Italian company Iso (1953-1974) was initially named 'Isothermos' (in thermodynamics: area of equal temperature) and manufactured refrigeration units before World War II. The company was originally founded in Genoa in 1939, but was transferred to Bresso (8 kilometres from Milan) in 1942 by Renzo Rivolta (1908-1966). He was an Italian engineer, who developed the Isetta bubble car (Iso Isetta (1953–56)) and sold the car in Italy. The car became famous through the licensed production at BMW (BMW Isetta (1955–62)). Renzo Rivolta died in 1966, and his son, Piero, took over as managing director. At the start of 1973 the Rivolta family ceded the business to an Italian American financier named Ivo Pera, who promised to bring American management know-how to the firm. Iso cars are known for the iconic Isetta bubble car of the 1950s, and for a number of powerful performance cars in the 1960s and early 1970s.
