Investindustrial was reportedly competing with Mahindra for a stake in Aston Martin.
Andrea C. Bonomi, Senior Principal at Investindustrial, said: “We are delighted to form part of this iconic global, but quintessentially British brand. We are looking forward to working with the management and Investment Dar to achieve a similar transformation and rejuvenation that we achieved with Ducati, by expanding the model range and strengthening the dealership network, throughout the world.”
Investindustrial sold high-end motorcycle brand Ducati to Audi earlier this year.
