It's almost as though they're trying to imply that he wants/wanted to acquire Tesla. Some of the quotes seem to lose context without knowing the questions that were asked though. It'd be interesting to hear him expand on some of it, but I doubt that will happen.

Financial Times said:
He added that he was “incredibly impressed” with Musk and wouldn’t dismiss Tesla’s ability to compete with the traditional automakers.

“Whether I agree with his technology choice or not, [he’s made] a phenomenal effort to move the agenda,” Marchionne said.

“The agenda needs to be moved, and the horrible thing about us [traditional automakers] going ahead and just pursuing our plan is that all these technology disruptors will come back in and make our life incredibly uncomfortable.”
