Once you get behind the wheel of a Maserati automobile, you’ll understand why the car manufacturer’s long-standing logo is a trident. The company’s logo is based on the Fountain of Neptune in Bologna, Italy’s Piazza Maggiore. With Neptune representing strength and vigor, the trident was a natural choice to represent the power and performance of Maserati cars like the Maserati Ghibli.
History of the Maserati Brand
The Maserati brothers founded the Maserati brand in Bologna in 1914. While four Maserati brothers established the brand that bears their name, only three were still living when the company was sold in 1937. After they bought the company, the Adolfo Orsi family relocated the car maker’s headquarters to Modena in 1940, where it still is today.

The Maserati story begins with a modest family and a passion for speed and has grown into one of the leading luxury car brands today. The company is based in Modena, Italy and is known for its racing, sports, and Grand Touring cars.
The Beginning of Maserati
In December of 1914, Officine Alfieri Maserati SA was founded in Bologna, Italy by brothers Alfieri, Ettore, and Ernesto Maserati. Their first major product was spark plugs. The Maserati emblem itself is modeled after the trident held by the Neptune statue in Bologna’s Piazza Maggiore. It was designed in 1920 by the 4th Maserati brother, Mario Maserati.
