Former Saab executives arrested in accounting-fraud probe

Three former Saab executives, including former CEO Jan-Aake Jonsson, were arrested Monday on suspicion of “grave attempts to complicate tax controls” during 2010 and 2011, according to a report from Bloomberg. The Swedish Economic Crime Authority's chief prosecutor, Olof Sahlgren, declined to give the names of the arrested, but Bloomberg confirmed in court documents that Jonsson, former chief financial officer Karl-Gustav Lindstroem and formal general counsel Kristina Geers were detained. “It's about accounting measures to complicate the control operations of the tax authority regarding the calculation of taxes and fees,” Sahlgren told Bloomberg.

Alfa Romeo going to the USA

Alfa Romeo is going back to the US for the first time in almost 20 years We already know that the only Fiat making its way to the US is the Fiat 500, but it now looks as if a big chunk of the Alfa Romeo range will make the journey too. Sergio Marchionne, Fiat’s boss and the new head of Chrysler, has been working on rationalising Chrysler’s management and working out the best way forward. As mentioned, only the Fiat 500 will be offered for sale in America (and probably built in Mexico), with Fiat platforms being used to build new Chryslers that will be designed and built in the States.

There’s also the negligible cost of electricity to charge the car (for now, at least) and the zero emissions at the point of use.
