According to the latest reports, it appears that Chrysler is planning to sell over 50,000 Fiat 500 minicars in the United States in 2011, when the Italian Brand will make its return. For those who don’t know, Fiat controls 20% of Chrysler, and it is planning to build the 500 in Toluca, Mexico, while the engine will be manufactured in the United States. The debut in the U.S. will be made in December, at the 2010 LA Auto Show. The cabrio version of the Fiat 500 will make its debut in 2011. Chrysler is planning to open Fiat dealerships in 165 locations across the United States with the biggest small-car markets. "Our dealers will be able to interact with a group of individuals that are not part of their current customer base. These are individuals interested in Italian automotive design coupled with fuel efficient technology," said Laura Soave, Head of Fiat Brand North America. [via google]
