Magneti Marelli Logo History
Magneti Marelli has an interesting name and while the reference to its founder Ercole Marelli is apparent, the history behind the other half of the name isn’t well known.
Ercole Marelli had a knack for mechanics and his constant experiments in this direction led him to file a patent for start magnets in 1916. These magnets and magnetos were used in the automotive and aviation industries. Marelli received the patent in 1918 and it was in 1919 that Fabbrica italiana Magneti Marelli was established with Ercole and Fiat splitting the shareholding equally between them. Since the company has its roots in magnets, the ‘Magneti’ in its name is only logical.

The stylized letters are written in different typefaces to create an oval outline. As mentioned above, this is largely how the logo appeared in its early days and has remained the same.
