Innocenti was not only about the Lambretta. The company was a giant industrial complex consisting of 3 main divisions - the Scooter division which we all know and love, the manufacture of cars under license from BMC (later British Leyland) and a heavy engineering division. After the split up of the business the heavy engineering divsion was renamed INNSE (Innocenti Sant'Eustacchio) and continues to this day. Note the Innocenti logo on the large machine in the right hand photo. INNSE has passed through a few hands and now seems to be owned by the Camozzi Group.
