Chrysler makes profits but Fiat losses
-Fiat-Chrysler Group has presented its quarterly results this week: with the Chrysler Group, which it acquired nearly 60% since 2009, the Italian manufacturer has almost doubled its profit to 362 million euros in the third quarter of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. But without the U.S. group, it posted a loss of 230 million euros.
-If Chrysler is in good shape, Fiat is pretty bad. Its turnover in nine months fell by 6%, while Chrysler has progressed well. The results remind the situation of General Motors and Ford that record profits in North America, but losses in Europe.
