Back in December 2013, Maserati launched activities to mark the brand's 100th birthday.
100 years of Maserati
The brand was officially founded on December 1, 1914 and operations began on December 14, 1914. The core of the company at the time were the three brothers Alfieri, Ettore and Ernesto Maserati. A fourth brother, Bindo, joined the company in 1932 when Alfieri died. Another brother, Mario, is said to have designed the famous Maserati trademark, the trident.
The company's first own car was produced in 1926, the Tipo 26 racing car, which made its debut by winning the Targa Florio in the same year.
In 1946, Maserati brought out its first road sports car, the A6. In 1963, the company from Modena surprised the world with a four-door model.
Big Maserati meeting from September 19 to 21, 2014
In September, around 250 Maserati models from all over the world will gather in Modena to celebrate the 100th anniversary. The three-day program will include tours of the beautiful areas around Modena, as well as opportunities to drive on the race track.
Exhibition at the Museo Casa Enzo Ferrari
A major exhibition is also planned for the second half of the year at the Ferrari Museum, which will showcase the most important and special models in Maserati's history.
