The Rairdon Group, a leading group of dealerships in Northwestern Washington, hopes to be one of those selected, an exciting possibility for both Rairdon and Seattle Fiat enthusiasts alike.

Seattle Fiat Dealer News

Rairdon would be proud to add the iconic Fiat brand to its wide selection of vehicles and be one of the first dealerships in the country to offer the Fiat 500.

Later, three other versions of the 500 will be available: a cloth-top convertible, a high-performance vehicle with up to 185 horsepower and, in 2012, an electric version of the 500.

Those chosen will build separate showrooms with a distinctive European feel well-suited to the Italian-born Fiat.

Fiat will then provide these dealerships, Rairdon hopefully among them, with marketing cars that Seattle Fiat customers can explore and learn more about.

Dealerships will also begin taking orders when the vehicles arrive.

With the emphasis today on fuel efficiency, now seems a perfect time for Fiat to re-enter the U.S. market.

Stay connected to the Rairdon Group during the month of October for the latest news on its potential Seattle Fiat dealership.

It is generally believed that Americans don’t have much of an appetite for small cars.  It is also generally believed that, when the Fiat brand left US shores in 1983, the brand’s image was so badly tarnished that a US comeback would be nothing more than an embarrassing (and expensive!) failure.

The good people at Fiat might like to remind you that it’s good to question your beliefs, now and again.

Fiat had high hopes for the 500C in the US – the little compact was to lead the charge for the first American Fiats in nearly 30 years.  For many American carbuyers, the 500C would be their first encounter with the brand, so the car’s success or failure would be critical to the early growth of the brand.

If early indicators can be trusted, Fiat needn’t worry:  all 500 examples of the limited-edition 2011 Fiat 500 Prima are already spoken for.

Laura Stove, the head of Fiat North America, is thrilled by this early success, remarking that ”it’s important that the Fiat enthusiasts and fans are among the first to receive their very own Fiat 500 Prima Edizione vehicles, as they share the same excitement about the brand’s presence in North America.  As we begin to introduce Fiat to North America, our goal is to develop a solid relationship with our customers so they are made to feel as part of the brand.”

Selling out of 500C Primas months before they’re available to be driven is a good start for Fiat as a brand, and (hopefully!) an indiciator that Americans might be finally ready to accept “smaller” European cars with smaller, more fuel-efficient engines.  Whatever the cars, this particular FLU member will be keeping his fingers crossed for a successful Fiat return.

Chrysler officials told Seattle Fiat dealers that the Fiat 500 will offer lots of customization opportunities and that they expect customers to pre-order cars and choose from a long list of options and colors. They told Seattle Fiat dealers sales personnel will function almost like interior design consultants in helping customers choose from all the options available to them.

That approach will pit the 500 in direct competition with BMW AG’s Mini brand.

The 500 will be made at Chrysler’s Toluca, Mexico, factory with Fiat 1.4-liter MultiAir engines shipped from Dundee, Mich.

Seattle Fiat dealers who attended the event said Chrysler’s presentation was organized and impressive.

David Kelleher, owner of David Dodge Chrysler Jeep in Glen Mills, Pa., described Chrysler’s capital requirements as “reasonable.” He declined to give specifics.

“This is an opportunity to diversify yourself from being a high volume American brand dealer” into something different, “not competing and tripping over” other dealerships selling the same brands, he said. “That gives me diversity in my structure. That helps me weather some storms.”

Carl Galeana, owner of Van Dyke Dodge in Warren, Mich., said he is encouraged because he owns a Saturn franchise that will be going out of business at the end of October.

“This reminded me of one of my first Saturn meetings,” he said. “They signaled what the brand was and what they hoped it would be. It was very Saturn like.”

Galeana was also encouraged because Chrysler didn’t rule out the notion that single-point dealers who don’t have all four Chrysler brands could obtain a Fiat franchise.

Seattle Fiat dealer, Rairdon Fiat, couldn’t be more excited to start “owning” the high responsibility of being one of the only Chrysler dealerships in America to sell Fiat cars.

Chrysler hopes to sell 50,000 of the stylish, bulb-shaped 500s the first year they arrive. Eventually four versions will be offered, a standard 500, a cloth-top convertible, a high performance version with up to 185 horsepower, and in 2012, an electric version.

Dealers have been asked to build separate showrooms and have separate sales and service staffs for the cars, in order to help create a distinctive European aura for the 500.

Dealers were happy for a chance to sell a competitive small car, because they have had little to offer in the segment.

“There’s no doubt about it. It’s a home run,” said Alan Helfman vice president of River Oaks Chrysler Jeep in Houston. “It’s not going to make it from day one, but it will be a good seller, and it’s a market I don’t play in right now.”

Helfman, whose dealership is near Rice University, said the car will appeal to younger people who care about the environment and fuel economy.

Pricing for the 500 wasn’t announced, but it’s expected to be around $15,000. Sales of minicars make up only about 5 percent of U.S. car sales, but the 500 can draw in customers and lend its European sophistication to Chrysler’s entire lineup.

“Our dealers will be able to interact with a group of individuals that are not part of their current customer base,” said Laura Soave, a former Ford Motor Co. and Volkswagen AG executive who is now head of the Fiat brand in North America.

Rairdon’s WA Fiat dealerships are excited to make new changes to our current Seattle Chrysler dealerships. The sale of the Fiat can not come soon enough. A European flare at Seattle Fiat dealers will add a nice touch. If you have questions about Fiat in America, please call a WA Fiat dealer at 877-337-2123.

The new Bravo is a perfect blend of beauty and substance, a harmonious combination of elements, creating a car of classic elegance yet futuristic design. As seductive as a coupe, the Bravo conveys all the excellence of Italian motoring expertise. In 2010, Fiat Bravo comes on the market with a number of changes of style and amenities, designed to make it more modern, stylish and more attractive to customers.

2010 Fiat Bravo

It boasts generous dimensions – 4.34 m long, 1.79 m wide and 1.49 m high, with a wheelbase of 2.60 m – and its soft, fluid lines simply underline the muscular prowess of a grand touring car. The front makes a decisive contribution to the impression of sportiness, with the sloping windscreen and attractive drop-shape lights. The rear gives the impression of great compactness and dynamism. The Bravo’s sporting temperament still leaves room for a welcoming, warm and comfortable interior, which is solid and safe at the same time.

For 2010, the Italian automaker has introduced stylish enhancements that add to the car’s overall appeal.  Besides two new exterior colors, the 2010 Fiat Bravo received a redesigned front grille, body colored exterior mirrors and door handles plus new projectors.

The range of engines remains the same but the 9 engines available cover any type of requirement, and among these, if you care for the environment, then pick the 1.4 90 HP (which is already Euro 5) and the LPG versions, also available in the Emotion trim. And for those who want to save on the pennies, the Bravo 2010 offers new optional “packs”. The Active Sound pack containing fog lights, radio CD and MP3 player in the Active version; the Blue Dynamic pack offering Blue&MeTM, rear parking sensors and rear electric windows in the Dynamic version; the Blue Emotion pack which includes Blue&MeTM, front and rear parking sensors, rain and dusk sensor, and electric folding door mirrors in the Emotion version; and last but not least the Blue Sport pack with Blue&MeTM, 18” alloy wheels, and tinted rear windows and screen in the Sport version.

The new Fiat Bravo is a head turner and the overall exterior and interior changes have been well received within the auto industry.

Rairdon’s Seattle WA Fiat dealer was one of 600 dealers to attend the Auburn Hills meeting. Chrysler will only pick 200 dealer -, a mere third of the dealers that attended will be able to sell the Italian Brand. Following the Fiat brand, Chrysler plans on reintroducing the Alfa Romeo brand in the United States. CEO of Chrysler and Fiat, Sergio Marchionne, told reporters today that Alfa Romeo vehicles will likely be sold at Fiat dealerships nationwide.

“It’s more than likely that Fiat and Alfa Romeo brands will be sold in the same” dealerships, Marchionne said.

Rairdon Fiat is excited to see progress in the Fiat brand’s arrival in the US. The first Fiat to hit the Seattle Fiat dealerships is the Fiat 500. Seattle Fiat shoppers will luck out for a change, as the US will get an upgraded version of the European Fiat 500. The Seattle Fiat 500 will ride on a new platform shared with the Fiat Panda, resulting in better crash protection, a lighter weight and a quieter ride. Its fuel efficiency in a time of rising oil prices should also be a strong selling point, and the 500′s retro styling could win over the populace. Fiat cars are set to start selling later this year and that is exciting news for Fiat Seattle shoppers.

Rairdon Fiat in Seattle is very excited to be one of 200 Fiat dealers in the U.S. Right now Seattle Fiat shoppers can pre-order the Fiat 500. It is expected that the Fiat will sell fast, so place your order today! Please contact a Seattle Fiat specialist for pre-ordering information at 877-337-2123.

The old Chrysler has faded away and a new Chrysler has been born.  This would not have been possible without the new and exciting alliance with the Fiat family of companies – Fiat, Lancia®, Alfa Romeo®, Maserati® and Ferrari®.

Fiat currently owns a 20% share of Chrysler and when Chrysler pays back the United States TARP and Canadian EDC loans by 2014, Fiat will become a majority shareholder in Chrysler, with a 35% share.

For you and me as American consumers, this incredible union will provide a complete revamping of the current product line.  In fact, 75 percent of the current lineup will be enhanced within the next 14 months and 100 percent of all vehicles will be refreshed and reinvented by 2012.

The first roll out of this revamping will be in July of 2010 with the arrival of the completely reengineered and redesigned 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee, available at our Seattle Fiat dealers.  Read more about the safety features of the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee from our Seattle Fiat dealership.

The Fiat/Chrysler marriage will greatly affect Seattle car buyers that have never considered Chrysler before. Our Seattle Fiat dealerships will start off the union with an incredible line up.

Fiat 500 in Seattle

The Fiat 500 of today is a more modern and advanced version of the Fiat 500 sold from 1957-1975.  Designed by Frank Stephenson, (the same Frank Stephenson that designed the Mini) this car will have the most pristine engineering, incredible gas mileage and super chic retro design.

The 2011 Fiat 500 will be about 5 inches shorter, over an inch slimmer, and 3.2 inches taller than the equivalent Mini Cooper. It’s also lighter by about 300 pounds.

The first Fiat to hit our Seattle Fiat dealer lots will most likely be a 94-horsepower 1.4-liter engine tied to a 6-speed manual transmission with a respectible 107 pound-feet of torque.  Industry guesses are that it will also come in an automatic.  There’s nothing like the excitement that comes with the unknown.

If you’re interested in becoming a proud Seattle 2011 Fiat 500 owner, I would highly suggest you prepare to snag one up as soon as they are released.  In Europe, the demand is so great that there is a waiting list.  Our Seattle dealer locations are:

• Kirkland
• Monroe
• Smokey Point
• Bellingham

Our Seattle Fiat dealership can not wait for the changes to come. Stop by one of our Seattle dealerships today!
