Fiat Group, or Fiat S.p.A., is an Italian automobile manufacturer, engine manufacturer, financial and industrial group based in Turin, Northern Italy.

1899 Founded by a group of investors including Giovanni Agnelli, the company name FIAT is an acronym for Fabbrica Italiana Automobili Torino (Italian Car Factory of Turin), and it also means "let there be" in Latin.

Fiat was also an aircraft manufacturer at one time (Fiat Aircraft).

Agents in the UK were Fiat Motors and later Fiat (England). See those pages for more images.
