Fiat Sales Data, Trends, Analysis & Current Lineup for the U.S Automotive Market
This is your hub for all of the Fiat sales data for the U.S market. Fiat has been in business in North America, particularly, in the US since 1908.

The manufacturing plant was closed in 1917, however, after the US entered the World War I.
It took several decades after the World War I before Fiat returned to US. In 1950s, the company began selling selling the original 500, Fiat 600 Multipla, Fiat 1100, Fiat 1200, and the Fiat 1300. Other models introduced by the company 1950s in the US include the Fiat 124 Sport Spider and the Fiat X1/9. As a result, Fiat saw its sales rise for the next couple of years. In the early 1980s though, Fiat sales has drop tremendously. After selling, over 100,000 vehicles in 1975, their sales drop to just around 14,000 in 1928. This caused Fiat to leave the American market in 1983.
Fiat came back to North America in 2009 after they acquired a 20% stake in Chrysler (US automaker). The company then started selling Fiat cars in the US with their internationally popular Fiat 500 city car. Fiat also sells other models in the US such as Fiat Ducato and Fiat Doblo which they rebranded as Ram ProMaster and Ram ProMaster City respectively.
