$STLA· Jeep, Peugeot, Citroën, Fiat, Opel, Maserati, Alfa Romeo, Chrysler, Dodge
Operates 14 automotive brands spanning mass-market (Fiat, Peugeot, Jeep) to luxury (Maserati) across all major global regions. Fourth-largest automaker globally with €180B+ revenue and ~5.4M total vehicle sales in 2024 including ~530K BEV+PHEV deliveries. Accelerating electrification with dedicated STLA platforms while partnering with Leapmotor for affordable Chinese EV distribution worldwide.
Key Milestones
Stellantis formed via PSA-FCA merger: inheriting EVs across Peugeot, Citroen, Opel, Fiat, Jeep, Ram, and Chrysler, instantly creating the world's fourth-largest automaker by volume.
EV Day 2021 unveils €30B+ electrification plan and four BEV-native platforms (STLA Small/Medium/Large/Frame) through 2030: Stellantis's first defining strategic vision under CEO Carlos Tavares.
Peugeot e-308 launches in Europe on STLA Medium: Stellantis's first BEV on a dedicated platform and a critical proof point for the new architecture.
Fiat 500e launches in U.S. as Fiat's first BEV in North America: built on Stellantis's smallest EV platform; modest sales but reestablishes Fiat brand presence in the U.S.
Invests €1.5B for ~20% stake in China's Leapmotor: creates Leapmotor International to export Chinese EVs ex-China; a counter-flow innovation in Western-OEM/Chinese-EV-startup partnership models.
Reveals Jeep Wagoneer S: Jeep brand's first global BEV with 600 hp and 300+ mile range on STLA Large platform, designed to be the brand's halo electric for U.S. and global markets.
Dodge Charger Daytona EV launches as Dodge's first muscle-car BEV: reviving the Charger nameplate as electric and bringing simulated 'exhaust' sound and gear shifts to capture muscle-car heritage.
Pulls Ram 1500 Ramcharger range-extender ahead of Ram 1500 BEV: pure-EV truck delayed amid weak U.S. EV demand and Stellantis pivots to EREV-first for Ram pickup, mirroring U.S. consumer realities.
Carlos Tavares resigns as CEO under board pressure after 2024 sales collapse and U.S. dealer revolt: board names Antonio Filosa successor, signaling pivot from Tavares-style cost discipline to commercial recovery.
Production start of Jeep Wagoneer S and Dodge Charger Daytona at Windsor and Toluca: first STLA Large U.S. volume; Wagoneer S production temporarily paused later in 2025 due to soft demand.
Stellantis books $1.6B charge for U.S. EV-strategy reset: paring back STLA Large rollout and shifting Ram pickup to EREV-first; exemplifies the pause hitting Detroit Big Three EV pivots.
Stellantis and Leapmotor announce intent to deepen JV: with potential Opel C-SUV production from 2028 using Leapmotor's LEAP 3.5 architecture, demonstrating maturing Chinese-platform integration.
