Aquila Italiana (founded as the Società Anonima Aquila and quickly renamed the Società Anonima Italiana Aquila) was an Italian automobile manufacturer from 1906 to 1917. The company was renamed again in 1909 to Aquila Anonima Italiana di L. Marsaglia after it was bought by a state – the Marsaglia part came from the name of the bank owner's son (Vincenzo Marsaglia, a talented automobile driver).
Designed by Giulio Cesare Cappa, the cars were big four- and six-cylinder models with ioe engines of an advanced type. There was an interruption in construction after 1908, but the company introduced new models in 1911; these featured 4192 cc six-cylinder engines and proved to be successful in many races. Among Aquila Italiana drivers were Meo Constantini (later to join Bugatti at Molsheim, where he became first a racing driver and later the Chef d'Equipe) and Carlo Masetti (Count Giulio Masetti's elder brother).
Production
In the year 1911, 55 vehicles were manufactured. [1] The company Aquila Italiana produced approximately 1,500 cars (across all models).
