Fiat SpA’s new Compact vehicle architecture, which will debut on the new Alfa Romeo Giulietta hatchback, is scheduled to underpin 700,000 Chrysler group vehicles a year in the United States and 300,000 in Europe by 2014. Fiat and Chrysler are currently working on a widened version of the architecture, known as Compact Wide, which will underpin at least seven new models for the Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep brands.<\/p>\n

According to Automotive News<\/em>, the first Chrysler Group vehicles to get the Compact Wide architecture will replace the PT Cruiser and the Dodge Caliber in 2012.<\/p>\n

“In developing the Compact architecture, we looked for best-in-class performances in terms of handling and steering response, weight-to-power ratio; noise, vibration and harshness, active and passive safety,” said\u00a0Stefano Re Fiorentin, Fiat’s head of advanced engineering.<\/p>\n

Sergio Marchionne plans for the combined Compact\/Compact Wide architecture volume to exceed 1 million units annually within four years.<\/p>\n
