Ferrari, Lamborghini, Rolls-Royce, Porsche: where the great marques are made

The great marques.

Every great car comes from a small town with a long memory. Where they are made, where to see them, and the weekends that bring them all out.

In short

Ferrari builds in Maranello and Lamborghini in Sant'Agata Bolognese, both in Emilia-Romagna.
Rolls-Royce has built at Goodwood, West Sussex, since 2003. Porsche is in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen.
The Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este has been held on Lake Como since 1929.
What the same Ferrari costs to register, in 11 places: the table.

Maranello

Ferrari, from a racing team to a prancing horse.

Enzo Ferrari founded Scuderia Ferrari in 1929 as a racing team for Alfa Romeo. The first car to carry his own name, the 125 S, left Maranello in 1947, and the factory has stayed there ever since. The Museo Ferrari stands a few minutes from the gates, and the Fiorano test track sits beside the works.

Ferrari has been listed on the New York Stock Exchange since October 2015. The cars are built to order.

Sant'Agata Bolognese

Lamborghini, the tractor maker's answer.

Ferruccio Lamborghini made his fortune in tractors and founded Automobili Lamborghini in 1963 in Sant'Agata Bolognese, in the same corner of Emilia-Romagna as Maranello. Audi has owned the company since 1998. The museum at the factory shows the line from the Miura to the present cars.

Goodwood and Crewe

Rolls-Royce and Bentley, England's 2 houses.

Charles Rolls and Henry Royce founded Rolls-Royce in 1906. Under BMW, the cars have been built at Goodwood in West Sussex since 2003, on the estate that also holds the Festival of Speed every July and the Goodwood Revival in September.

W.O. Bentley founded Bentley in 1919. The cars have been built in Crewe since 1946. Both run a commissioning studio for cars built to the owner's own specification.

Zuffenhausen

Porsche, where the 911 still comes from.

Ferdinand Porsche opened his design office in 1931. The first car to carry the name, the 356, was built in 1948 in Gmünd, Austria, before production moved to Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen. The Porsche Museum stands in front of the works.
