Fiat pledges not to close sites at GM's Opel-report

FRANKFURT, April 26 (Reuters) - Fiat has pledged
to maintain all four German production sites of General Motors'
Opel unit should the Italian car maker acquire Opel,
German magazine Der Spiegel reported, citing a source familiar
with Fiat's plans.
Fiat would, however, not commit to keeping output capacity
at each Opel site at current levels, Der Spiegel said in its
online edition late on Sunday.
