Sergio Marchionne confirmed speculation that Ferrari NV will make its first sport utility vehicle model while tamping down rumors that Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV may part ways with Jeep.

The comments went a step further from when the CEO said during an August earnings call that an SUV would “probably happen.”
