Strong sales for trucks in North America helped Fiat-Chrysler (FCA) to post record financial results for the third quarter, including adjusted EBIT up 16% on last year to EUR2.3bn.
Net profit for the third quarter was EUR1.2bn while adjusted net profit was EUR1.5bn. Revenues were up 6% on last year at EUR25.8bn.
In North America, continued strong consumer demand for Ram and Jeep vehicles, coupled with a ‘disciplined approach on incentives and operational costs’, generated a record Adjusted EBIT of EUR2.5bn and 13.8% margin.
EMEA posted market share gains in the EU27 + EFTA + UK for both passenger cars and LCVs and pricing began to improve. In addition, shipments to dealers began for the new full electric Fiat 500 and plug-in hybrid versions of the Jeep Renegade and Compass.
However, worldwide combined Q3 shipments of just over 1m units were down 3% on last year.
CEO Michael Manley said the record performance was driven by North America.
