Iso Fidia (or Iso Rivolta Fidia), initially Iso S4, was a four-door sedan from the Italian automobile maker Iso Rivolta. The Fidia, produced 1967-1975 in 192 copies, was the only four-door model from Iso.

The Fidia was, like other Iso cars, powered by a Chevrolet V8 engine, and was quite quick off the line (0-60 in around 7 seconds). The body design was the work of Giorgetto Giugiaro (then at Ghia). The interior featured polished wood and hand-stitched leather. High development costs drove the purchase price higher than that of a Rolls-Royce. The Fidia's main competitors were other luxurious and sporty sedans like the Maserati Quattroporte.

The second Fidia made (and the first with right hand drive) was purchased by English rockstar John Lennon.
