About Bentley Maserati OEM Parts

Officine Alfieri Maserati SA was founded in Bologna, Italy, in December 1914 by the brothers Alfieri, Ettore, and Ernesto Maserati. Spark plugs were the company’s first major product, and during World War I Maserati made the devices for aircraft engines. The Maserati emblem, modeled from the trident held by Neptune in a statue in Bologna’s Piazza Maggiore, was designed in 1920 by Mario Maserati, a fourth brother not otherwise connected to the company. Alfieri Maserati drove race cars for other manufacturers before settling down with his brothers to produce the first Maserati automobile, a race car named the Tipo 26 for the year of its debut. The most remarkable Maserati of the 1920s was the V4, a 16-cylinder race car that was clocked at 154 miles (248 km) per hour in 1929.
