Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) on Tuesday announced the appointment of Robin van Rensburg as the new CEO and MD of Fiat Group Automobiles South Africa, the importer of Fiat, Fiat Professional, Abarth and Alfa Romeo brands. Van Rensburg will hold the same title at Chrysler South Africa, the importer of Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge brands.

Van Rensburg joins the Italian–US group from Jaguar Land Rover South Africa, where he held the position of sales director.

He succeeds Marco Melani, who will return to the Fiat Chrysler head office in Turin, Italy, to resume his current responsibility for marketing for Africa.

“I am really excited to join the FCA Group and work with such exciting brands, especially during such an interesting product cycle,” noted Van Rensburg in a statement.

“[This year] is set to be monumental for our brands with product introductions like the Alfa Romeo Giulia, Abarth 124 Spider and 595, Fiat Tipo and the extension of the Fiat Professional Fullback range. 

“I look forward to adding a South African touch to the proudly Italian and American brands.”
