Woman behind the wheel of an Itala car, 1907. This car was powered by a giant 15 litre engine which generated 100 hp. Itala was formed in 1904 at Turin by Matteo Ceirano and Guido Bigio and began to produce large engined sporty cars, some of which enjoyed success in motor racing. Between the wars, production switched to smaller vehicles, but with limited success, and by 1934 financial difficulties had forced the company out of business.
