You may have heard about the hubby Maserati name, which is a classic car or truck enthusiast. The history of sports events created by automakers, refers to December 1914. The original company behind it was founded by the Maserati brothers Alfieri, Bindo, Carlo, Ettore and Ernesto. All except one, Mario (the artist who created the logo, inspired by the statue of Neptune in the square in Bologna), participated in the design, engineering and construction of cars.
In the 1930s, the sporty cars created by the Maseratis won the main European races. Between the millions of companies was a speed record of 246.092 km / h, set by the racing driver of the Italian Grand Prix Baconin Borzaccini in 1929. With Juan-Miguel Fangio and several riders behind the wheel, the Maserati also won the planet championship in 1957, using the Maserati 250F.
Nevertheless, like other companies that are experiencing sharp turns in business cycles, the company had a significant part of the financial problems. Maserati overcame such a situation in the 1970s. In 1993, the company was justified through the Italian auto conglomerate Fiat SpA, becoming the site of an exotic sports car group, whose automotive innovations combined Alfa Romeo and other European sports cars, such as Fiat
Setting the record as the first road car produced by Maserati was the A6 1500. The work plan for this vehicle, built between 1947 and 1951, was led by the Maserati brothers, who were still responsible for the development even after they sold the agency to Modezin industrialist Adolfo Orsi.
There were many other Maserati cars that helped shape the character and personality of the company, including the Mistral, which was named after the famous Mediterranean wind, and was part of the new six-cylinder models of the 1960s Maserati. Indy, equipped with 4.1 liters, increased to 4.7 liters, then 4.9 liters, surpassed the Ghibli, which was developed by Giorgio Giugiaro.
Ferrari took control of Maserati in 1997 and continued to change the Maserati to a world-renowned luxury brand.
