From June 10 to 16, 2016, the Para Athletics European Championships are taking place in the Tuscan city of Grosseto. Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) is the main sponsor of this sporting event through its Autonomy program, which meets the needs of people with physical, sensory, or intellectual disabilities (or those accompanying them), enabling them to use cars and thus gain freedom of movement.
For over twenty years, Autonomy has offered a full range of passenger cars and commercial vehicles from brands belonging to Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (Fiat, Lancia, Alfa Romeo, Abarth, Jeep, and Fiat Professional), as well as a range of services that provide concrete help in solving problems related to driving a vehicle adapted to the capabilities of people with disabilities.
Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA), through its Autonomy program and by providing 15 courtesy cars and 8 vehicles adapted for transporting disabled athletes to support the Para Athletics European Championships in Grosseto, identifies with over 600 athletes (a record number) from 40 European countries who will compete for over 190 titles and qualification for the Paralympic Games in Rio de Janeiro in September.
