Let's continue with some more history. In 1888 the Welleyes motor car company was founded by Giovanni Battista Ceirano. After struggling with finances, he sold his plant, design, and patents to a very famous businessman Giovanni Agnelli, that ended up creating one of the most famous Italian companies. Which car company are we talking about?

It's interesting to think that Fabbrica Italiana Automobili Torino (FIAT) would've never existed if it weren't for Welleyes motor car, a manufacturer that no one ever talks about. The first Welleyes / F.I.A.T 4 HP car had a 679 cc engine and was capable of 22 mph.
