| Fiat CEO sees Chrysler IPO in first-quarter 2014 |
Chrysler's minority shareholder, a union-affiliated healthcare trust, VEBA, decided in January of this year to sell part of its Chrysler stake in a public offering.
Fiat owns 58.5 percent of Chrysler and wants to buy the remaining stake, held by VEBA.
Marchionne said on Friday he did not believe that Fiat's and VEBA's positions on the buyout were getting any nearer.
Asked why he canceled an appearance at the Frankfurt car show this week, he said it was because he had other commitments.
