Simultaneously the four divisions of Fiat Auto (Fiat, Alfa Romeo, Lancia and Fiat Veicoli Commerciali) were made into four , all controlled 100 percent by FCA. The former brand directors became CEOs of the new societies, while the employees and production facilities remained under FCA. At the same time the Abarth brand was relaunched as Abarth & C. S.p.A., a fifth independent society again owned 100 percent by FGA.
