    More red at Benz than at FCA. 

    They were up 0.4%.  At least they aren't down 34% like Alfa Romeo, or down 26% like Chrysler or down 7% like Jeep in an SUV market and Jeep is down 7% for the year as the SUV market is just getting flooded with entries.

    FCA was up for the month while Benz was down. FCA is also only down 3% for the year while Mercedes is down 8%. Not sure how you paint that as a rosy picture. 

     

    I do agree about Alfa though. It is just a joke in automotive clown shoes at this point and perfectly illustrates the money spent on it by FCA was money wasted.

    Neither FIAT nor Alfa Romeo should be sold here.  They belong in Europe since neither can compete here.  Maybe if that Renault merger with FCA goes through, someone will have the wisdom to discontinue FIAT and Alfa Romeo in North America.

    I agree 100%. Both were garbage forty years ago and they clearly have not improved upon that reputation.

    Funny anecdote, for some reason I've seen a 1/2 dozen Alfa Romeos (4 Giulias and 2 Stelvios) in the last week.  The Giulia Quadrafiglio does look great in dark blue.

    Single market brands have a hard time.  That is a problem FCA has.  Alfa and Fiat are stronger in the USA than Chrysler and Dodge are outside of North America.  When you have regional brands, it is hard to stay competitive.  Same problem with Renault, another regional company, if they merge all this together, they need to get a "One Ford" type plan where they have 1 car sold all over the world, maybe under different brand names.
