere in the catalogue, and the connections run through the era links on every page.
Some pages in this library brim with specifications; others, like corners of every archive, are thin. The honest response to a thin record is to say so, not to pad it. What is shown here is exactly what the public record supports today — and because the harvest re-runs nightly, the page you are reading is the fullest version of this car's open record that existed the last time the site was built.
What this page cannot yet tell you is what the Isotta Fraschini Tipo D costs to live with — that is a different dataset. MotorJury's ownership verdicts are computed from federal complaint and recall records plus EPA economy data, published per model year as the nightly ingest reaches each car. If this model was sold in the United States, its years will surface in the ownership database; browse it live or price any car yourself with the true-cost calculator.
Specifications come from the Wikipedia infobox for this model (CC BY-SA) and the open Wikidata record, and are shown only where a source actually carries them — nothing here is estimated. Figures are manufacturer specifications, not measured results.
