Now the family business of the Italian family has become a world legend.
The famous and memorable logo of Maserati cars is a trident of the statue of Neptune in Piazza Maggiore in Italian Bologna – a symbol of strength and energy. Red and blue are the colors of the famous city of Bologna, where the Maserati brothers were born.
