Fiat and the Chrysler Group will be producing Jeep and Alfa Romeo models in Fiat’s Turin factory as part of a joint venture aiming to respond to the global market of the brands. The partnership will be injecting around $1.3 billion to properly equip the facilities.
The factory will be busy with the production of the Giulia sedan and its station wagon version which will take the place of the 159 range of Alfa Romeo. It will also produce the medium SUVs under the badge of Jeep and Alfa. The SUV of the Alfa Romeo is aiming to compet with the GLK of the Mercedes-Benz, BMW X3, and the Audi Q5. The model under the Jeep brand will be stepping in for the Compass/Patriot.
The volume of vehicle production is expected to roll out towards the end of 2012 according to Fiat. Fifty per cent of the vehicles will roll out to European dealerships while the other half will be heading off to North America. The Alfa Romeos will play a vital role in the relaunch of the brand in North America.
The Turin factory used to have an output of 178,500 according to 2009 reports but this will be boosted up to around 250K to 280K units annually. The vehicles that will go on production are also expected to be patterned after the Compact Wide architecture of Fiat which is all about comfort, safety, and performance.
Fiat insiders also shared that the Italian carmaker is aiming to raise its holding with Chrysler which is currently at 20% Fiat is going for 25% during the first three months of next year and for 35% before the end of 2011.

When you think about it – GM has had quite a year. I mean with all of their progress and they are going to be paying back their debts and now – they have announced that two weeks from now, they are going to start running their Fairfax assembly plant continuously and on a permanent basis.
Do you know what that means? Well, that means that there are going to be a heck of a lot more jobs and the production is going to be fantastic. The reason for it is so that production does go up from 4,500 units up to 6,300 units over the same time period.
Although running a plant like this 24 hours is going to be hard, it is definitely going to be worth it in the long run.

Oh, the Mansory Cypress – the beautiful, beautiful Mansory Cypress. This is a car that is not only beautiful on the outside but on the inside as well and I can tell you for sure that the Mansory Cypress is one of the most highly anticipated cars in the world right now.
However – the pictures are limited! That is … until autoblog.com researched and found the release of many pictures of the Mansory Cypress on the road. To me, this is a car that is not only awesome looking on the road but a car that I honestly can not wait to drive personally.
You want carbon? This all carbon fiber car is certainly the best looking and when it was at the Frankfurt show – it gleamed and beamed!

Well people – while we are not exactly in the know about the 2011 Ford Mustang right at the moment, I can tell you that shortly – we will have some more information about car.
Already – the Ford Motor Company’s secrets are being leaked out … like the fact that you will be able to order this particular Mustang by January 18th, 2010.
The great thing about the 2011 is that this is going to be bigger, better and badder … all of the features that most cars try to have but can not compare to the Ford Mustang. While we know that the LA Auto Show is going to be the only place that the 2011 Mustang will be revealed … I’ll keep you posted!

I have been keeping up with the vehicles that are selling this year for quite a while now and I have been waiting for the 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid to top the charts on the top ten at least and finally … it has. While the Dearborn based auto-maker has seen it’s market share drop down quite a bit, I have to say that the 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid is definitely the car that they are selling the most of right now.
With good reason! The 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid is actually a car that is not only cute for the girly-girls, but it is also a car that most people have been looking forward to purchasing, which is rare in this market. Personally, I have been waiting for the 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid to come out because of its reputation as well as its chic and sleek look.
If you want to know more about the 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid – really take a look at autoblog.com, because they are packed with information!

Are you one of those people that have been dying to buy the Honda CR-Z? Well – you might want to hold off on that because Mugen is actually toying with the idea of actually creating a high performance vehicle that is going to be based off of the up and coming Honda CR-Z.
Now, if you know Honda, you know that they are a fantastic automaker and their cars are known for the body work as well as the engine best. If actually designed the Honda CR-Z and they believe in it – I think that we should just go with the Honda CR-Z, don’t you?
However – Mugen is actually thinking about tuning up the Honda CR-Z and making it that much better. It’s up to you though!
