FULL DESIGN MADE IN ITALY ITALIAN STYLE APPRECIATED WORLDWIDE “In every project, creativity must always be measured alongside feasibility” Aldo Cingolani IL MAESTRO For his influence and outstanding contribution to the design and the car industry Nuccio Bertone was inducted in the Automotive Hall of fame in 2006 in Detroit, taking his place alongside other automotive icons, including Henry Ford, Giovanni Agnelli, Louis Renault and the Michelin brothers. The acclaimed automotive historian Fulvio Cinti described him as “one of the greatest coachbuilders of the century, and International Maestro of Italian Style” A GREAT HISTORY Founded in 1912, Bertone is one of the oldest and most prestigious «made in Italy» firms in the sector of automobiles, and has accompanied the automotive industry’s technological and stylistic evolution during the first century of its existence. From its creation to the 1930s, Bertone aroused the enthusiasm of a demanding public of collectors and gentleman drivers with its « Fuori Serie » cars. Under the guidance of Nuccio, the founder’s son, Bertone entered the 1960s with great success, riding the wave of the Italian economical boom and developing cars that would enter history as a result of highly skilled tailoring and leading edge technology. The Lamborghini Miura (1966) became a symbol of success worldwide. Followed by the Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint (1953), Stratos Zero (1970), Lamborghini Countach (1971) and more recently by Jaguar, Ferrari, Aston Martin and BWM, all had the unique Bertone signature that made their success.
