Maserati was founded in 1914 and did well in racing. From the mid-50s, they began to mass-produce luxury and sports cars. The company was taken over by Citroen in 1968, but Citroen themselves had financial problems in 1974 when they were taken over by Peugeot. Maserati was taken over by De Tomaso, later Fiat - and from 2021 part of Stellantis.
