Milano-based design studio Castagna Milano has prepared a funky convertible, based on the Fiat 500.

Called the 500C Ischia, the vehicle has no doors and offers room for four passengers, sitting in four separated seats with retro leather upholstery. Other notable changes include wooden panels, quad tailpipes and lowered suspension.

Finished in red, the 500 C Ischia is powered by a 0.9-liter TwinAir Turbo engine with 105 PS (77 kW) at 5,500 rpm and 145 Nm (107 lb-ft) of torque.

Fiat currently has the 500 Cabrio in its model lineup, which is not the typical convertible as it has side windows with roof bars and fixed C-pillar, as well as only a central retractabe cloth roof.
