9. A family at war

Fiat starts to turn a corner, but the Agnelli hit the headlines for all the wrong reasons as the inheritance battle waged between the empire’s heir apparent – John Elkann – and his own mother intensifies. Plus, one family member goes off the rails and causes a very public scandal, and the mood in Italy starts to turn on the family as the business becomes more global.
