TOKYO/PARIS -- Renault's board of directors will reconvene late on Wednesday to discuss a decision on whether to enter merger talks with Italian-American peer Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, as it reviews such details as who would occupy the top posts of the integrated company.
Renault said on Tuesday that the company will "continue to study with interest the opportunity of such a combination and to extend the discussions on this subject." The deal has the potential to radically redefine the French automaker's relationship with Japanese partner Nissan Motor.
