You've got it mautzel.
Innovations:
.adoption of a load-bearing body and the deletion of the separate chassis;
.independent front suspension;
.the engine was also novel, using a cast-aluminium engine block, a narrow-angle V4 layout and high (for the period) engine speeds.

Okay, here's one for you:

Clue #1: It is the sister model of a car that still is built today.

Clue #2: The model that I'm looking for was available to customers before the model that still is built today.
