The Chinese firm specialises in making SUVs and has confirmed interest in owning a part of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. Great Wall is currently China’s biggest producer of SUVs and a company spokesperson told Reuters that the company is interested in buying at least a part of FCA.
It’s uncertain right now whether Great Wall wants to buy a part shareholding in the group or the whole Fiat Chrysler group, which has Abarth, Alfa Romeo, Chrysler, Dodge, Fiat, Lancia, Maserati, and Ram, and a host of automotive part supply companies in its portfolios. Ram is also an SUV maker that’s focused on the North American market, while Jeep sells more globally.
