Fiat

Carmaker Stellantis has said it would halt production of the electric version of its emblematic Fiat 500 in Italy due to weak demand, a move that comes as EV sales have slowed in Europe.

Growth in electric vehicles has stalled in many European countries, in part due to expiration of government incentives.

KRAGUJEVAC - At a ceremony that marked the start of trial production of Fiat's new electric car, the Grande Panda, at the Stellantis plant in Kragujevac, central Serbia, Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said Monday was a great day for Serbia as the modernised plant symbolised a joint success of Serbia and Stellantis and a fight for accelerated progress.

The smart agriculture "radar" of Volos-based Greek startup Augmenta is expected to travel around the world, following its acquisition by New York-listed CNH Industrial, the second largest tractor manufacturer in the world with a capitalization of around $20 billion.

Stellantis plans to discontinue the Ram ProMaster City, the smaller of the truck brand's two van offerings, after the 2022 model year as the segment dwindles rapidly in the U.S. and automakers focus on adding larger electric vans instead, Automotive News has reported.

The ProMaster City is built in Türkiye by carmaker Tofaş at its plant in the northwestern province of Bursa.

Fiat sold a total of 62,154 vehicles in the first six months of 2022, dominating the local market in terms of sales.

The carmaker sold more than 41,000 passenger cars and around 21,000 light commercial vehicles in January-June, according to data from the Automotive Distributors' Association (ODD).

As B92.net has learned, the workers rejected the Prime Minister's proposal to come to the Serbian Government for talks today at 4.30 p.m.
First, they asked for a severance pay of 1.000 euros per year, and today they are asking for 2.000 per year, which is 10 times more than other workers in Serbia receive.

Stellantis Group, a major shareholder in Turkish carmaker Tofaş, has announced that the new Fiat Doblo will be produced in Spain.
