Pisao sam ja davno o ovome motoru. Prvi puta kasne 2015. Smrdilo mi je da GME neće biti samo sa 4 cilindra. Znam da se jedno vrijeme razmišljalo i o 3.

Od negdje druge polovice il' kraja 2016. znam da se počeo razvijati.

Što ne znam. Hoće li razvoj otići do kraja.
Isto tako znam da Alfin V6 90° nigdje ne ide.
Moguće da ovaj motor bude specijalka za američki dio grupacije.

Maserati bi mogao dobiti skroz novi Ferrari V6. Jučer je Ferrari najavio da radi na V6.

Priča se da je novi Ferrari V6 motor 120° dizajn. Jako zanimljivo rekao bih.

Mislim da im je F1 V6 turbo '80-tih bio tog dizajna.
A i ovaj postojeći alfin V6 je recimo van uobičajene "dogme" sa, za v6, nepravilnim 90* kutom.

S.M. · « **Odgovori #454 u:** 21-09-2018, 22:41:16 »

Imali su oni još ranije takav dizajn ali Enzo ga nije volio pa su prešli na V6 65°.

Alfin V6 je uobičajen bio za promotivne V6 dizajne u automobilma. Odsjeci 2 cilindra od V8 i eto ga.
Baš su to i napravili. Čak ostavili i nepravilan redoslijed paljenja.

Talijani pišu da je bio sasatnak određenih Fiatovih direktora i srbijanske premijerke Ane Brnabić.

Novi model iz Kragujevca bi mogao biti crossover B segmenta.

Što u članku ne piše, a što sam ja čuo. Dimenzije i međuosovinski razmak kao 500L. Nekih 2 tisuće eura jeftiniji u većini EU zemalja. Predstavljanje u studenom 2019. sa početkom proizvodnje u proljeće 2020. Motorizacija GSE N4, GSE T3, GSE T4. Naravno neki kao mild hybrid.

GME T6 će koliko znam biti za američke FCA brandove.

Blok je closed deck. Veze baš nema sa blokom za GME T4.

Barem neke verzije će imati eBooster. Za one koji ne znaju to je električni kompresor.

Počeo razvoj barem 2015. Kako je za potpuno novi motor uobičajeno vrijeme razvoja bar 5 godina tako se debi 2020. u skroz novom Grand Cherokeeu WL MY2021 čini realan.

Upravo završio Conference Call povodom kvartalnih rezultata FCA.

Europa je u stanju zbog prelaska na WLTP.

I mogla bi biti do polovice sljedeće godine.

Alfa dogodine dobiva update interijera, šta god to značilo.

Kod Amerikanaca je sve ružičasto. Prešli su 10% EBIT margine sa stavljanjem proizvodnje novog Rama 1500 u puni pogon.

Dugoročni cilj u Europi je dostići marginu u rangu PSA koji je svijetli primjer u Europi.
Trenutno su bolji od PSA kada je riječ o Low cost flotnoj prodaji no prosječna cijena vozila u segmentima gdje je PSA jak je veća nego kod FCA. Znači FCA mora ljude pomaknuti ka skupljim vozilima i to je dugoročni cilj.

Izgleda da će se Manley za razliku od svojega prethodnika Marchionnea više baviti Europom. Zato je i stavio na čelo europskog dijela FCA čovjeka od povjerenja Pietra Gorliera.

Sada nevezano za Conference Call i neslužbeno.
29. studenog bi trebao biti sastanak Gorliera sa talijanskim sindikatima. Tada će predstaviti plan za budućnost tvornica, što će se proizvoditi u njima i kada.
Moguće da bude prisutan i CEO Manley.
Ono što se neslužbeno očekuje je pažnja ka brandu Fiat. Veća nego do sada. Vidjet ćemo je li to istina.

Ako se nekome da čitati. Izvukao sam uglavnom stvari bitne za našu regiju.

https://seekingalpha.com/article/4216074-fiat-chrysler-automobiles-nv-fcau-q3-2018-results-earnings-call-transcript?part=single

Citat:

In Europe, we did not enter the WLTP transition as lean on inventory as we would have hoped, and therefore, we needed to utilize high discount sales channels which obviously yielded lower margins and came at a cost to us in the quarter. Now, on a positive note, all vehicles across each of our brands in EMEA were certified under the WLTP standards in advance of the regulatory deadline, and therefore, we're not going to be limited in our offerings going forward. And I would like just to take a moment to thank our powertrain and vehicle engineering teams that worked hard to make that happen.

And as you know, we recently announced the appointment of Pietro Gorlier as COO of the region. And Pietro has a strong track record of improving margins at Magneti Marelli and MOPAR. And he's already focused on this task in EMEA. And as a result, we'll have a more disciplined approach both from a brand and a channel mix perspective. And I expect to see positive development at our brands and improved margins over the coming quarters even if this comes with the short-term reduction in overall volume. The end result will be a better quality business in our EMEA region.

Citat:

Rod Lache - Wolfe Research

Hi, everybody. Had a few questions. First, was wondering if you could provide just an early view on Europe heading into 2019 for the market and for Fiat Chrysler specifically. Obviously, some volatility right now, but do you believe that the volume and pricing weakness is temporary or no?

Michael Mark Manley - Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV

So this is Mike. I think what we saw in the third quarter, as we described, really was driven by that level of inventory as we came up to that transition date which meant that we had to do things over and above we would normally do to get our inventory in the right position. But, notwithstanding that, if I look back at our performance in EMEA, we began to make progress in terms of our overall margins. And I think that was focused on the areas of, clearly, Jeep brand and mix.

But, from my point of view, I think we still have significant upside and that's one of the key reasons why I think Pietro is a great fit for that role. We clearly have a strong benchmark in Europe, and I think the way that they have improved their margins is something that we've shown we can do in North America and we now just need to make sure we do, do it in EMEA.

So, I see the third quarter as an anomaly. I think we'll improve from that. I think it will take a little while just to clear out some of the used cars from the entire channel that Richard talked about. But we're very focused on margin improvement not just on that price position but also our cost position. So, from that regard, I think we understand what we need and the third quarter, as I said, was an anomaly.

Citat:

Monica Bosio - Intesa Sanpaolo SpA

Good afternoon, everyone. I would have three questions. The first one is a follow-up on EMEA. I understood that inventories are expected to slow down and to normalize in the last quarter. I'm just wondering should, in any case, expect a still negative pricing impact and a sort of cash burning (54:34) from EMEA in the last quarter?

The second question is on Maserati. It's a similar question. It's on the volume slowdown. I can imagine that the last quarter would be similar to the third quarter given that China is the main contributor to the slowdown of the volume. Can you just give me a check on this and maybe some color on what you expect for Maserati in 2019?

And the very last question is a more general question on the raw material. Can you just give a rough indication of the impact of the higher raw material costs for 2018? If I remember well, you have added contract on the raw materials that are going to expire in this year and I'm just wondering what we can figure out for the next year in terms of higher impact from raw materials given that the steel price is increasing and, if I'm not wrong, also the plastic. Thank you very much.

Michael Mark Manley - Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV

Yeah, Monica. This is Mike. I'm going to answer the Maserati question first. Obviously, the conditions in China market aren't helping. As you know, with Maserati, China accounts were around 50%, maybe just over 50% of Maserati's profit comes from one market. But I think, with hindsight, when we put Maserati and Alfa together, it did two things. Firstly, it reduced the focus on Maserati the brand. And secondly, Maserati was treated for a period of time almost as if it was a mass market brand which it isn't and shouldn't be treated that way.

So, what we've now done is really purify the focus on the brand, split it from Alfa as you know, put Harald Wester in charge. And Harald has a good understanding of the luxury segment and a deep understanding of Maserati as a brand. That will be followed by some further actions that we're going to take in the fourth quarter. And I think, for me, when I look at Maserati's performance, it's not so much a product issue, but more a management and focus issue. So I think we've had those things addressed. The product remains competitive. In fact, the Levante just won a Texas SUV of the Year Award and that's highly competitive.

So, I think it would take at least two quarters as I said in my opening statements to sort through some of the channel issues, but I am expecting Harald and his new team to make some significant progress with Maserati as we get into the second half of 2019.

Citat:

Michael Mark Manley - Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV

Let me quickly deal with Maserati. The margin target, as you said, was 15% in 2022. I have no reason to believe that Maserati can't achieve that with what I'm seeing today. In terms of Alfa, Alfa does not make a contribution in our business plan – in our performance this year. We are seeing what I think is some good improvement with Alfa.

If you look at its volume improvement year-over-year in the three regions that it operates in, on average, I think it's about 20% up so far. And that volume, even though we're seeing good growth, I still need that volume to grow. So, Alfa, as we get into next year, will have a significant interior refresh and I think that would just build on the volume that we're seeing – the volume improvement we're seeing this year, but it's not making a contribution in 2018.

Citat:

José M. Asumendi - JPMorgan Securities Plc

Yeah. Thanks so much. Just a couple of questions, please. First one on Europe for Mike. Do you mind maybe sharing your longer-term plans for the region? Are you happy with the current margin structure? Do you think you need to do any changes on the cost structure or product cycle for that matter?

And second for Richard. Working capital assumptions for the fourth quarter, can you help us a little bit around receivables, payables and inventories. What are your best assumptions now for the fourth quarter which should tie up with your cash guidance for the year, please? Thank you.

Michael Mark Manley - Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV

Yeah, José, it's Mike. No, I'm not happy with what I see in EMEA, notwithstanding the fourth quarter. As you know, our margins – notwithstanding the third quarter rather – our margins before that were around, I don't know, 2.8%, 3% margins. We know that some of our peers are getting more than 6% in the region. I think we have a good understanding of what we need to do to deliver that.

And I'll just quickly click down and let me know if it answers your questions. One of the things that I think we have the benefit of is the brands and I think our brand positioning needs to be clarified. That work is now done and I'm talking about the part of the segment that they play in because that's done. I think we can now truly focus on our pricing and our average transaction price because we've got a much clearer picture now of the competitors that we need to be going after.

So I think that there is, for sure, pricing opportunity particularly with the product refreshes that we've got. Our channel mix in Europe, as you know, has often been our weakness in the past. It would take us a little while to make permanent adjustments to that and you may see some volume impact, but the quality of our margins will improve as a result of doing that. And that's something that Pietro and the team are already focused on.

From a cost point of view, clearly, if you can combine margin improvement with the cost point of view – with an improved cost base, then for me, we can get margins that grow fairly significantly. And one of the big focuses for us in the area is to drive our margins up particularly as we get closer to 2021 and higher levels of electrification.

So I think we have the right team in place. I think we have a right understanding of the things that we need to do. Some of those actions are quicker than others. But all of them now are in focus and underway. And I'll hand it to Richard for the second part of the question.

Dati ću scan ili sliku testa. 1.3 troši manje od 1.0 u 500X

500X nije lagan. Trebao bi biti teži od Giuliette.

Ima točna potrošnja pri određenoj brzini i još grad, otvorena i autocesta.

Imam neke podatke kod sebe. Vmax je 200 km/h, ubrzanje do 100 čini mi se 9.3 sekunde.
Pri 100 km/h troši 5.7 litara na 100 km. Pri 130 km/h je na 7.8 litara, a na 140 km/h 8.4 litre.
Brzinu oni mjere. Vrlo vjerojatno je na tih pravih 140 već na satu bliže 150 km/h.

U pitanju je DCT. Kao što sam rekao 1.3 sa 150 KS.

1.4 140 KS sa manualcem je išao 10.1 sekundu do 100 km/h. Vmax 188 km/h.

Njemac je testira, al OK, svidilo mu se sve osim potrošnje, on je sigurno vozija drugćije nego šta bi neko od tocke A do tocke B. Testira je, palija tempomat, vozija uzbrdo, al i sam kaže da se nije utrkiva, a 12L. Gledan neke talijanske testove, mali 1.0, 10L, ispod talijani pizdu o velikoj potrošnji u komentarima...
Mali 1.0 ima 120ks i pristojan moment, težina 500X ili giuliette i sl. je sasvin normalna za svoju klasu, i taj motor je baš i namjenjen ka poćetni u takvin autama. Taj bi se triba najviše i prodavat, neznan koja je onda svrha takvoga motora, ako tolko troši? Mogli su ka i do sada reducirat snagu 1.3 na 120ks.... Susid ima giuliettu t-jet 120ks, pa mu troši debelo ispod 9L, nema DI, nema MA, nema i sve šta već ta nova linija motora ima. Oni možda imaju napredak po pitanju ispušnih plinova i ekologije al praktički nikakvi za kupca, ispada još i gore...

1.4 MultiAir II 140 KS
Pri 100 km/h troši 6.4 litre na 100 km.
Pri 130 km/h troši 9.1 litru na 100 km.

1.3 MultiAir III 150 KS
Pri 100 km/h troši 5.7 litara na 100 km.
Pri 130 km/h troši 7.8 litara na 100 km.
Pri 140 km/h troši 8.4 litre na 100 km.

Kako to nije napredak? Još uz to dolaze i bolje performanse.

1.4 u gradu troši 8 litara, na otvorenoj 7 litara, a na autocesti 8.5 litara.

1.3 grad 8, otvorena 6.4, a autocesta 7.4 litre.

Znači ima napredka. Sada osjeti li ga netko ili ne ne bih znao reći.

Isto tako po testovima međuubrzanja izgleda da Fiat nije uškopio ove motore, a što je postao trend sa Euro 6D motorima. Valjda da iskažu manju službenu potrošnju.

Izrazio sam svoje zgražanje podatkom da Audi Q3 2.0 TDI ima išta međuubrzanja kao 500X sa 1.0 mlincem

U razdoblju od 2019. do 2021. će se uložiti 5 milijardi eura u talijanske tvornice za 13 novih i facelift modela iz Italije.

Električni Fiat 500 će se proizvoditi u Mirafioiru.

Panda ostaje u Pomiglianu i dobit će mild hybrid motor.
Alfin kompaktni SUV dolazi u Pomigliano.

Jeep Compass za Europu će se proizvoditi u Melfi sa 500 i Renegadeom. Trebao bi dobiti PHEV verziju.

To je konkretno spomenuto od modela. No ovo je procurilo već neko vrijeme pa se samo radi o službenoj potvrdi.

Dizel nije mrtav i ostaje barem do kraja 2020.

Fiat Chrysler otvara novu tvornicu za proizvodnju automobila u Detroitu. To je prva nova tvornica Velike Trojke u SAD-u nakon punih 27 godina.

Služiti će vrlo vjerojatno za proizvodnju SUV sa 3 reda sjedala na bazi novog Grand Cherokeea. Vrlo vjerojatno će se tu negdje proizvoditi i Alfin SUV u E segmentu. Kažem tu negdje jer je zhrada tvornice gdje se proizvodi Grand Cherokee udaljena nekih 500 metara, dijeli ih samo cesta.
