Default Maserati plans first U.S.-made SUV at Chrysler plant

Fiat S.p.A.'s ultra-luxury Maserati brand plans to build its first U.S.-made SUV at Chrysler Group's Jefferson North assembly plant in Detroit, said a person familiar with the matter.

A concept version of the model, which will be based on the Jeep Grand Cherokee, is due to be unveiled at the IAA in Frankfurt next month, said the person, who declined to be identified before the official announcement.
