Passenger car sales in the United States are up just 1% as the overall industry has grown more than 5% through the first eleven months of 2014.

Fiat Tries Cheap Gas To Power Sales
Italy has some of Europe’s highest gasoline prices, with the liter going for approximately €1.83. This translates, hold on to your wallet, to $8.54 for the gallon. Italy is also the country of steep sales drops. The Italian new car market contracted by 18 percent last April. Fiat is Italy’s biggest carmaker and sustains even bigger losses.
