I don't speak Italian - is it a special edition commemorating the Torino soccer club?

Juventus is latin word for youth. And Juventus is close to Jeunesse, meaning youth in French. So it was the least expensive A112 for young people

I don't mean to be rude, but why do you always have to answer me so snidely?

A simple "No, Juventus means 'youth' in Italian ;)" would have been enough.

It's something like the 'Young' series of Fiat (Panda, Seicento, Punto)

Anyway, at those times Autobianchi was already a brand of the Fiat group, which belongs to the same family owning also the Juventus FC, so it could have made sense indeed (but maybe rather in Italy than only in France)

Autobianchi were not sold by Fiat in France, but via "Chardonnet", private importer. And André Chardonnet was not a Fiat family friend as he imported Zastava or Polski. So no link with Fiat, and of course not with football!
We had a couple of limited edition A112 in France, like the "Appia" and the "Ardea". Like "Juventus", they are latin name.

As sais Alex, as to be undestand like Young series

Appia and Ardea are also two Roman locations and, in particular, two historical Lancia models. Lancia was bought by Fiat in 1969 and merged with Autobianchi and, as bref said, both brands were sold in France by Chardonnet (first Autobianchi in 1962 and then also Lancia in 1974, until 1988, when the sales went under control of Fiat France).

Chardonnet was one of the greatest car importers in France and had most success with the Lancia-Autobianchi brands. He even created a racing team for which he created a customized version of the Stratos.
The Chardonnet group never imported Fiat cars in France, but of several brands linked to it (as already said by bref,for example Neckar, FSO and Zastava and later also Maserati and Bertone) and is reported having also influenced the creation of some models
