It would seem that
Fiat head Sergio Marchionne is nothing if not ambitious. Following the seven-hour-long marathon presentation of
Chrysler's latest business plan back in November of 2009, the giant Italian automaking alliance has just released its own five-year business plan, which includes Fiat,
Maserati and
Ferrari in addition to announcing the long-awaited
return of the Alfa Romeo brand to the United States as a full-range automaker.
We'll start with Ferrari... for obvious reasons. Kicking off a
series of six new models will be a replacement for the four-seat
612 Scaglietti, which is destined to add a hybrid powertrain to its impressive V12 engine. Next up is a convertible version of the new
458 Italia sometime next year, and later another 458-based model that will be much more track focused, like the
430 Scuderia.
Staying with the Prancing Horse lineup, we should see a new range-topping Ferrari to take the mantle from the discontinued
Enzo hypercar, very likely to see an engine utilizing forced induction along with a lightweight platform. The
599 GTB will get a replacement as well, and the recently released
California will see itself updated and granted an M designation.
