Fiat

Fiat, or Fabbrica Italiana Automobili Torino, was founded in Turin, Italy, in 1899. It is one of the world's oldest and most significant automotive manufacturers. From its early focus on simple, affordable transportation, Fiat has evolved to produce a diverse range of vehicles, impacting automotive design and engineering globally. The company played a crucial role in the motorization of Italy and expanded internationally throughout the 20th century.

Fiat's history is marked by innovation, including pioneering small car designs and advanced engine technologies. The company has also experienced periods of financial difficulty and restructuring, but has consistently adapted to changing market conditions. In 2014, Fiat S.p.A. merged with Chrysler Group to form Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA), which later became Stellantis in 2021. Throughout these transformations, the Fiat brand has retained its identity and continues to be a significant player in the automotive industry, known for its stylish designs and focus on efficient, urban-friendly vehicles.
