Automobilistiche

Automobilistiche is the feminine plural form of the Italian adjective automobilistico, used to describe things related to automobiles or the automotive industry. The base word automobilistico comes from automobile plus the suffix -istico, indicating relation or characteristic. In Italian, adjectives agree with the nouns they modify in gender and number, so automobilistiche is used with feminine plural nouns such as aziende automobilistiche (car manufacturers), case automobilistiche (car companies), industrie automobilistiche (automotive industries), or tecnologie automobilistiche (automotive technologies). The masculine plural form is automobilistici and the feminine singular form is automobilistica.

In practice, automobilistiche appears in professional, journalistic, and academic contexts when discussing sectors, products, or events within the car sector. It is less common as a stand-alone noun; the constructions typically use a noun followed by the adjective, for example industria automobilistica or settore automobilistico. The term is closely tied to discussions of manufacturing, design, regulation, and market trends within the automotive field, and it remains a standard descriptor in Italian-language sources about cars and their industry.
