Mercedes-Benz Ends Talks With Fiat Group

According to a report from German car magazine Auto Motor Und Sport, Mercedes-Benz has ended talks with Fiat about a possible partnership between the two groups in concern of platform sharing due to the fact that MB didn’t find any cost advantages. A Mercedes-Benz manager told the magazine that the Italian carmaker produces its small models more expensively than they do. Although Mercedes-Benz is still in talks with BMW for a possible cooperation in terms of platform sharing for the new A and B-Class front-wheel drive models, if everything fails, the German carmaker will go ahead and develop the platforms alone.
