I don't know who designed it, but I've never seen it included as anything designed by Fioré.

Welcome to AutoPuzzles smodmog.
You've found the car all right.
Now I need to know a) when it's from and b) exactly why it was built by Autocars.
Get those and you have a point!
Locked for you of course.

I suspect it's from  1972 or 1973 ?and this is something I also found :Autocars was an Israeli company set up with the help of Reliant and later became a British Leyland Motor Corporation outpost. Autocars was bought by Rom Carmel Industries in 1974
Rest is in Hebrew which I can't understand on following site <<removed>>

Yes; actually it's from 1971 and to get  you started I'll complete the information for you:
it was a proposed replacement for the Sussita wagon, but which never actually entered production.
To get your points on AutoPuzzles we deal in full and accurate info!
The other thing is that links are not allowed within the puzzles as they can lead, even if unintentionally, to answers to other puzzles.  I've therefore removed your link and given you your first point.  Well done!
