Quattroruote, change at the top: Alessandro Lago new editor-in-chief

There is a change at the top of Quattroruote, where, from September, Alessandro Lago will sit in the editor-in-chief's chair. Gian Luca Pellegrini, who has led Quattroruote since 2014, will take over as automotive editorial director, maintaining the editorship of Ruoteclassiche and Quattroruote Fleet&Business. At Lago's side is instead confirmed deputy editor Marco Pascali.

"This new configuration," commented publisher and president of Editoriale Domus Cav. Lav. Giovanna Mazzocchi - is a decisive step forward: a strategic as well as operational evolution that reinforces the development and digital presence as well as the solidity and centrality of the entire Quattroruote system".

It will be to Mazzocchi that both Alessandro Lago and Gian Luca Pellegrini will answer directly. Lago, a 42-year-old journalist from Rome and an expert in automotive and innovation, has a 20-year career in mobility reporting. After studying economics and business at the University of Rome Tor Vergata and specialising in marketing at the Montpellier Business School, in 2000 he founded OmniAuto.it, of which he became CEO and director. From 2009 to 2018 he directed OmniAuto.it and OmniFurgone.it, contributing to the digital growth of the brand and the development of YouTube channels. In 2018 he became director of Motor1.com Italia and, the following year, also of InsideEVs.it. Since September 2023, he has been director of Motor1.com Europe, coordinating the editorial development of the network in Germany, France, Spain, Turkey and the UK. Italian juror of the World Car Award, he conceived and directed for four years the Electric Days, the first Italian event dedicated to electrified mobility.
