Fiat’s share of the European market shrunk from 9.4 per cent in 2000 to 5.8 per cent in the summer of 2004. At this point Sergio Marchionne was appointed as Fiat Chief Executive. By March 2009 their market share had expanded back to 9.1%.
In January 2009, the Fiat Group acquired a 20% stake in US automaker Chrysler LLC.[18] The deal will see the return of the Fiat brand to North America after a 25 year absence. The first Fiat-branded model to appear in the US is expected to be the popular Fiat Nuova 500 city car. Reports currently suggest the Fiat Nuova 500 model will be built at Chrysler’s assembly plant in Toluca, Mexico.
