unique and rich with potential at the technical, professional and human level – 300,000 people around the world driven by the spirit and values of an

organization intent on distinguishing itself not only in terms of the excellence of its products, but also for the commitment, integrity and transparency with which it conducts its activities. The coming together of Fiat and Chrysler has

enabled us to intensify our sustainability-related activities by sharing best practices and leveraging our respective strengths.”

We are in a race against time. Climate change

and the increasing scarcity of traditional sources

of energy require new approaches to mobility.

Fiat Group is addressing this challenge head-on

by ensuring individual freedom of movement with

maximum consideration for the environment

and local communities. Our system of corporate

governance is continuously evolving to incorporate

values, rules and procedures that reflect

international best practices. We strive to ensure

our production processes achieve increasingly

higher standards in environmental performance

and efficiency, supported by the implementation

of World Class Manufacturing (WCM), a best-in-

class system of manufacturing that encompasses

all plant processes. Our research activities are

focused on the development of fuel efficient,

low-emission products that contribute to the

achievement of sustainable, efficient and

accessible mobility.

leadership was reconfirmed, with a natural gas

market share of more than 67%, corresponding to

more than 62,000 natural gas vehicles registered

(+15% compared with 2012), for almost 600,000

cars and commercial vehicles sold since 1997.

A fundamental aspect of Fiat Group’s vehicle

emission reduction strategy centers on the use of

alternative fuels. From natural gas to biofuels, the

objective is to offer technologies that are aligned

with the fuels available in the various markets, and

For Fiat Group, sustainable mobility extends to

protecting drivers, passengers and other road users.

We are constantly in search of solutions to enhance

active and passive vehicle safety. But safety doesn’t

stop there. The Group also encourages responsible

driving behavior through the use of various in-

vehicle information systems and campaigns to

promote proper vehicle maintenance. To design and

deliver well-crafted vehicles, we monitor six different

types of vehicle quality. Our global quality process

incorporates not only customer feedback but also

benchmark performance comparisons to ensure we

understand both our customers’ requirements and

the competitive market.
