Default New Name for FCA and PSA Merger.

Yesterday, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) and Peugeot S.A. (Groupe PSA) finalised their merger to become Stellantis, the fourth-largest automaker in the world by volume.

Wow so Fiat, Chrysler and Peugeot have all merged? They just need Daewoo to join and they've successfully created the world's largest worst car manufacturers conglomerate.

I would have thought Titanic would have been a more appropriate name for the merger.

They will only sell about 8 million cars a year based off recent trends. A bit behind VW Group and Toyota with about 10-11 million a year.
Ford Motor Group is about 5.5 million.

Not new, was announced in August 2020. All the required changes have been made internally at FCA including email addresses and the like. Officially completed last week.
