What a remarkable individual he was. His achievements were astounding. Best of all, no suits and no clean cut image. Grit and sheer single minded determination. Tens of thousands of jobs saved, two famous brands survive.

Well said.

Rest in peace, Mr. Marchionne. Through hard work, extraordinary passion and sacrifice you made yourself into an industrial giant on two continents.

R.I.P. What a great man. I may not be a Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep fan, but I damn do respect them.

I worked for Chrysler from 1985-2010 when I had to retire due tio a disability.I retired from Belvidere,Illinois after transferring there from our plant closing in Newark,Delaware.I will say that we should have sold it to Lee Iacocca instead of Daimler,all they did was run Chrysler into the ground.Glad Fiat took over,now we are on the fast track to become one of the worlds best automobile production companies in the world.Thank you Fiat.

One of the most best story ever. Please contact me in private to tell me some story about

*Respect for the late Sergio M. A very smart guy and perhaps the only global auto top executive who has studied Philosophy: Hegel and Wittengenstein. He will be missed. Bangkok-Johnny CarSanook Media THAILAND*

Rest In Peace Sergio, Sergio’s leadership and passion shall not be forgotten. Italy is mourning the loss of their greatest ambassador of Italian workmanship, style and ingenuity. Sergio single-handedly saved the auto industry in Italy which by itself was a Herculean task but he was able to replicate the industrial miracle in America by saving Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep. Sergio will always be remembered with immense affection and gratitude by the thousands of workers and their families through out the world who have partnered with him in achieving stability and success.🙏

Way to Go Sergio & Factory Team ! I purchased a 2015 Chrysler 200c and I absolutely LUV IT !!

No more Chrysler automobiles!

Rest in peace, Sergio. Thank you for everything you have done for the automotive sector.

Much respect for Signore Marchionne, he saved not only Fiat but also Chrysler (and subsidiaries). We need more men like him in the auto industry to revive dying brands.

Thank you, Sergio, for saving Jeep, my favorite car company. You will forever be missed.

Rest in piece Sergio. Thank you for bringing this company back.

He combined a grant vision and ability. Imposible but possible.He done miracle.My great Idol my Hero.

I've watched this quite a few times and I often wonder if he already knew then that both the Dart and the 200 were both going to be sales disasters. Rest in peace, Mr. Marchionne.

In 2010, when development started, people were still recovering from the recession. So economical compact cars were an important segment. Unfortunately by the time the Dart hit the showroom floors the 2nd SUV craze began as the economy recovered some.

Sergio, a true genius!

Sergio is my great Idol.Leadership is simply the best.

Wow, amazing executive. He must have been the busiest person in the world. CEO of Chrysler, Fiat, Ferrari, and Maserati at the same time!

That Alfa sounds nice,,,

An Incredible Man ,May He Rest In Peace

I've watched it a number of times now, and I'm pretty sure it's one of the Lancia-based concepts that will eventually be the new 200. I could be wrong, of course.

Sergio 🇮🇹❤👍

Am happy for Chrysler, for Detroit and, most importantly, for America!!!

I saw a Ducato again and a few Panda's and a Stilo, kind regards.

the dart is not half bad I own one great car got a Durango to go with it too great cars great engines and efficiency sad to see the dart get killed off but sooner or later we will see a replacement emerge the 300 charger and challenger will be replaced by something else and I see it happening at the end of the decade times are changing

And yet 8 years later there are only 3 cars that Chrysler still builds and are in a major need of updating: The 300, Charger and Challenger. All relics from the Daimler era. I want to root for Chrysler but I keep reading about how unreliable their products are, unless you are a Ram Pickup. That's where all the love seems to go.

Mike K exactly! Even scotty kilmer says quality went down even more after the merger. I must say, the 1996 caravan was the best looking car they had

RIP Sergio!

RIP Chrysler. A real leader gone good luck.

He saved my job... No doubt

Were things really that bad in the beginning? If so then he was a genius.

they own Viper so they should be good.

only watching this because of Di

Drew Mallicoat Actually the market shrank as people are moving more to Crossovers and SUV's in addition FCA wanted to start updating all of its plants without stopping as much production as possible. They started shuffling product and updating plants, the plant that made Dart and Chrysler 200 has been updated again and will be producing the next generation Ram 1500 which it is already producing testing mule trucks and it will also produce FCA's line of body on frame large SUVs starting with the Jeep Wagoneer.

The shift to SUVs in the 1990s was a major problem for Ford after the wild success of the original Ford Explorer. Just like in investments, diversification is key to weather trends and ultimate success. Focusing on fads benefits only in the short term.

RIP

Sergio had no skin in the game. His only interest was the dealer/parts network to be used by Fiat. Those who had legitimate offers where told to kiss off. Those who held bonds where told to drop dead. Sergio's only interest was to bring Fiat back to the US market because of the low price foriegn labor used to build Fiats, translates to nice profits for "their" people.

Chrysler was at that time the worst auto maker of usa . Now with fiat partnership is the worst automakers of the world. What a crap

Where is the Passat the Malibu the fusion the legacy (soon)… the segment died. It’s even talks of Hyundai discontinuing the sonata. Also the fiat 500 is very VERY profitable outside the US market. Do your homework.

FCA quality now that’s something to laugh about! Mechanically the Dodge Dart is outstanding.... what a joke! 217 NHTSA complaints about the engine, and tons of failures about the transmission. Link to website: www.carcomplaints.com/Dodge/Dart/2013/

The pitfalls of being Italian? That was a moronic statement Sergio, really out of place there

Marchionne should take that shitbox Fiat and go back to Italy. For all its flaws Chrysler doesn't need a waste of space like Fiat sitting RIGHT next door to it to remind everyone that they sold themselves out to someone who can't even build a decent car on his own. Profitability is NOT worth this kind of insult.

RIP Sergio!
