Stellantis, Nissan eye Marelli assets in rescue talks, Bloomberg reports

June 25 (Reuters) - Automakers ‌Stellantis and ​Nissan ​Motor are in talks to take over some assets of Japanese ‌auto parts supplier Marelli Holdings, Bloomberg News ⁠reported on Thursday, citing sources.

Stellantis is in discussions to ‌acquire Marelli's suspensions ‌business in Italy and some other countries, while Nissan is looking at the supplier's ​cockpit assets in Japan, the report said.

The discussions are part of broader negotiations ⁠aimed at saving the auto-parts supplier, the report added.

Marelli, which was ​created in 2019, has been closely watched because it is a major ​supplier to Nissan, which ‌is struggling to turn itself around.

Marelli filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection ⁠in the United States in June, after months of uncertainty about its talks with creditors.

The ⁠company, which is owned by private equity firm KKR, ​said in its June filing that the global trade war affected its liquidity position because of the ‌supplier's import- and export-focused business and the tariffs imposed on the automotive ‌industry.

Stellantis and Marelli declined to comment. Nissan ⁠did not immediately ‌respond to a ​Reuters' request for comment.
