Italdesign

Consumer Discretionary

Italdesign, formally Italdesign-Giugiaro S.p.A., is an Italian design and engineering company based in Moncalieri near Turin. It traces its roots to Studi Italiani Realizzazione Prototipi, founded on 13 February 1968 by Giorgetto Giugiaro and Aldo Mantovani. Best known for automobile design, it also offers product design, project management, styling, packaging, engineering, modeling, prototyping and testing services to manufacturers worldwide, and it created notable Volkswagen cars including the first Golf, Scirocco and Passat. Lamborghini, part of the Volkswagen Group through Audi, bought 90.1 percent in 2010 and the remaining shares in 2015 when Giugiaro left. A 2017 subsidiary, Italdesign Automobili Speciali, builds ultra low series collector cars, and in 2025 Lamborghini sold its stake to the American technology company UST. The article gives 917 employees as of 2019.
