Weber carburetors, founded in Italy in 1923, gained prominence in the automotive industry by the late 1920s. Known for their advanced designs, especially the DCOE model, they became popular in sports and racing during the 1950s and 1960s. Although carburetors declined with the rise of fuel injection, Weber remains a favorite among classic car enthusiasts and tuners, celebrated for their performance and reliability. Today, they continue to be produced and supported in the automotive community.
