Marchionne Says Mileage Targets Are Within Reach
Keywords:
Fiat-Chrysler's Sergio Marchionne tells an automotive conference that the new fuel efficiency targets proposed by the Obama administration will be "an incredible stimulus for the American auto industry." He is confident that the new 2025 standards can be achieved. He said the industry had a bad habit of crying wolf and emphasized the need to get there so that the U.S. auto industry could be at the forefront of the changes taking place. He also cautioned the industry to not get comfortable with China's role as an emerging market that helped increase global sales. That growth is slowing and it presents another potential risk for the automakers- the potential for China to export 10% of what it makes to overseas markets including the U.S. and Europe. All of which increases the urgency of building the industrial base and competitiveness of the automotive industry in the U.S.

The new Chrysler that is emerging from bankruptcy with government help under Fiat's Marchionne.
11/10/2006
Marchionne has kept many of the managers from the previous Chrysler. Jim Press is deputy CEO and adviser. He came from Toyota. Everything else will change. He is flattening the organization structure to improve communication and speed. Smaller car lineup will replace the prior lineup, and Fiat's engine technology will provide help for fuel efficient cars.

Was America asleep at the spigot? Did Detroit carmakers completely miss on competitive strategy?
02/28/2006
Issues raised by the graph on fuel efficiency over the post war period for the European, Japanese and the American carmakers show a huge striking gap. Not closing this gap was going to hurt Detroit carmakers. It also points to a complete lack of energy policy through higher standards, gasoline tax, and other policy actions by the government. Schwartz of NYT shows the gap and consequences.

High oil prices in 2008 and again in 2011. The danger this poses for the Detroit automakers as they continue to depend on SUV's and larger vehicles for revenues and profits. Even with the big strides in making small cars, a Chevy Cruze or a Ford Fiesta is still not as popular as a Honda Civic or a Toyota Prius, says one analyst.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
