Simbir is in fact the name of the off-road luxury version that the Russian Uaz and De Tomaso were working hard to impose on the world market. An unusual combination, which envisaged a five-year production of 20,000 cars for a turnover of over 350 million euros and the creation of about 200 jobs. For this new car, a new factory was being specifically created in Cutro, in Calabria, to revive the history of what can be considered to all intents and purposes the fourth Modena car manufacturer.

The beginnings of De Tomaso date back to the mid-1950s with the arrival in our city of Alejandro, an Argentinian driver who had already raced with Maserati cars in his homeland. However, it will be above all in the following years that he will inextricably link his name to that of the Casa del Tridente which, with the help of GEPI, the state body for rescuing companies in difficulty, he will take over and manage starting from 1975 (with the presidency political appointment, around 1976-’77, by Romano Prodi) until the sale in 1993 of 100% of the share package to Fiat Auto, a sale to which De Tomaso will be forced also due to the terrible stroke that will jeopardize his life and which will force him into permanent disability.
But the memory of Argentina has never been lost: starting with the brand, in which the black lines represent the symbol with which the horses were branded in the large estate of the maternal family, against the white-blue background of the national colours. And it also remains in the name of Alejandro’s son, Santiago De Tomaso, who still has the task of continuing his father’s business in the Modena factory in Viale Virgilio where the company museum is also located (and where the Moto Guzzi offices were also located , which was part of the group from 1981 to 1995, as was Benelli; Innocenti of Lambrate was also part of it for a certain period, also taken over – like Maserati – with the support of GEPI).
