Fiat Chrysler Automobiles N.V. (FCA), now part of Stellantis, was an Italian-American multinational corporation primarily known as a manufacturer of automobiles, commercial vehicles, auto parts and production systems. At the time it was the world's eighth largest automobile maker.

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, known widely as FCA, was an Italian-American conglomerate. In layman's terms, that means it was multiple companies merged into one. FCA owned and produced popular Italian brands like Fiat, Alfa Romeo, and Maserati, alongside well-known American brands like Jeep, Chrysler, Dodge, and Ram.

In May 2014, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles was established by merging Fiat S.p.A. into the company. Chrysler Group LLC remained a subsidiary until December 15, 2014, when it was renamed FCA US LLC, to reflect the Fiat-Chrysler merger.

Fiat Automobiles is the largest automobile manufacturer in Italy. During its more than century-long history, it remained the largest automobile manufacturer in Europe and the third in the world after General Motors and Ford for over 20 years, until the car industry crisis in the late 1980s.

The auto company that some Americans may still refer to as Chrysler became part of a conglomerate called Stellantis NV (STLA), based in the Netherlands, on Jan. 16, 2021. Fiat Chrysler Automobiles ("FCA") officially merged with PSA Group, owner of the Peugeot automobile brand, at that time.

The Italian car brand and arguable style icon is suffering from extremely low sales in a market that has less and less interest in the tiny cars that has made it famous. In 2018, Fiat sold more than 15,000 cars in the U.S., down from a high in 2014 of over 46,000.

The merger will allow the two companies to reduce research and development costs, particularly as the companies move toward electrification.

The most important markets were Germany, Italy, France, the United Kingdom, and Spain. Meanwhile, the electric version of the Fiat 500 accounted for 38 percent of global sales in 2022.

The acronym F.I.A.T. stands for Fabbrica Italiana Automobili Torino, but the name FIAT means so much more. Founded in 1899, over the years the Turin-based company has become a symbol of Italy's technological and creative enterprise, which have changed the country and the history of global mobility forever.

When Fiat first teamed up with Chrysler several years ago, the Italian automaker decided to bring the tiny, iconic 500 minicar over to the states. Things grew from there as Fiat added a range of flavorful cars, crossovers, and sports cars.
