The Zagato Zele 1000, 1500, 2000 is an electric microcar with a fiberglass body manufactured by the Italian design company Zagato. Produced 1974โ€“1976, the Zele was an unusual departure from Zagato's famous designs, which had long been known for their beauty and performance. The Zele, however, was high, square cornered and had a low top speed. They were produced in 7 colors and the chassis and suspension were derived from the Fiat 500 and Fiat 124. The 1000, 1500, and 2000 stand for the wattage of the motors respectively. Approximately 500 were made.
