Auto Italia magazine is dedicated to the owner, collector and admirer of Italian cars. From Fiat to Ferrari and Alfa Romeo to Zagato, all marques presented in this high quality publication are supported by specially commissioned original photography.

Each issue is brought to you by a team of writers and photographers who have a passion for all things Italian; the country, the lifestyle, the cars. Each one of them has a background of either Italian car ownership, motor racing or engineering.

The informative content covers new car launches, road and track tests of historic, classic and current range cars, competition cars, buyers guides and interviews with prominent personalities.

Auto Italia is a collectable, continuous history of the Italian automotive industry and is unique in publishing in-depth features on the specialist coachbuilders that created a seemingly endless catalogue of vehicles. Many of these cars are unknown to even the most dedicated Italian car enthusiast and are often presented with previously unpublished archive photography.

Whatever your particular interest is,
if you like Italian cars then you will love Auto Italia.

AutoItalia Magazine

Issue 353 Our cover car this month is the sublime Maserati A6G/54 Zagato – and after driving it, we think it might be the best Gran Turismo car of the 1950s, setting the scene for later Ferraris. Speaking of Maranello’s finest, we have the full story of Nicola Materazzi, the man who persuaded Enzo Ferrari to turbocharge his cars, from F1 to the 288 GTO and F40. There’s a competition flavour to two big stories this month, as we test drive an Alfa Romeo 75 built for hillclimbs and sprints, and tell the story of Lancia’s ‘forgotten’ 1970s rally hero, the Beta Coupe Gr.4. Back down to earth, we enjoy a spin in a lovely Fiat 850 Spider and guide you through buying a used Fiat 500X. And we also answer the burning question: which is the best Italian hot hatchback you can currently buy – Alfa Junior Veloce or Abarth 600e Scorpionissima? The 2025 show season is now well underway, too, as we bring you all the latest event reports and news from the Italian car world. Bellissima! CONTENTS MASERATI A6G ZAGATO – Possibly the best Gran Turismo car of the 1950s ALFA ROMEO 75 – Testing an Alfa 75 built for hillclimbs and sprints ALFA ROMEO JUNIOR V ABARTH 600E – 280hp sizzling siblings go head-to-head, but which is better? LANCIA BETA GR.4 RALLY – A rare piece of rallying history breaks cover: the forgotten Beta Coupe FIAT 850 SPIDER – Fiat’s small 1960s sports car really punched above its weight FERRARI TURBO STORY – The story of Nicola Materazzi, the man who turbocharged Ferrari FIAT 500X BUYERS’ GUIDE – We bring you a full buying guide to the useful SUV TEAM CARS – Owning a Fiat 500X LET THERE BE LIGHT – Lighting pioneers and eyebrow-raisers AMTS LINGOTTO – Classic car show returns to the home of Fiat in Turin TOUR AUTO 2025 – From Paris to Nice.
