The History of Ferrari: How the Iconic Brand Began

Ferrari is an Italian luxury sports car manufacturer founded by Enzo Ferrari in 1939. The company is based in Maranello, Italy, and is known for its high-performance vehicles and rich racing history.

Enzo Ferrari was a racecar driver and car designer who worked for Alfa Romeo before starting his own company. In the 1920s and 1930s, he began building racecars under the name Scuderia Ferrari, which means 'Ferrari stable' in Italian. The company's first racecar was the Auto Avio Costruzioni 815, which was built in 1940.

After World War II, Ferrari began producing street cars in addition to racecars. The company's first production car was the 125 S, which was introduced in 1947. Since then, Ferrari has become one of the most iconic and prestigious car brands in the world, known for its sleek and powerful vehicles. Today, the company produces a range of sports cars and supercars, as well as hybrid and electric vehicles.
