Name originThe company carries the surname of its founder, Giovanni Bertone, who set up a carriage building and repair shop in Turin in 1912. His son Giuseppe, known as Nuccio, later led the firm, so the name stayed in the family for generations.The name joins the Italian word for car with Bianchi, the Milan firm founded by Edoardo Bianchi in 1885. The first Autobianchi model, the Bianchina, was named as a tribute to Edoardo Bianchi's first car of 1899.
