Fiat Chrysler (FCA) is looking to resume some vehicle production from next week at three plants in Italy if it gets the green light from the ...

MILAN: A probable extension of Italy's lockdown could frustrate an attempt by Fiat Chrysler to resume some vehicle production at three Italian plants next week, a union representative said on Monday.

The sites concerned would be the assembly line for the Jeep Compass at the Melfi facility in southern Italy, Atessa's plant making light commercial vehicles in central Italy and preparatory operations for the new electric 500 in Turin's Mirafiori factory, he said. Despite hopes among Italian officials that the downward trend in coronavirus fatalities nationally would continue, it appeared increasingly likely that restrictions would be soon officially extended.On Sunday Regional Affairs Minister Francesco Boccia said the government would"inevitably" extend containment measures beyond April 3.

A spokesman for FCA confirmed on Monday that for now, the plan was to resume those three facilities next week.
