**ItalliFabbrica Enea S.p.A.** is a design and engineering company and brand based in Bologna, Italy, that traces its roots to the 1968 foundation of **Studia Italiano Commerciale S.p.A**. by Bartolo Enea and Gildo Filadelfo. Best known for its automobile design work, ItalliFabbrica also offers product design, project management, styling, packaging, engineering, modeling, prototyping and testing services to manufacturers worldwide. After the aquisition of the brand under Automobili Agosti, ItalliFabbrica has become a luxury car manufacturer that mainly produces exclusive high-end vehicles for wealthy consumers.

On February 13th, 2023, Aviazione Agosti subsidiary **Automobili Agosti** acquired 92% of the shares of Italdesign Giugiaro S.p.A., including the brand name rights and patents, with the Enea Family retaining the rest of the shares.

## History

### Foundation

Bartolo Enea and Gildo Filadelfo founded Studia Italiano Commerciale S.p.A in 1968, the company that would eventually become ItalliFabbrica, on March 15th, 1974, in Bologna, Italy.

In August 1983, ItalliFabbrica would begin to design concept cars for multiple companies across the world, and would create a test track near the headquarter to allow companies to use the track for testing new cars and concepts. They would also take commission requests from wealthy consumers to modify production vehicles from other manufacturers to have a more "elegant" design with a higher power output.

### Agosti

Agosti and ItalliFabbrica have a history of working together that dates back to the early 2010s. Founder Gioachino Agosti had worked with ItalliFabbrica to design the interiors of some of the early business jet models that Aviazione Agosti would produce. Gioachino would be apprenticed by Bartolo Enea, learning about unique design and styling. Italdesign is responsible for the design of several interiors of Agosti's aircraft, and also made a few planes themselves. Gioachino Agosti and Bartolo Enea would become great friends because of this.

In February 2023, Bartolo Enea agreed to transfer 92% of its shares to Aviazione Agosti subsidiary Automobili Agosti S.p.A. The Enea family retained ownership of the remaining shares. Both Bartolo Enea and his son, Luca Enea, continued to have active roles in the company. With acquisition now in place, ItaliFabbrica is now planned to produce more exclusive vehicles under their name for a more luxurious and grandiose market. Felice Giotto, Automobili Agosti's former Head of Design would move into the designing seat of ItalliFabbrica, and would also be personally mentored by Luca Enea, who has taken over as Head of ItalliFabbrica after his father, Bartolo's retirement as of March 16, 2023. Both Luca and Felice would start the project to design the first ItalliFabbrica in-house model in March of 2023, marked under the name, "Model 150" as a "final sendoff" to Bartolo's long career. A tease of their year long project known as the "**DaVinci**" was posted on their website around the late quarter of 2023, and a concept car named the **Chimaera** was unveiled in October 30, 2023.
