By GlobalDataWhile UK funding would be run by the Lloyds Banking Group retail lending arm, finance in continental Europe is planned to remain with the captive partner to the Fiat Group.
As with first-quarter and March results, the domestic UK market accounted for a disproportionately large amount, nearly a fifth, of worldwide sales: up 20% year-on-year to 72,270 for the period.
The figure was only just behind total registrations in China, which were up 48% to 77,075, and ahead of sales in North America, up 9% to 62,959. Total European registrations for FY 12/13 were up by 18% to 80,994, at a time when many manufacturers have experienced a dip in sales on the continent.
