More specifically, the publication has taken a closer look at how Chrysler (http://www.autoblog.com/chrysler) managed to go from Dead On Arrival to enjoying sales that are up 23 percent compared to the third quarter of 2010.
The company is expected to see sales of $55 billion in 2011. Talk about a turnaround. The piece focuses specifically on Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/sergio marchionne), his role in pulling the automaker from the gutter, and just how crucial the company's government bailout was to retaining 40,000 jobs.
Time also takes a closer look at what its like to work with Marchionne by taking the time to speak with Laura Soave (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/laura soave). Until recently (http://www.autoblog.com/2011/11/21/laura-soave-out-at-fiat/), Soave was the head of Fiat (http://www.autoblog.com/fiat) in North America. Needless to say, the full text should make for an interesting read.
