Bertone
Gruppo Bertone is an
Italian car styling and
coachbuilding house, which also manufactures cars. Bertone styling is very distinctive, with most cars having a strong "family resemblance" even if badged by different manufacturers. Bertone has styled cars for
Alfa Romeo,
Ferrari,
Fiat,
Lancia,
Lamborghini and
Volvo Cars among others. In addition the Bertone studio were responsible for two of the later designs of the famous Italian motorscooter "
Lambretta". The highly innovative and influential-if unsuccessful "Luna" range and the DL/GP -a makeover of the established LI Ser III design
The company is based in
Turin. It was founded as
Carrozzeria Bertone in
1914 by
Giovanni Bertone, with designer
Nuccio Bertone taking over after
World War II. The company was divided into two units — the Carrozzeria building as many as 40,000 cars per year at its height, and the styling studio,
Stile Bertone. The company is currently headed by
Lilli Bertone, widow of Nuccio.
