Fiat aumenta suas ações na Chrysler

Montadora italiana adquire mais papéis e agora acumula 53,5% de participação

A matriz da Fiat anunciou nesta quinta-feira (21) a compra de mais 1,5% dos papéis da norte-americana Chrysler, dando continuidade ao processo de fusão entre as montadoras. De acordo com a fábrica italiana, foram pagos mais US$ 125 milhões ao governo canadense, que detinha pequena participação no grupo formado por Chrysler, Dodge e Jeep.

A Fiat também informou o pagamento de outros US$ 500 milhões ao governo dos Estados Unidos, correspondentes a 6% das ações. Com a concretização do negócio, a fábrica italiana passa a ter 53,5% das ações de Chrysler e já é a majoritária – recentemente o presidente da Fiat, Sergio Marchionne, disse inclusive que as montadoras serão geridas conjuntamente.

Em 2009, no ápice da crise mundial, o governo do presidente Barack Obama “injetou” US$ 12,5 bilhões para salvar a Chrysler da falência – assim como o fez com a General Motors. Com os acordos firmados com a Fiat, o governo norte-americano irá receber de volta US$ 11,2 bilhões – US$ 1,3 bilhão a menos, o que pode ser considerado lucro, já que o capital evitou uma demissão em massa.

The partnership meant Fiat putting cash into Chrysler and would retool a Chrysler plant to produce Fiat models to be sold in the US. Fiat also provided engine and transmission technology that could allow the introduction of new and fuel-efficient small cars. At a time when larger and more global rivals such as Toyota, Volkswagen and Renault-Nissan are competing on the market, Fiat and Chrysler are uniting their efforts to become a viable competitor.

As far as the competitors go, the main rival would be the newly redesigned Ford Ka, with whom the 500 shares basic underpinnings. With so much in common, how is it possible to split the two apart? Well firstly, the new Ford Ka slightly annoyed me by evolving into nothing more than a baby Fiesta, rather than a perfectly serviceable model in its own right. Secondly, the Fiat 500 does everything just a little better than the Ka. It handles better, feels nippier and looks a lot better than the characterless shell the Ka has become. The only downside is that the 500 is slightly more expensive, but remember that you're paying for style here people!

The exterior styling 2012 Fiat 500

Soave has been with the North American Volkswagen team for several years, but Fiat recently hired her to take control of the brand in the United States. She is a first-generation Italian-American with a lot of her family still in Italy. She commented, "This is not just a job for me, it is a passion and very near and dear to my heart." She showed a photo on the large screen, of her as a small girl standing on the hood of a Fiat back in Italy.

The exterior styling is basically unchanged from the past few years of the European model. Like the Mini-Cooper, it is considered "retro" and looks very similar to the little 1957 model that opened the press conference. Changes that are not obvious to the eye are abundant, however. These include a redesigned body structure that meets American regulatory requirements for crashworthiness. The cabin is quieter, in response to US customers demand for quietness. The floor, trunk, and instrument include new sound-deadening materials. There are new body and door seals as well as hydraulic powertrain mounts that help minimize engine vibrations.
