Supermarket allowed to continue Fiat sales

A German supermarket chain can continue selling Fiat subcompact cars along with toilet paper, bratwurst and other items, a state court ruled Friday.

The court rejected Italian automaker Fiat's request to halt the special offer, brushing off the company's arguments that played in part on conservative German buying habits and the lack of a U.S.-style discount and sale culture.

Fiat accused the Edeka supermarket chain of misleading customers in publicizing the deal launched last week, which offers shoppers a $10,850 Fiat Punto as part of two package deals that also include items such as a mobile phone or laptop computer.

Fiat said it would appeal the ruling.

Edeka agreed last week not to use the Fiat brand name in the deals' advertisements and stopped advertising on the Internet.
