Translation, we have a lot of ex-GM people who were cast off and now work in Auburn Hills. They have combined with the those who survived the Daimler siege and now everyone wants to acquit themselves.

Funny given Gianni Agnelli (John’s Grandfather, FIAT Chairman) was consider by many to have“Larger than life Personality” personality.
Do you see Buffett or Bill Ford in John?
 
If I was writing the script, I would leverage the Free2Move service so there would be Fiat 500e battery electrics, along with Jeep Renegade and Compass hybrid models in the North American fleet. This would help familiarize consumers to these products. The California compliance 500e created some unintended but positive situations. Federalizing the new Fiat 500e and putting it the Free2Move fleet will help defray the cost of regulatory compliance. Qualify and permit dealers outside the regular Fiat boutique franchise to sell and service the new Fiat 500e along with other models adapted and equipped for F2M service. Continue the boutique dealers in regions were they work well and sell the rumored Abarth electric along side the fancier Fiat and Alfa Romeo models.

Stellantis could develop an entry level model for North America with F2M in mind as well. The new baby Jeep is mostly likely to small to play here, but the front drive mild hybrid Jeeps would due. In Europe the mild hybrid system available on a higher trim line, here i would offer with a lower level trim as well.
