Fiat (FIAT, NYSE: FIA, known as Feiyate in Taiwan, Kuaiyi in Hong Kong and Macau, and Feixia in Malaysia and Singapore) is a renowned Italian automobile manufacturer established in 1899, headquartered in Turin, the northern capital of Italy. Notable brands under Fiat include: Fiat, Lancia, Alfa Romeo, and Maserati. Below is relevant information about Fiat: 1. As one of the world's top ten automobile companies, Fiat Automobiles was founded in July 1899 in Turin, Italy, by Giovanni Agnelli. It was the world's first automobile manufacturer to produce microcars. The company's full name is Fabbrica Italiana Automobili Torino, and FIAT is the phonetic translation of its abbreviation, which also serves as the trademark for its products. 2. To standardize the font on the car hood, Fiat's hood emblem adopts a rectangular trademark.
I'm particularly fascinated by automotive history and know that the Italian brand Fiat is now under Stellantis, a mega automotive group formed in 2021 through the merger of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and PSA Group. It owns many renowned brands like Peugeot, Citroën, Jeep, and Alfa Romeo. Founded in 1899, Fiat has a long history of producing classic models such as the Fiat 500, which my friend once drove – its retro, compact design makes it very easy to handle. Post-merger, Stellantis became the world's fourth-largest automaker, headquartered in the Netherlands, allowing Fiat to share technology and resources to reduce costs, which is quite advantageous in the electric vehicle trend. Although Fiat's independent era has passed, the brand retains its European identity within the new group and continues to sell new models like the Panda series. I think this integration makes cars more reliable and maintenance more convenient.
