In 1919, three brothers, Maurizio, Giacomo and Carlo Temperino, set up a factory in Turin to build small, two-seater runabouts powered by a two-cylinder air-cooled engine. The 8/10 HP was the firm’s first model and enjoyed a certain measure of success, both in Italy and abroad, on account of its easy handling and low running cost. A sports car version, too, chalked up a number of victories, including the Sassi-Superga (Turin) hill climb in 1919, and the 256-km Sestrières Tour in the following year at an average speed of 52.325 km/h.
