Elnagh is an integral part of the history of the entire recreational vehicle industry with 70 years of activity behind it

 

ARCHITECTS OF IDEAS, CREATORS OF UNIVERSES

Before telling a story, Elnagh tells its vision, a point of view on the future that began when no one was talking about aesthetics, design and made in Italy. Elnagh is continuously listening. If you do not listen, you cannot be heard, just as if you do not observe, you cannot create any novelty. Every project is function and emotion, every detail is research and awareness: this is the sense of creating for Elnagh, drawing a movement of ideas around the journey.

1953 - BIRTH OF RISCIÒ

1953 was an especially important year for Elnagh, as it brought out Risciò, its first product with wheels wich would prove to be only the first in a long line of wheeled vehicles, leading up to the present day's caravans and motorhomes. The Risciò turn any type of motor vehicle into a delivery tricar, by means of a series of extremely simple operations: the ancestor of today's Piaggio "Ape".

1980 - THE ARRIVAL OF THE ENGINE

In the second half of the 1970s, the first signs of a decline in the demand for caravans were felt in Italy. Elnagh thus initiated numerous adaptations and initiatives for the study, the design and construction of a first series of motorized vehicles. The aim was achieved in 1978 thanks to "Briscola", a motorhome mounted on a Fiat chassis produced on an industrial scale with low prices. In 1980 the first integral model was finally presented, made starting from a bare chassis, equipped only with engine and steering.
