I've blogged about the modifications that car makers need to make to a European car model before that car can be introduced to the American market (usually because of U.S. regulations). And I've blogged, more than once, about Americans' obesity.
Here is a bit of news that ties those two themes together: Since the Italian automaker FIAT now controls Chrysler, they plan to sell the tiny Fiat 500 in the U.S. One of the modifications being made to the 500 for the U.S. is wider seats. Gee, I wonder why that's necessary.
