Alfa Romeo is about to return to the United States, as stressed many times by Sergio Marchionne, Fiat Group CEO.
Marchionne also declared that Fiat Group will build a brand new plant in the US that will assemble only Alfa Romeo cars.
Mentioning the strength of the euro on the US dollar as the main reason for such a decision, the Marchionne stated that manufacturing cars in North America is vital to the Alfa Romeo brand.
Marchionne also added that Alfa will start to make profits on the US market only three or four years after the brand’s debut.
A curiosity: this won’t be the first Fiat plant in the United States as the italian brand built a factory in Poughkeepsie (NY) back in 1909.
Meanwhile, Alfa’s most important factory in Pomigliano D’Arco will stay closed for two months (January 7th- March 2nd 2008) for an “update”.
