Maserati: 100 Date: 1 December 2014 Maserati: 100 years today The Maserati Centennial reaches its conclusion: from today, a plaque at no.1 via de’ Pepoli in Bologna will permanently recall the company’s first workshop, opened on 1 December 1914 - one hundred years today. One hundred years ago today, Alfieri Maserati and his brothers Ettore and Ernesto began what was to become a triumphant chapter in Italian automotive history. It was on Tuesday 1 December 1914, at number 1A via de’ Pepoli, in the heart of Bologna, that the three brothers opened their “car repair workshop and garage”. The “one-man business registration application” was submitted ten days later at the nearby Palazzo della Mercanzia, in what is now home to the Bologna Chamber of Commerce. The application was accepted and registered four days later. This was the start of Maserati’s long history - based in Bologna until 1939, centred in Modena since then and launched at high speed on the world’s roads today. A plaque, affixed by Bologna City Council in association with Maserati, will permanently recall the Maserati brothers’ first historic Bologna workshop. The plaque reads as follows: “Società Anonima Officine Alfieri Maserati” was founded in this building on 1 December 1914.Thanks to the genius and labours of Alfieri and his brothers Ettore, Ernesto and Bindo the company went on to gain international fame and prestige thus contributing to the world’s awareness of Bologna’s excellent industrial identity. Maserati and Bologna City Council in the year of the Centennial “The plaque is a symbolic tribute to an anniversary of fundamental importance to Maserati. In fact, we are celebrating the Centennial in a particularly significant year for us,” said Harald Wester, Maserati CEO. 2014, which marks one hundred years since our company’s foundation, is also the year in which the Quattroporte and Ghibli have beaten all previous sales records; in which the American market – with the Ghibli – and the Chinese market – with the Quattroporte – have amply rewarded the efforts we have made to offer a new, beautiful, competitive product, truly capable of responding to market demand; it is the year in which the GranTurismo and GranCabrio sports cars have continued to achieve international success. It is the year of the Alfieri, an amazing concept car built to mark the Centennial, named after our founder, which explores the Brand’s stylistic heritage while looking ahead to its future design language. It is the year in which customers and fans celebrate our glorious past, enjoy a present in which the product range is wider than ever before, and look eagerly forward to the near future: the launch of the Maserati SUV, to be followed by the Alfieri, as the concept car goes into production.” Maserati CEO Harald Wester was accompanied by Carlo and Alfieri Maserati, sons respectively of Ettore and Ernesto Maserati, the two brothers who were at Alfieri’s side in December 1914. Carlo Maserati, Ettore’s son, declared, “100 years have passed since Uncle Alfieri created ‘Società Anonima Officine Alfieri Maserati’ and it is now 116 since 1898, when his eldest brother Carlo, then just seventeen years of age, built a motorbike fitted with an engine he had designed and built himself at home; an event that thrilled his brothers and inspired them to follow his example. We all know the engineering and racing results they achieved under both the Maserati and the OSCA names in almost 70 continuous years in business. This longevity was founded on the perfect understanding within the family and engineering skills that enabled them to build a racing car in just six months. As I commemorate my father Ettore and my other Uncles Bindo, Ernesto, and Mario, I would like to thank all those who have enabled Maserati to live on and assure it further successes in the future.” Alfieri Maserati, Ernesto’s son, recalled, “Founded as Officine Alfieri Maserati in 1914 this business, springing from the enterprising spirit and genius of its founder, my Uncle Alfieri, continued in operation after his early death in March 1932 thanks to the dedication and extreme personal sacrifices of his brothers. I feel I must mention the extraordinary engineering and design creativity of the youngest of them, Ernesto Maserati, my father. The period witnessed the birth of an amazing series of both Grand Prix cars and Voiturettes, as well as world-beating cars that actually held as many as 13 international speed records simultaneously. After the Maserati brothers left the business in 1947, other people stepped in to continue its success. Its acquisition by the Fiat Group has brought Maserati to a position of absolute prestige, today, with constant growth in terms of both quality and quantity. It is a pleasure to celebrate the Centennial at a time like this, and one hundred years after the company's foundation, I have great admiration for the hard work, dedication and enthusiasm of everyone who works there. They have conserved the spirit of its founders.” Today marks exactly 100 years since its foundation, but Maserati’s Centennial celebrations began a year ago, with events of international importance which have involved customers and fans all over the world, as well as the entire sales network. During the year, Maserati has been “Guest of Honour” at a number of the world’s most prestigious automotive events, including the Villa D’Este Concours d’Elegance, the Goodwood Festival of Speed in England and the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance during the Monterey Car Week in California. Maserati was also chosen as guest of honour to officially open the 70th annual Columbus Day parade in New York last October. The celebrations culminated in the International Gathering, which started in Bologna in September: exhibitions, parades, a regularity competition, a track practice session, guided tours of the two Maserati plants in Modena and Grugliasco and a Concours d’Elegance, with more than 200 cars and over 500 people from all over the world taking part. Amongst the cars participating, some arrived straight fromBeijing, having driven 13,500 kilometres right across Asia and Russia and passing through the main European capitals on their way to Modena. The Maserati Centennial Gathering also received a coveted award a few days ago when it was named “Tour of the Year” by the jury of the “International Historic Motoring Awards 2014”. For all fans, the extraordinary exhibition “MASERATI 100 - A Century of Pure Italian Luxury Sports Cars” will remain open in Modena until the end of January. The exhibition, housed in Modena’s futuristic Museo Enzo Ferrari, allows visitors to retrace the Italian automotive firm’s history with a display of approximately twenty of its key road and racing models..

  • 805 Maserati Brand Book Eng
    Shared passion Passione condivisa One makes sports cars. The other makes speakers. On the face of it, Maserati and Bowers & Wilkins might seem like quite different companies. But look more closely, and you’ll see that they have a lot in common. A proud heritage of engineering excellence. A tradition of pioneering innovation and design. And at the heart of it all, a single-minded focus on performance. In this booklet, you’ll find out more about the story of Maserati and Bowers & Wilkins, and the passion that unites us. You’ll also learn how our partnership has led to the creation of two very special products: the Maserati Edition 805 speaker and P5 headphones. Una costruisce auto sportive, l’altra diffusori. Apparentemente Maserati e Bowers & Wilkins possono sembrare aziende alquanto diverse. Ma guardando più da vicino si scopre che entrambe hanno molto in comune. L’orgoglio di un patrimonio di eccellenza ingegneristica la prima. Una tradizione di innovazione e di design la seconda. Ed in comune l’obiettivo delle prestazioni. In queste pagine potrete apprendere qualche informazione in più sulla storia di Maserati e Bowers & Wilkins e sui valori che ci uniscono. Scoprirete anche come questa nostra collaborazione ha portato alla creazione di due prodotti molto speciali: la Maserati Edition del diffusore 805 e delle cuffie P5. Early vision Visione iniziale The Bowers & Wilkins story begins with the vision of one man: John Bowers. Bowers believed that a loudspeaker should be to the ear what a flawless pane of glass is to the eye. It should allow the clear passage of a sensory image, faithful in every nuance to the original.

  • 20 April 2014 the Maserati Alfieri Stars at the Beijing
    Date: 20 April 2014 The Maserati Alfieri stars at the Beijing Auto Show This centenary concept explores Maserati’s stylistic heritage and hints at the brand’s future design language. Maserati unveiled the Alfieri, a 2+2 concept car to celebrate the brand’s centenary at the Beijing Auto Show today. The Alfieri is an exciting but realistic and 100% functional prototype that says much about the design DNA of future Maseratis. In fact, the Alfieri could well be a door to the future of Maserati. The striking new concept bears the name of Alfieri, the most prominent of the Maserati brothers, and the engineering genius who founded “Officine Alfieri Maserati” in Bologna a century ago. The Alfieri was created at the Maserati Centro Stile in Turin by a small group of talented young designers led by Marco Tencone. The project was masterminded by Lorenzo Ramaciotti. In this, its 100th year, the Maserati company is in fine health. An ambitious plan that took off in 2013 with the presentation of the Quattroporte and Ghibli models is transforming the Italian manufacturer into a serious player in the premium sports car segment. In just one year, from 2012 to 2013, sales increased by 150%, from 6,200 to 15,400 cars. Today Maserati is a global automotive player with a complete model range made up of two four- door saloons, two GT sports cars, four engines (a V8, a V6 Twin Turbo, a V8 NA and a turbo Diesel), and two different architectures (AWD & RWD). And there’s an SUV coming soon! The Maserati Alfieri Concept Design concepts The Alfieri is being unveiled at just the right time to re-establish Maserati’s true orientation in terms of design and production.

All became involved in engineering, and later in design and construction of automobiles and engines. Carlo the oldest son, as a very young apprentice, designed an engine in 1898 to power a bicycle (velocipede). He found a patron, Marquis Carcano who, started a factory for bicycle engine production in the same year. 4 The Maserati Brothers Carlo Maserati took part in motor cycle competitions for a few seasons and successes were gained during 1898-1900. 1901 Carlo went to work for Fiat, then in 1903, for Isotta Fraschini, as technical adviser & test- driver.

  • 1923 Maserati in a 2 Litre Diatto at the Beginning of the Twenties, Alfieri
    1923 Maserati in a 2 litre Diatto At the beginning of the Twenties, Alfieri and Ernesto Maserati were highly sought after for their skills, both as drivers and designers. Diatto believed in their talent and brought them in to direct the Race Team in 1922, winning against numerous other offers, thus launching a long period of fruitful collaboration in automotive design and race victories. Alfieri Maserati, with a Diatto 3000, took first place in November 1922 at the Monza Autodrome, winning the Gran Premio d’Autunno - 400 km, at an average speed of 125 kph, with the renowned Ugo Sivocci in his Alfa Romeo 3000 bringing up the rear. 1924 - Maserati/Parenti in a Diatto 3 litri This was the first of a series of important wins, on track and road, like the very challenging Parma - Poggio di Berceto and Aosta - Gran San Bernardo uphill time trials, victories which were repeated for two years in a row. Between 1924 and 1925, Alfieri Maserati, under the guidance of Coda, whom he called “my master”, developed the prototypes into a new Diatto engine with total displacement reduced to 1995 cc. Supercharged 8-cylinder Diatto Grand Prix The Maserati brothers, absorbed in their prestigious work for Diatto, were by now living in Turin to design, test and race their Diatto race cars. In 1923, Coda, the Diatto director and designer, made two experimental 8 cylinder, 4 litre, inline engines, by coupling together two Diatto Tipo 20 series production engine blocks. This was the first 8C Diatto engine built by Maserati, with inline single block aluminium engine, with two shafts, two Memini carburettors and Roots compressor; a design which was so successful that when Maserati founded his own company, he used it and achieved victories in it for many years.
