Pininfarina is synonymous with refined Turinese elegance in the Savoy tradition. Founded in 1930, it drew much inspiration from the city that was the capital of the Kingdom of Italy from 1861 to 1864, in an era that, influenced by French grandeur, was characterized by the pursuit of taste and detail. All of Pininfarina's road and race cars bear these traits, so much so that they resemble true works of art. This capacity to convey elegance and dynamicity peaked with the little Cisitalia 202, which the New York Museum of Modern Art (the famous MoMA), chose to exhibit as a symbol of the style that accompanied the post-war rebirth of the automobile.
