The same graphic also appears on the rear wheel rim. The seat, too, has been created specifically for this special edition, with the stylised Moto Guzzi Eagle and contrasting yellow stitching.

Moto Guzzi will celebrate the 105th anniversary of its foundation, and, above all, will usher in a new and crucial chapter in its history: a futuristic architectural masterpiece is born, encompassing 105 years of history without distorting, but rather enriching it, and demonstrating Moto Guzzi’s approach to innovation.

It will be a hyper-modern facility featuring cutting-edge technology, where the Moto Guzzi models of the 21st century will be manufactured, in the very same location where production has been taking place continuously since 1921. But it will also be a place where tradition and innovation meet, combining corporate culture and advanced technical solutions.
The new Moto Guzzi Museum will be home to the memory of a history that is unique in the world, founded upon technology, design and continuous innovation.

Mandello del Lario, 28 August 2026 – One of the most important events in Moto Guzzi’s history is drawing closer every day: in less than a week, on Thursday 3 September, the biggest edition of the GMG – Moto Guzzi World Days – in the history of the event will kick off, marking the inauguration of the new, hyper-modern site in Mandello del Lario.
Moto Guzzi is celebrating the 105th anniversary of its foundation, and above all, is ushering in a crucial new chapter in its history. A unique and futuristic work of industrial architecture has been created, drawing on over a century of history, not distorting it but rather enriching it, and reflecting precisely how Moto Guzzi has always conceived innovation. A place to create, experiment, enjoy experiences and feel real emotion, where the love for a brand blends with a vision of the future: the new home of Moto Guzzi, which will serve as our base for the next 105 years.
It is an extremely modern, hi-tech facility, where the Moto Guzzi models of the 21st century will roll off the production line, in the very same place where they have been manufactured without interruption since 1921. But it is also a place where tradition and innovation meet, and where corporate culture and cutting-edge technology come together.
Moto Guzzi technological benchmark in the world motorcycle industry
A 3,000 SQ.M EXHIBITION SPACE, AN INNOVATIVE INDUSTRIAL DESIGN PROJECT, A HUB FOR CULTURE, CREATIVITY AND ENTERTAINMENT
· 5 YEARS OF WORK
· INVESTMENTS EXCEEDING 50 MILLION EURO
· PRODUCTION CAPACITY RAISED TO OVER 30,000 BIKES A YEAR
· FACTORY AREA INCREASED TO 38,000 SQ.M
· 4,200 SQ.M OF NEW MULTI-PURPOSE SPACES OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
Michele Colaninno, Piaggio Group CEO: “It is with great pride and a touch of madness that, after almost five years of hard work and an investment of over 50 million euro, we are launching the new chapter in the life of Moto Guzzi. The project has involved a complete transformation of the factory and the museum, and is the brainchild of Greg Lynn, a friend and internationally renowned architect, with whom we have worked to fuse metal and robots, silence and art.
Overlooking the shores of Lake Como, in Mandello del Lario, surrounded by the past and the present, yet also one of the most cutting-edge motorcycle factories, a technological benchmark in the global motorcycle industry. This was a by no means easy challenge, which, together, we have successfully completed. Moto Guzzi is one of the world’s best loved and iconic motorbike brands: anyone who rides a Moto Guzzi is riding through over a century of Italian history, with all our memories and all our hopes for the future.”
Mandello del Lario (Lecco), 2 September 2026 – After almost 5 years of work and investments totalling more than 50 million euro, the new home of Moto Guzzi – still proudly located, as it has been since its foundation in 1921, in Mandello del Lario, on the Lecco side of Lake Como – has made its debut.
The institutional inauguration was attended by the Governor of the Region of Lombardy, Attilio Fontana, leading local dignitaries, the Executive Chairman of the Piaggio Group, Matteo Colaninno, and the Piaggio Group CEO, Michele Colaninno.
Moto Guzzi’s new home in Mandello del Lario was designed and engineered by a world class team led by architect Greg Lynn* and is one of the most ambitious initiatives in the recent history of industrial architecture.
It is not just a new factory, nor simply a new museum, but a place where ingenuity and technology, legend and passion come together to generate new ideas, to imagine and build the future.
In the place where Moto Guzzi was founded 105 years ago, between the mountains and the lake, the American designer – a former winner of the Golden Lion at the Venice Architecture Biennale – has created a multifunctional hub where innovation, experimentation and history come together to create a unique cultural space. A visionary project, which opens the doors to a completely new experience, merging technology and design in a futuristic harmony.
Moto Guzzi’s new home goes far beyond its original function of production and preserving its heritage. It has been designed to create, experiment, enjoy experiences and stir emotions. A site where ideas can come together and different visions can be shared, where a love for a historic brand goes hand in hand with a vision of the future, to imagine that future and help bring it to life.
THE NEW FACILITY
The new production facility, designed with a constant focus on environmental sustainability and efficient use of resources, is equipped with 1,300 square metres of photovoltaic panels, makes the most of natural light and is built to Class A standards. It is situated within the same industrial site where Moto Guzzi motorbikes have always been constructed. The red gate on Via Parodi, which has been the entrance for Moto Guzzi’s technicians, workers, engineers and riders since 1921, and which over the years has become a place of pilgrimage for motorcyclists from all over the world, will remain in place, a symbol of continuity with a unique company history. But now, beyond that entrance, after almost five years of work, is a state-of-the-art factory, a new global benchmark for the motorcycle industry.
The factory complex is situated at the heart of the original site, transforming it completely but harmoniously, and respecting both its history and its architecture. It comprises 5,500 square metres of new industrial buildings (bringing the total factory area to 38,000 square metres), so boosting production capacity to more than 30,000 vehicles a year, as well as 380 square metres of new office space.
The latest-generation automated engine assembly lines are not a refurbishment of existing buildings, but a completely new facility equipped with cutting-edge technology.
The final motorcycle assembly plant is linked to the engine shop by a sophisticated, fully robotised conveyor system. Here, at the end of the production line, the motorbikes are handed over to kilo™ ground drones, designed and manufactured in Boston by Piaggio Fast Forward (PFF), and sent for final testing, thereby keeping the physical demands on workers to a minimum and maximising safety. The entire production process complies with the highest manufacturing quality standards.
THE NEW MUSEUM
Adjacent to the factory, in entirely new premises, is the Moto Guzzi Museum.
The new 3,000 sq.m building that houses the museum takes its inspiration from the technical and metallic aesthetic of the motorbikes produced in Mandello: many of the shapes and finishes of the spacious, light-filled new spaces echo the characteristics of the bikes, creating a visual and material link between the architecture and the brand’s identity.
A visit to the collection will be an extraordinary journey through the history of motorcycling, thanks to the rarity of the fascinating models on display: more than 160 meticulously restored two-wheelers, ranging from the G.P. – a unique world prototype, whose construction marked the beginning of the Moto Guzzi story – right up to current production, including models that have become legendary and the racing bikes that won 14 MotoGP World Championship titles.
The various sections – dedicated to cinema, racing, travel, the arts, and military and police vehicles – provide a new type of museum experience, allowing visitors to explore more than one hundred years of social, cultural, technological and design change through the history and models of Moto Guzzi. The Museum will be a vibrant, contemporary space, directly linked to Moto Guzzi’s present, as visitors will have a window on the brand-new assembly lines so that they can follow the production process of every new motorbike.
NEW MULTI-PURPOSE SPACES OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
The new spaces also include extensive outdoor areas, the restored Galleria del Vento wind tunnel and a splendid raised terrace overlooking the large central piazza and featuring a monumental mosaic of the Moto Guzzi eagle.
The outdoor spaces are pedestrianised and intended for guests, with two exclusive tree-lined squares forming an iconic promenade and a path offering views of the factory in full operation.
All these areas are within the original perimeter of the factory and have been designed to welcome visitors from around the world, all year round. The new Moto Guzzi is a modern hub that also comprises the large Motoplex Store, a café, spaces for workshops and events, and a new auditorium, for a total of over 4,200 square metres.
The new facilities and the new Museum in Mandello del Lario are not a refurbishment of a historic factory but the creation of a new global benchmark in motorbike manufacturing and brand experience, a location of great emotional and cultural significance, and a unique destination for Guzzi bikers and motorbike enthusiasts from all over the world.
THIS IS MOTO GUZZI
NOT A NEW FACTORY,
NOT A NEW MUSEUM.
THIS IS HOME,
THIS IS MOTO GUZZI.
Moto Guzzi roars into its second century with a visionary project, opening the door to a new experience spanning industry, museum and culture.
A place that encapsulates a unique history, one which shapes the future.
The new home of Moto Guzzi in Mandello del Lario is inaugurated, designed by American architect Greg Lynn, and ranks among the most ambitious in the recent history of industrial architecture.
It is not merely a new factory, nor simply a museum – rather, it is a place where ingenuity, technology, legend and passion combine, generating new ideas which serve as the foundation for imagining and building the future.
In the same place where Moto Guzzi was first founded 105 years ago, tucked between the mountains and the lake, the American designer, who counts the Venice Architecture Biennale Golden Lion among his accolades, has conceived a multifunctional hub where innovation, experimentation and history meet, creating a unique cultural location. A visionary project that paves the way for a completely new experience, blending technology and design to create a harmonious, futuristic space.
Moto Guzzi’s new home goes far beyond its original purpose of manufacturing the brand’s famous motorcycles and preserving its heritage. It is a place designed for creating, experimenting, enjoying experiences and inspiring emotions. A place where ideas meet and different visions are exchanged, where the love for a historic brand goes hand in hand with a vision of the future, bringing it to life.
This one-of-a-kind location, set within a landscape of extraordinary beauty, will be Moto Guzzi’s new home, where the brand will welcome visitors for the next 105 years – as many as have passed since 1921, the year the company was founded.
The new production facility, designed with an unwavering focus on environmental sustainability and the efficient use of resources, is located within the same industrial site where Moto Guzzi has always manufactured its motorbikes. The red gate on Via Parodi, the entrance for Moto Guzzi’s technicians, workers, engineers and riders since 1921 which has become a place of pilgrimage for motorcyclists from all over the world, will remain in its place as a symbol of continuity, symbolising the company’s unique history. But beyond this iconic entrance, after nearly five years of work, there is now a state-of-the-art factory, set to serve as a new global benchmark for the motorcycling industry.
This manufacturing facility is located at the heart of the original site, transforming it completely whilst preserving a sense of harmony and respect for the brand’s history and original architecture. It features 5,500 square metres of new industrial buildings (making a total of 38,000 square metres of factory space) and 380 square metres of offices.
The cutting-edge automated engine assembly lines are not the result of the refurbishment of existing structures: instead, they are part of an entirely new plant, boasting the very latest technologies.
The final motorcycle assembly line is connected to the engine workshop by a sophisticated, fully robotised conveyor system. Here, at the end of the production line, the motorbikes are collected by Kilo robots, designed and built in Boston by Piaggio Fast Forward (PFF), before being sent for final testing. The entire production process adheres to the most exacting quality standards at every stage of manufacture.
Adjacent to the factory, in a series of brand-new spaces, is the new home of the Moto Guzzi Museum. The new 3,000-square-metre building that houses it is inspired by the technical, metallic visual language of the motorcycles created in Mandello, and many of the shapes and finishes in the spacious, light-filled exhibition areas echo the details that characterise bikes themselves, creating a visual and material link between the architecture and the brand’s identity.
The light from the foothills of the Alps and the lake takes centre stage, flooding the new premises. The unique design of the exhibition spaces and the contemporary layout is set to offer visitors a fresh perspective on the brand’s history and evolution, bringing vital energy to Moto Guzzi’s industrial heritage and renewing the social and economic impact it has had on the local area for more than a century. The expansive exhibition halls will host events that will transform the museum into a place of learning, experimentation, social togetherness and civic development.
A visit to the collection will take visitors on an extraordinary journey through the history of motorcycling, as they are seduced by the charm and rarity of the models on display: over 160 meticulously restored motorcycles, ranging from the G.P., a one-of-a-kind prototype whose construction marked the beginning of Moto Guzzi’s history, through to the current range, including models that have gained mythical status, alongside the racing bikes that have won 14 world titles in the MotoGP World Championship.
The various sections – such as those dedicated to cinema, competitions, travel, the arts, and military and police vehicles – offer a novel museum experience, allowing visitors to explore over a century of evolution in society, habits, technology and design through the history and models of Moto Guzzi. The museum will be a lively, contemporary space, directly connected to Moto Guzzi’s present, enabling visitors to follow the production process of every new motorbike thanks to the opportunity to view the brand-new assembly lines.
The new spaces also include extensive outdoor areas, the restored Wind Tunnel and a magnificent raised terrace looking out over the large central square, which is embellished with a giant mosaic of the Moto Guzzi eagle.
The outdoor areas are pedestrianised and dedicated to guests, spanning approximately 4,200 square metres, with two exclusive squares planted with 35 tall trees, creating a promenade that is already iconic, along with a walkway offering views of the factory in full production.
These spaces, all situated within the factory’s original perimeter, are designed to welcome visitors from all over the world, throughout the year. The new Moto Guzzi premises serve as an ultra-modern hub that also includes the spacious Motoplex Store dedicated to shopping, along with a café, areas for workshops and events, and a new auditorium, covering a total of more than 1,200 square metres.
The new facilities and the new museum in Mandello del Lario do not simply represent the refurbishment of a historic factory – they are a new global benchmark in the world of motorcycle manufacturing and the brand experience; a place of profound emotional and cultural significance, and a unique destination for Moto Guzzi enthusiasts and motorbike fans from all over the world.
An unmistakable design
Solid, compact and powerful, the Moto Guzzi heritage can be seen in every detail. From its iconic “Compact Block” V-Twin engine to its unique single-sided swing-arm and its distinctive eagle-shaped DRL, each element is designed to bring into being Stelvio.
Born to travel
Stelvio was designed to allow you to make the most of every ride and expand your horizons without boundaries, thanks to its 21-litre tank with a range of over 400 km.

No road is off limits
Comfort is found in every detail of the Stelvio and no road is off limits, regardless of the load. Thanks to the 19-inch front wheel, 170-mm suspension travel, a spacious saddle sitting just 830 mm off the ground, electrically adjustable windshield and bags with built-in clips.
