Ford Italia S.p.A., previously Ford Italiana S.A. and Ford Motor Company Italia, is the Italian subsidiary of the United States–based automaker Ford Motor Company.
Ford founded the Ford Motor Company Italia in Trieste in 1923 to assemble automobiles.[1] The company moved to Bologna in 1933.[1] After the Second World War, the company was renamed Ford Italiana SA.[1] In 1959, it moved to Rome.[1] By 1964, their only independent model was the Ford Anglia Torino. Production ended in 1967,[2] and the company still exists today as Ford Italia S.p.A.
