Brand profile
Sports car manufacturer and racing team
Ferrari is an Italian sports car manufacturer based in Maranello. Its earliest entity, the racing team Scuderia Ferrari, was founded by Enzo Ferrari in 1929.
Enzo Ferrari founded the company in 1939; it built its first car in 1940, adopted its current name in 1945 and began producing its line of road cars in 1947. Fiat bought 50 percent of the shares in 1969, and Ferrari was spun off from Fiat Chrysler Automobiles in 2016.
The prancing horse is shown either as a shield, with the Italian tricolour above the horse and the initials SF (Scuderia Ferrari) below, or as a rectangle with the word Ferrari, in the company’s own typeface, in place of the initials.

Design context
In Enzo Ferrari’s account, after a 1923 race win in Ravenna the family of the First World War pilot Francesco Baracca, who had painted the horse on his aircraft, visited him, and Baracca’s mother suggested he use the horse as a good-luck charm.
According to the history of Scuderia Ferrari, the prancing horse first appeared at the 1932 Spa 24 Hours in Belgium, on two Alfa Romeo 8C 2300 Spiders that finished first and second.
Minor details of the horse have changed many times, while its overall shape has stayed consistent.
