Economic Audit - Maserati S.p.A.

Domain: Economic - Economic Entity scope: Maserati S.p.A. (Modena, Italy), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Stellantis N.V. Maserati-brand’s OWN economic footprint is in scope; the independent Israeli importer (Samelet / Auto Italia IL) is flagged importer-level (arm’s-length, not Maserati-corporate), and Stellantis N.V. parent-level shareholders and group activity (Israel Innovation Authority MoU, Vayyar) are documented and attributed at parent level. Compiled: 2026-06-21 Method: Live web search only

Supply Chain & Sourcing Relationships

Maserati S.p.A. manufactures its full vehicle range in Italy under a publicly stated “100% Engineered and Made in Italy” strategic commitment, with production at Modena and Turin (Mirafiori).1 No public evidence was identified of any Israeli-domiciled entity supplying components, materials, or sub-assemblies directly to Maserati S.p.A. as a named Maserati-brand supplier.

Stellantis parent-level attribution: Stellantis (via FCA Italy S.p.A.) signed an MoU with the Israel Innovation Authority on 7 April 2021, establishing a framework for identifying Israeli startups in driving assistance, cybersecurity, and Industry 4.0;23 and Vayyar Imaging (Israeli 4D in-cabin radar) was recognised in Stellantis’s 2023 Venture Awards as an innovation partner.4 Neither the MoU nor the Vayyar relationship names Maserati as a specific counterparty; both sit at Stellantis group level and are attributed as parent-level context only. No Maserati-brand-specific procurement from Israeli suppliers was identified.

Product Origin, Labeling & Regulatory Compliance

All Maserati vehicles sold in Israel are manufactured in Italy and imported as finished units by an independent local importer (see Operational Presence below). No evidence of Israeli production, co-production, or labelling-compliance issues specific to goods produced in or associated with Israeli territory was identified; vehicles sold in the Israeli market bear Italian origin, consistent with Maserati’s Italy-only manufacturing base.1 No Israeli-origin components incorporated in Maserati vehicles were identified that would raise product-origin compliance concerns.

Investment, Capital & Financial Exposure

Maserati S.p.A. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Stellantis N.V. and holds no independently disclosed investment positions.5 No public evidence was identified of any Maserati-brand-level direct investment, joint venture, real-estate holding, or financial stake in Israel or Israeli entities.

Stellantis parent-level attribution: Stellantis N.V.’s major shareholders include Exor N.V. (the Agnelli family investment vehicle, ~14.2%), Peugeot Invest/EPF (~7%), and Bpifrance (the French state bank, ~6%) - none Israeli.6 These shareholder relationships are parent-level and do not constitute Maserati-brand economic exposure to Israel. No Maserati-brand-level capital flows, loans, or financial instruments directed at Israeli counterparties were identified.

Operational Presence & Market Activity

Importer identity (importer-vs-corporate distinction). Maserati vehicles are sold in Israel through Samelet (Mediterranean Car Agency) / Auto Italia IL, an independent privately-held Israeli automotive importer founded in 1946 and owned by the Levi family.7 Samelet acquired a partial stake in Auto Italia (the entity previously holding the Ferrari and Maserati franchise) in 2014 and completed full acquisition by end-2019, merging the Ferrari and Maserati brands into its own operations; Samelet also imports Subaru, Fiat, Jeep, Alfa Romeo, Ram, Chrysler, Iveco, and Abarth for the Israeli market.7

Critical corporate distinction: Samelet / Auto Italia IL is an independent Israeli importer, not a Maserati-owned or Stellantis-owned National Sales Company. Maserati S.p.A. has no directly-owned Israeli subsidiary, retail outlet, or corporate office. The relationship is an arm’s-length importer arrangement - Samelet purchases finished vehicles from Maserati/Stellantis distribution and sells them on the Israeli market under franchise licence - so the economic benefit to Maserati consists of wholesale vehicle revenue received in Italy from an independent counterparty, a standard arm’s-length export transaction. Maserati vehicles are currently offered across multiple model lines in Israel (GranTurismo, GranCabrio, Ghibli, Quattroporte, Levante, Grecale, MC20 Cielo), with a dealership in Herzliya and Israeli list prices ranging approximately ILS 233,680–920,000.8910 No Maserati-brand-operated entity, facility, or directly employed staff in Israel was identified.

Corporate Structure & Foundational Ties

Maserati S.p.A. is incorporated in Italy (Modena) and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Stellantis N.V., the Dutch-registered parent created in January 2021 through the merger of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and PSA Group.5 Maserati has no independent stock listing, no separate Israeli shareholder register, and no documented structural ties to Israeli state institutions or Israeli capital. Stellantis N.V.’s major institutional shareholders (Exor - Agnelli family; Peugeot Invest; Bpifrance - French state) are parent-level and none are Israeli; flagged as parent-level context only.6 No foundational shareholding, founding-era relationship, or board-level structural tie between Maserati S.p.A. and Israeli entities was identified.

Profit Repatriation & Economic Contribution

As a wholly-owned subsidiary, Maserati S.p.A. does not publish standalone financial statements or dividend flows; results are consolidated into Stellantis N.V. group accounts.5 Revenue from Israeli vehicle sales flows from the Israeli market to Samelet (independent importer), and a portion - the wholesale vehicle price - flows to Maserati/Stellantis distribution in Italy, representing standard export income from a country-agnostic commercial sales channel. No Maserati-brand-level profit-repatriation arrangements, royalty flows, or tax structuring specific to Israel were identified, and no evidence was identified of Maserati contributing to Israeli government revenue, Israeli state bonds, or Israeli public institutions through dedicated economic arrangements. The Israeli luxury-car market was projected at approximately USD 106 million total revenue in 2025; Maserati’s ultra-niche, low-volume share is not publicly broken out and its contribution to Israeli state revenue via vehicle taxes would be marginal.11
