Italdesign Transitions to UST Ownership in 2026
Italdesign will transfer majority ownership to UST in 2026, enhancing collaboration in design and engineering. This partnership focuses on integrating AI and software technologies into automotive and other sectors, aiming for sustained growth.

In 2026, Italdesign will transition to UST, following Audi's announcement in December 2025 to sell a majority stake. The partnership aims to merge Italdesign's expertise in vehicle design, prototyping, and development with UST's strengths in artificial intelligence, software-defined vehicles, and digital ecosystems.
Italdesign has diversified into sectors such as Aerospace, Robotics, and Transportation Design, achieving an average annual revenue growth of over 15% from 2022 to 2025. UST will assume operational control, while Audi continues its collaboration and Italdesign retains its organization in Moncalieri. This shift could broaden Italdesign's market reach and enhance its technological capabilities.
