Upcoming Alfa and Maserati sedans to share platform
Posted Nov 23rd 2006 2:17PM by Noah Joseph
Alfa Romeo's flagship 169 sedan is scheduled to replace the ageing 166 in 2009, but conflicting speculation has suggested that the luxury sedan could be based on either a stretched 159 chassis or on the upcoming Maserati Quattroporte successor. The latest reports coming out of Italy suggest it'll be sharing with the larger trident rather than the smaller Alfa.
The Fiat Group that dominates the Italian automotive industry has traditionally kept their brands separate, refusing to share most components, let alone platforms, in a bid to keep the marques distinct from each other and steer well clear of the increasingly popular trend of badge engineering. But in recent years, that trend has been reversing even in Turin. Maseratis started sharing components with Ferrari and now with Alfa Romeo, Fiat has been partnering with PSA and Suzuki on new models, and an upcoming Alfa hatchback will be based on the Fiat Punto. So with Maserati still lagging in profitability and Alfa trying to regain its prestige, it's no wonder they've decided to go this route for the upcoming 169 and Quattroporte sedans.
Together with the thrilling 8C Competizione sports car, the 169 marks Alfa Romeo's return to rear-drive after 15 years of horses pulling from the front.
AutoCar je napisal/-a:Fiat on the road to recovery
29 January 2007
After years of losses and question marks over its future, Fiat seems to be leaving its financial troubles behind. In the past week, accountants PriceWaterhouseCoopers rated the Italian automotive giant tenth in a list of leading car manufacturers, and also rated its shares as providing the best returns over both one and three years.
This new-found confidence in Fiat should allow the company greater scope to develop new models. Though Fiat has been helped in its recovery by a payout from GM, following the dissolution of links between the two firms, much of its success has been attributed to chief executive Sergio Marchionne and overall boss Luca di Montezemolo.
Fiat's fortunes should also improve with the forthcoming launch of the new Cinquecento, due to be launched at the Frankfurt motor show in September. Before that, there's also a new Bravo on the way – come back to read our first impressions at the wheel on Wednesday 31 January.

When it comes to turnarounds, Fiat serves as a case study. The Italian institution that rules over Fiat, Lancia, Alfa Romeo, Ferrari, and Maserati, trucks, agricultural equipment, construction equipment, and automobile components, lost $1 billion in 2000. Contrast that with 2006, when it posted a 35% jump in revenues year-on-year, and its operating profit was $384 million -- a far cry from the $332 million loss of 2005. Fiat's current market cap is more than that of GM and Ford combined in Europe, at $32.5 billion.
Sergio Marchionne, CEO of the Fiat Group, is the man who led the charge, beginning in 2000 when he was hired from a Swiss firm. CNN has a lengthy profile on the Italian that delves into how he did it. The story will be familiar to all of us: "The car company had the talent, knowledge and skills, but it lacked leadership." It was "a problem of culture - big offices, big waste, and nobody responsible for anything." Too many vehicle discounts. Too many platforms. Too many people doing the same thing across brands. Cars not selling enough. Models not updated. To fix it, Marchionne, an outsider to the auto industry, sheared away excess layers of management, streamlined the design process, rationalized platforms, boosted production, didn't pick fights with the unions, forged partnerships in China, India, Russia, and Turkey, and got out of the partnership with GM (for which Fiat made $2 billion).
Most importantly, he picked the right people for the right jobs, and gave them the freedom to do whatever they felt they needed to -- as long as they produced. Then he focused on the Fiat brand, making sure that Fiat's models defined and conveyed what it is: a maker of affordable cars with Italian style. Finally, he also has kept his eye as much on the future as it is on the present: Fiat plans 23 new vehicles and as many facelifts by 2010, and triple the current level of net profit by 2010. "When you're fighting in an industry like this," Marchionne says, "you need to take very unorthodox approaches to the business." Good advice for all turnaround specialists.
