Maranello companies

There are four Super Car companies near Maranello. The most famous, of course, Ferrari, its factory is right in the center of the city.

The other big company is Lamborghini, which is a little further but still close enough to be included in this blog. The factory lays about 16 miles North-east of Maranello. Lamborghini makes too many beautiful cars to list them here. Two of my favorites are the Miura and the Countach The company is currently owned by the Volkswagen Group.

Eleven miles north of Maranello there is the Bugatti Factory. In 2006 Bugatti released the Worlds most amazing and probably heaviest Super Car ever, the 1001 horse-power monster Bugatti Veyron 16.4. It costs $1700000, goes from 0 to 60mph in 2.5 seconds and all the way to its top speed of 253 mph in just a second more (or something like that). This company is also owned by the Volkswagen Group.

The last car manufacturer based in the area is Pagani. Created by an Argentine-Italian Horacio Pagani it makes the Pagani Zonda, the craziest car in the world (my favorite). The company produces less than 20 cars a year, and all of the cars are sold out months before they're put together, and this brings the price up to $2.100.000 for the new Zonda R. The factory is located 8 miles to the east on Maranello.
