&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/fiat"&gt;Fiat&lt;/a&gt;
 has finally tipped its hand on the &lt;a href="http://www.atuoblog.com/tag/500L"&gt;500L&lt;/a&gt;

. After months of watching painful renderings of the five-door hatchback float to the surface, the company has dished a few official details ahead of the vehicle's debut at the &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/geneva motor show"&gt;2012 Geneva Motor Show&lt;/a&gt;
 in March.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

The 500L is 162.9 inches long, a smidge over 70 inches wide and 65.3 inches tall. Fiat says the four-door 500 combines an SUV driving experience with B-segment fuel efficiency and could easily serve as a first car for those who like the 500 but need a little more functionality. The Fiat 500L will begin production in Europe in the last quarter of this year. When it does, two gasoline engines and a turbo-diesel will find their way behind the headlights.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;


The Italian automaker isn't saying much about the company's plans for the 500L in the U.S., but we've previously heard American buyers will be able to sample the five-seater soon. Believe it or not, a seven-seat version is also planned for Europe. Follow the jump for the full press release and stay tuned for the unveil on March 6.&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2012/02/02/fiat-500l-previewed-ahead-of-geneva-motor-show/"&gt;Continue reading &lt;em&gt;Fiat 500L previewed ahead of Geneva Motor Show&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <link>http://www.topix.net/autos/2012/01/fiat-to-reveal-u-s-bound-four-door-500l-at-geneva?fromrss=1</link>

      <title>Fiat 126 with one liter Yamaha engine is a high revving monster [Video]</title>
      <link>http://www.topix.net/autos/2012/01/fiat-126-with-one-liter-yamaha-engine-is-a-high-revving-monster-video?fromrss=1</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;There is nothing monstrous about a stock Fiat 126. This 126 left the factory in 1989 with a tiny 24 horsepower engine and took a painful 33 seconds to go from 0-60. As you can see from the above video, this Fiat has been &amp;quot;slightly&amp;quot; modified from its stock form.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>Report: Fiat dishes up more information on 500L five-door</title>
      <link>http://www.autoblog.com/2012/01/29/fiat-dishes-up-more-information-on-500l-five-door/</link>

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/fiat"&gt;Fiat&lt;/a&gt;
 has served up a few more tidbits on the upcoming &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2012/01/17/five-door-fiat-500-headed-to-geneva/"&gt;500L five-door&lt;/a&gt;
 expected to debut at the &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/geneva motor show"&gt;Geneva Motor Show&lt;/a&gt;
 in March. According to &lt;em&gt;Automotive News&lt;/em&gt;
, the vehicle will feature a taller roof than the thee-door &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/fiat/500"&gt;Fiat 500&lt;/a&gt;

, and while the two sill share a front fascia, the larger vehicle will ride on a widened version of the same chassis that underpins the &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/fiat punto"&gt;Fiat Punto&lt;/a&gt;
. All told, the Fiat 500L will be around 163.38 inches long, which is around 2.36 inches longer than the current 500.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

Interestingly enough, Fiat plans to introduce both five-seat and a seven-seat version of the 500L in the near future, though American buyers are only likely to be able to enjoy the former configuration. The 500L is expected to touch down on dealer lots in Europe in July, while Americans will have to wait until early 2013 to plop themselves in the driver's seat.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;


In Europe, the vehicles will likely be available with with a turbocharged two-cylinder 900cc gasoline engine with 85 horsepower as well as a 1.4-liter four-cylinder good for either 77 or 105 hp depending on configuration. A 1.3-liter diesel will also be an option across the pond with either 75 or 99 hp. Odds are American buyers will simply see the 1.4-liter Multiair four-cylinder on their option sheets.&lt;p&gt;&lt;a

      <title>Video: Fiat co-opts Jeep tagline for new Panda campaign</title>

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

Recognize that tag line? It was used &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/06/10/video-first-2011-jeep-grand-cherokee-commercial-released/"&gt;in the first ad&lt;/a&gt;
 for the 2011 &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/jeep/grand+cherokee"&gt;Jeep Grand Cherokee&lt;/a&gt;
, a 90-second spot devoted to resetting our image of &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/jeep/"&gt;Jeep&lt;/a&gt;
 and, subtly, America itself. &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/chrysler"&gt;Chrysler&lt;/a&gt;
 parent &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/fiat/"&gt;Fiat&lt;/a&gt;

 evidently thinks so much of the tagline that they've taken it to Italy for use in the ad campaign for the &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/fiat+panda"&gt;2012 Fiat Panda&lt;/a&gt;
.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

Italy's had a tough time of late: just as it was trying to get Berlusconi and his &amp;quot;bunga bunga&amp;quot; in the rearview, its debt crisis went from 'critical' to 'euro-zone threatening,' austerity measures led to social and labor unrest, and now comes the capsized Costa Concordia and an Italian captain with the unique ability to trip and fall into a lifeboat before his passengers.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;


The Panda doesn't softly beat the drum of national spirit, it instead presents the Panda as just one symbol of what Italy can be if it is dedicated to working its way out of its funk. The Panda is so symbolic that, unlike in the &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/jeep"&gt;Jeep&lt;/a&gt;

 commercial, the narrator never mentions the car. It's airing on Italian television now, and you can see it after the jump.&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2012/01/24/fiat-co-opts-jeep-tagline-for-new-panda-campaign/"&gt;Continue reading &lt;em&gt;Fiat co-opts Jeep tagline for new Panda campaign&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/fiat/"&gt;Fiat USA&lt;/a&gt;
 put a &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2011/11/17/fiat-500-abarth-ditches-jlo-for-italian-sex-appeal/"&gt;video showcasing the 500 Abarth&lt;/a&gt;
 on the Internet last November that tested the bounds of what is doable on network TV. That's one of the big reasons it hasn't been put on TV yet.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

You'll see what we mean when you view the ad, titled &amp;quot;Seduction,&amp;quot; after the jump. It was the foam that made it iffy for the networks.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

But we chatted with &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/chrysler/"&gt;Chrysler&lt;/a&gt;
 marketing chief Olivier Francois at the &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/detroit-auto-show/"&gt;Detroit Auto Show&lt;/a&gt;
 about &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/super%20bowl/"&gt;Super Bowl commercials&lt;/a&gt;
 where advertisers are known to push the envelope. In the Chrysler-Fiat world of double titles, Francois is also CEO of Fiat.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

Francois, who is considering a few options for the big game, is wondering if the Abarth video is Super Bowl worthy, and wants to know what Autoblog readers think about the spot. Good enough for the big game, also known as the Super Bowl of advertising?&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;


Chrysler, of course, was the toast of the Super Bowl in 2011, showing an &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2011/02/10/why-chrysler-and-eminems-super-bowl-ad-almost-didnt-happen/"&gt;unprecedented two-minute ad&lt;/a&gt;
 featuring Eminem's &amp;quot;Lose Yourself,&amp;quot; an appearance by Eminem himself and the new ad theme, &amp;quot;Imported From Detroit.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

It's a high bar to reach again.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

What do you think? Does this Abarth ad have the right stuff?&lt;br /&gt;

      <title>Report: Five-door Fiat 500 headed to Geneva</title>

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

According to The&lt;em&gt; Detroit Free Press&lt;/em&gt;
, a plus-sized version of the cheeky little &lt;a href="http://autoblog.com/fiat/500"&gt;Fiat 500&lt;/a&gt;
 is heading to the &lt;a href="http://autoblog.com/category/geneva-motor-show"&gt;Geneva Motor Show&lt;/a&gt;
 in March. Olivier Francois, head of the Fiat brand, has reportedly confirmed that a five-door 500 will be shown in Geneva, and that the new vehicle will be sold here in the United States starting in 2013.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;


Sound familiar? About one year ago, we reported that Fiat was working on a four-door (or, five-door) 500 internally known as &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2011/02/14/report-fiat-readying-all-new-b-segment-four-door-for-u-s-by-20/"&gt;Project L-Zero&lt;/a&gt;

. This larger 500 was specifically being designed to round out the automaker's portfolio here in the U.S., though at the time, it was unclear whether or not the vehicle would be sold in other markets. Judging by the fact that the five-door 500 will debut in Switzerland, we can only assume that worldwide consumption is in the cards.&lt;p&gt;&lt;a

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

When &lt;a href="http://autoblog.com/fiat/"&gt;Fiat&lt;/a&gt;
 pronounced that it was planning to sell 50,000 &lt;a href="http://autoblog.com/fiat/500"&gt;Fiat 500&lt;/a&gt;
 models in 2011, we were more than a little skeptical. And now that 2011 is in the rear view mirror, it seems CEO Sergio Marchionne is ready to admit that the sales target was not very realistic.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

CNN Money reports that the charismatic Fiat/Chrysler boss is now calling the 50,000 number &amp;quot;incredibly naive,&amp;quot; adding that the goal was to best Mini Cooper's 2010 sales total of 45,644. Fiat only managed to sell 19,769 Cinquecento models for the year.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

Given that &lt;a href="http://autoblog.com/mini/"&gt;Mini&lt;/a&gt;
 has been in the U.S. for a decade and the marque already has an established dealer body and marketing presence - as well as an entire range of products - critics have said that clear that Fiat's 50,000-unit first-year goal was ambitious to a fault. Marchionne went on to add &amp;quot;we set ourselves up for a fall,&amp;quot; but the chief executive insists that the future of Fiat in the U.S. is still very strong.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;


Even though sales of the 500 came nowhere near 50,000 units, Marchionne says that the Mexico plant that builds the A-segment ride is still profitable. That's because the plant also builds models for South America and China. Marchionne is reportedly hoping to sell between 25,000 and 30,000 copies of the 500 in the U.S. in 2012. While the 500 will likely be the only Fiat-branded model available in U.S. showrooms in 2012, the lineup is at least set to expand with models like the &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2012/01/11/2012-fiat-500-abarth-priced-from-22-000/"&gt;$22,000&lt;/a&gt;

Will Jennifer Lopez hit the brakes on her Fiat endorsing?

Well, that's certainly the hope of one group, which would prefer that the American Idol judge stop representing a company...&lt;br /&gt;

      <title>Report: Fiat, Chrysler and who? Marchionne mulling third partner</title>

    href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/earnings-financials/"&gt;Earnings/Financials&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/fiat/"&gt;Fiat&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;a
    href="http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-01-09/marchionne-considering-fiat-chrysler-partner-to-lower-costs.html"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2012/01/sergio-marchionne.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/fiat"&gt;Fiat&lt;/a&gt;

/Chrysler sold about 4.2 million cars in 2010, and company CEO Sergio Marchionne expects to improve that by more than 33% come 2014, predicting sales of 5.7 units that year (analysts, on the other hand, predict average Fiat/&lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/chrysler"&gt;Chrysler&lt;/a&gt;
 sales of 4.9 million in 2014). Operating profit for 2011 has been pegged at around $600 million, a rewarding bump from the $200 to $500 million predicted earlier in the year and dwarfed by the predicted $3 billion operating profit for 2012.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

For Marchionne, though, those numbers need help from the outside: he says that an automaker needs to sell ten million units per year globally in order to reach &amp;quot;a new level of efficiency&amp;quot; and get development costs where he wants them. To wit, he is considering a partnership with a third car company to make that happen. He has repeatedly stated that he hasn't spoken with anyone yet, but Italian paper &lt;em&gt;Corriere della Serra&lt;/em&gt;
 has said that &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/peugeot"&gt;Peugeot&lt;/a&gt;
 is ready to talk, while other analysts have mentioned makers in emerging markets as potential partners.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

This is hardly the first time Marchionne has mentioned his quest for &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/volkswagen"&gt;Volkswagen&lt;/a&gt;

-like scale - in fact, he's been quite consistent on his desire to rationalize costs throughout the carmaking process. Based on that, it's inevitable that he'll tie up, the only questions now are who and when. He could wait until Fiat &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2012/01/05/fiat-increases-chrysler-stake-to-58-5/"&gt;digests the remaining 41.5 percent&lt;/a&gt;

 of Chrysler it doesn't own and &amp;quot;merges&amp;quot; with The Pentastar, or if the right partner raises a hand, it might be sooner. Whoever it is, if it results in more novelties like the &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2012/01/09/2013-dodge-dart-is-half-a-chrysler-half-a-romeo-for-15-995/"&gt;Dodge Dart&lt;/a&gt;
, we tentatively say we're all for it.&lt;p&gt;&lt;a

      <title>Official: 2012 Fiat 500 Abarth priced from $22,000*</title>

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/fiat"&gt;Fiat&lt;/a&gt;
 has announced that the &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2011/11/17/2012-fiat-500-abarth-brings-the-scorpions-sting-to-north-americ/"&gt;2012 500 Abarth&lt;/a&gt;

 will be priced from $22,000, *not including destination charges. That's a healthy jump from the tiny Italian's $15,500 base MSRP and higher still than the open-air &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/fiat/500c/"&gt;500C&lt;/a&gt;
 that starts at $19,500. For all that extra lira, buyers get Fiat's turbocharged 1.4-liter MultiAir engine producing 160 horsepower and 170 pound-feet of torque. Power is routed through a five-speed manual transmission and the super Cinquecento also receives an upgraded suspension and brakes, 16-inch wheels and dual exhaust system. The cost of admission also includes free tuition to the Abarth Driving Experience hosted by The Richard Petty Driving Experience.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;


The Fiat 500 Abarth can be difficult to place among its class competitors because it's the smallest kid on the block, but we've constructed a handy-dandy table to compare pricing, power and weight-to-power ratios for some likely adversaries. Despite being the smallest in size, the Abarth 500 actually ends up with the highest weight-to-power ratio. The upcoming &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2012/01/09/2013-hyundai-veloster-turbo-detroit-2012/"&gt;Hyundai Veloster Turbo&lt;/a&gt;
 stands out as having the least amount for each horse to lug around, though without pricing information, the Abarth 500 presently stands as the least expensive in-road to the kingdom of hot hatches.&lt;br /&gt;

      <title>Fiat boss says no merger with Chrysler before 2015</title>
      <link>http://www.france24.com/en/20120108-fiat-boss-says-no-merger-with-chrysler-before-2015</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Fiat and Chrysler Group head Sergio Marchionne said in an interview published Sunday that he would need at least until &amp;quot;after 2015&amp;quot; to fully merge the two automakers and leave his post.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When asked how long he would stay in his job, Marchionne told the Detroit Free Press, said: &amp;quot;Nothing is going to happen until after 2015 -- unless I get hit by a bus.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The newspaper, which did not name its sources, said the merger of the Italian auto giant and the third-largest US carmaker could be complete as soon as 2013.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>Official: Fiat increases Chrysler stake to 58.5%</title>

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

How important is the forthcoming &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/2013%20Dodge%20Dart/"&gt;2013 Dodge Dart &lt;/a&gt;
to the future of &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/chrysler/"&gt;Chrysler&lt;/a&gt;
? Well, it allowed &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/fiat/"&gt;Fiat&lt;/a&gt;
 to boost its stake in Chrysler for the fifth time in the past year today, adding five percent to bring Fiat's total ownership to 58.5 percent.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

That's because the new &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/dodge/"&gt;Dodge&lt;/a&gt;
 sedan &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2012/01/05/why-the-2013-dodge-dart-wont-really-get-40-mpg-combined/"&gt;scored a combined 40 miles per gallon&lt;/a&gt;

 in CAFE fuel economy testing, triggering the increase in ownership under the operating agreement reached following the Chrysler bankruptcy proceedings. (Note that the 40 mpg number is unadjusted, meaning that the actual EPA combined fuel economy, the one published on the window sticker, will be lower.) Chrysler sent the United States Treasury a letter stating that it was &amp;quot;irrevocably committed to begin assembly&amp;quot; of the Dart at its &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/belvidere/"&gt;Belvidere plant in Illinois&lt;/a&gt;
. Chrysler will take the wraps off the Dart on January 9 at the &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/detroit-auto-show/"&gt;Detroit Auto Show&lt;/a&gt;
.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;


Fiat's stake in Chrysler has grown considerably since it received its initial 20-percent share in &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/01/20/breaking-chrysler-and-fiat-announce-partnership/"&gt;the immediate aftermath of the automaker's bankruptcy&lt;/a&gt;

. The Italian automaker has now met all the &amp;quot;performance events&amp;quot; of its agreement with the Treasury, and could buy out the &lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/uaw/"&gt;United Auto Workers&lt;/a&gt;
 healthcare trust that owns the remaining 41.5 percent of the company, according to a report in &lt;em&gt;Automotive News&lt;/em&gt;
. However, that report indicates that Fiat's financial situation may not be solid enough to do so - at least not right away. &lt;br /&gt;

      <description>&lt;p&gt;Italian auto giant Fiat said Thursday it has boosted its stake in Chrysler by five percent to 58.5 percent, after the US carmaker received approval for a fuel-efficient car to be made in the United States.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;The acquisition of a further five percent of Chrysler is a fundamental step in completion of the integration between our two groups,&amp;quot; Fiat and Chrysler Group head Sergio Marchionne said in a press release.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>Fiat's First Year Back In The U.S. Marred By Missteps</title>
      <link>http://www.npr.org/2012/01/04/144335485/fiats-first-year-back-in-the-u-s-marred-by-missteps?ft=1&amp;f=1006</link>
      <description>In 2011, the Italian automaker introduced its first car for the U.S. market in 27 years, the Fiat 500. It opened new dealerships to sell only that model, but dealers had to manage without national advertising for months. And when an ad featuring Jennifer Lopez did finally come out, it was panned.</description>
