These days, Abarth is probably best known in the U.S. for its performance tuned Fiat 500s. This year, the brand will be bringing four specially-tuned units to the 2013 Geneva Motor Show.

A Chrysler Group executive has said that Fiat dealerships meeting sales and customer service goals will be the first to get the Alfa Romeo 4C when it goes on sale in America.

Chrysler believes that Alfa Romeo, once brought back to the U.S., will eventually outsell the Fiat brand in America.

The upcoming Maserati Levante SUV will not be produced in Detroit as previously announced. Instead one of Fiat’s plants in Turin, Italy will be making the new luxury SUV. 

Fiat is looking into building a low-cost brand that would rival Nissan-Renault’s Dacia, according to CEO Sergio Marchionne. 

Chrysler’s exclusive attitude about which dealers will be allowed to sell the SRT Viper doesn’t seem to have thinned the lineup for certification much. In fact, the roster is almost full.

There will be at least 10 nameplates available in North America between the Fiat and Alfa Romeo brands for North American buyers by 2016.

Arguably electric cars are the future of the automotive industry. They promise smooth, quiet, pollution-free driving, but are they ready for primetime? If recent news is any indicator, the answer is a resounding “NO!”

As automotive partnerships go, a new relationship budding between Mazda and Fiat promises only exciting things, as both companies announced today that a deal has been finalized to produce a new Alfa-Romeo roadster based on the next generation Mazda MX-5.

Fiat has unveiled two design studies that will make their official debut at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show tomorrow.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has rated the 2013 Fiat 500e at 122 MPGe in the city and 108 MPGe on the highway, giving the electric Fiat a combined rating of 116 MPGe.

Jeep plans to increase its stable of models from four to at least six by 2016, with three of those future Jeep models built on platforms from Fiat.

Jeep just might be the thing to tug Fiat out of its European money mire like a winch-wearing Wrangler pulling a stranger’s truck from a mud bog. 

To celebrate the lives of the mothers who will drive them, Fiat has just released a music video entitled “The Motherhood’ feat. Fiat 500L,” which the brand says is “dedicated to all those women who have to be all things to all people and live it large on a daily basis.”

Interested in a Fiat or Chrysler and currently driving around in a Volkswagen? The automaker is now offering a $1,000 rebate to current VW owners in America if they wish to buy a Fiat or Chrysler vehicle.

The freshly announced Fiat 500 Abarth Cabrio already has a cheeky commercial, focusing on the topless theme of the car by showing off a certain super model, completely topless. 

Fiat debuted its 500e electric car today during the L.A. Auto Show to join the list of brands offering gas-free transportation.

Aiming to broaden appeal for the performance-oriented version of its city car, the Fiat 500 Abarth Cabrio made its U.S. debut on the L.A. show floor today.

Ahead of their 2012 LA Auto Show debut, Fiat has unveiled its 500L Trekking model and showed off its North American 500L model.

If the Fiat 500 Abarth has one signature feature, it’s the tiny car’s rather un-tiny exhaust note. And now with the new 500C Abarth model you’ll be able to hear that droning buzz a few decibels louder courtesy of a folding soft-top.

One of Italian automaker Fiat’s latest editions takes the brand in a very Californian direction, picking perhaps the most appropriate venue to debut: the 2012 L.A. Auto Show.

The Fiat 500e, which is making its debut at the 2012 LA Auto Show this week, will not be heading to Europe according to the automaker’s global brand head.

Fiat will be introducing a 500L Trekking model at the 2012 Los Angeles Auto Show, adding a soft-roader variant to its model lineup.

Fiat has produced its one millionth 500 model after five years of being on the market, symbolizing the compact car’s continued growth in over 100 countries around the world.

As expected, the Fiat 500 Abarth Cabriolet will be making its North American debut at the upcoming 2012 Los Angeles Auto Show.

Before its official unveiling at the L.A. Auto Show, Fiat has dropped photos of the upcoming 500e, its new small electric city car. 

Speaking at a media event in Detroit today Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne confirmed suspicions that there will be more versions of the company’s award-winning Pentastar V6.

Chrysler made a series of big announcements today at its Mack I Engine Plant in Detroit. 

Fiat– Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne made a series of significant announcements in a teleconference earlier today, not the least of which is the termination of the Lancia brand.

Mopar and Fiat came out swinging at the 2012 SEMA Show, bringing a trio of modified Fiat 500 models to show off the versatility of the Italian automaker’s compact model.

As expected, Fiat unveiled several modified 500 models at the 2012 SEMA Show: The Fiat 500 Beach Cruiser, Fiat Abarth Cafe Racer, and a modified Fiat Argento from Magneti Marelli.

The numbers have been tallied and the data compiled in Consumer Reports’ latest Auto Reliability Survey. Toyota has a lot to be happy about but Ford has taken a tumble.

Alongside the California ready 500 Beach Cruiser, Fiat will be bringing a hot-rod style 500 to the 2012 SEMA show, dubbed the Fiat 500 Cafe Racer.

At this year’s LA Auto Show, Fiat will reveal two new models, the 500 Abarth Cabriolet and 500E electric car.

We now have a better look at the widebody Fiat 500 that was originally teased by Mopar at the end of last month. Sporting a beach cruiser theme, the Fiat 500 is decked out with surf-friendly modifications in a retro-style build that will be shown off at this year’s SEMA Show.

Nicknamed the 500C, the cloth top Fiat 500 is a playful solution to rising gas prices and cluttered urban spaces. But for this stylish mini-car, are the good looks to good to be true?

No-holds-barred technology sharing between Mazda and Fiat might be on the table.

“Do you come with the car?” Sadly, no, but you can now get an Abarth with more accessories than ever before.

Chrysler has kicked off the month of inevitable teasers of customized cars heading to SEMA today,  with some Moparized vehicles from Fiat, Jeep, Dodge, RAM, and SRT.

Last year, Chrysler confirmed that a Fiat Doblo-based RAM commercial van would be on its way to America, and according to recent trademark filings it appears that it will be called the RAM Promaster City.

At this year’s Paris Motor Show, Abarth will introduce its new personalization service, showcasing the possibilities on an Abarth 695 model.

The Fiat 500 model can finally claim that it gets an EPA estimated 40-mpg on the highway, thanks to its 2013 model year tweaks.

If the Alfa Romeo and Mazda collaboration has even half the success of Toyota and Subaru‘s collaboration on the FR-S/BRZ, it would be no surprise that more than one sports car will come as a result.

Heading into this weekend’s Pirelli World Challenge season finale in Sonoma, California, Jonathan Start and the Fiat 500 team looked poised to claim the inaugural B-Spec Championship. A win would also mark the first-ever series championship in North America for the Italian automaker.

It didn’t used to be free, but now it is thanks to Fiat – an English/Italian translator app distributed through the iOS App Store.

Last month, Jay Leno announced that he’d be auctioning off his personal Fiat 500 Prima Edizione with all the proceeds going to benefit the Fisher House Foundation.

To slot in between the regular  Fiat 500 and the tuned up Abarth model, Fiat has just unveiled the 500 Turbo, starting at a base MSRP of $19,500.

New additions to the Fiat 500 lineup have already been added in the form of a small crossover and mini-van, and now looks like there might be an even larger 500 with third-row seats.

Fiat is taking the 500 back to its roots, announcing a new trim level called ‘color therapy,’ which incorporates five new paint colors meant to give the car some retro style. 

The Fiat 500 EV will begin production later this year and go on sale in 2013 as Chrysler relaxes its opposition to electric vehicles.

This isn’t the first time we’ve heard of G-Tech, which released a custom Abarth 500 tuning package a couple of years ago. The company has continued tuning the Italian compact Fiat 500 model, and its Sportster is the coolest one yet.

To promote its newest blog site, Fiat is offering its fans a trip for two to Italy, where its recent “Immigrants” commercial was filmed.

One weekend every year, Fiat enthusiasts from all across the nation gather together for the Fiat Freakout. This year’s event took place at Virginia’s Blue Ridge Mountains and was packed with Italian car lovers from all over North America.

Abarth will be adding two new models to its lineup in the UK market, with the 595 Turismo and 595 Competizione heading to dealerships sporting a turbocharged 1.4-liter, T-Jet powerplant with 160-hp.

It takes a lot for Jay Leno to let go of one of the cars from his extensive collection; but the Tonight Show host is doing just that, auctioning off his 2012 Fiat 500 Prima Edizione with all proceeds going to benefit the Fisher House Foundation.

Fiat’s latest commercial, “Immigrants,” gives a cinematic portrayal of the 500 making its journey from Italy to the U.S., but as anyone who watched it will know, several cars were apparently sacrificed in the process.

Fiat has unveiled a new commercial today, called “immigrants”, showing off the Fiat 500 and its birth in America. It also looks like the company let a snapshot slip of the new Fiat 500T. 

The Fiat 500L is the big brother of the Fiat 500, and along with the added size, comes some added convenience, in the form of an incorporated espresso maker right in the car. 

We might have some fancy cars over here in the USA, but there are quite a few vehicles overseas that we can’t help but think are desperately missing from our shores. More than a few are niche market models perfect for auto-enthusiasts, while others are more stylish or practical than what’s currently available in the US. And some are both.

With f irst photos of the 500X having been teased, Fiat has now confirmed the sub-compact crossover will be sold in North America.
