Tuesday, Dec 17, 2024 12:54 pm ET
3min read Stellantis, the world's fourth-largest automaker, has announced plans to revitalize its Italian production, with a focus on electric vehicles (EVs). The company aims to increase output from 2026, driven by new models and platforms. In Italy, Stellantis will produce two compact models at its Pomigliano plant, introducing the 'STLA Small' platform starting in 2028. Additionally, the production of the Panda car at the Campania plant will be extended until 2030, followed by the introduction of the new generation of the same model. These plans align with Stellantis' broader electrification strategy, which includes the launch of approximately 20 new models in 2024, featuring the initial offerings from the STLA platform family with superior multi-energy flexibility.
Stellantis' Italian production strategy fits into its broader global electrification roadmap. The company plans to launch 39 new electrified models by 2025, with 100% of its European passenger car sales being battery electric vehicles (BEVs) by 2030. By investing in Italy, Stellantis can leverage the country's skilled workforce and maintain its presence in the European market.
Stellantis plans to balance production of internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles and electric vehicles (EVs) in Italy by introducing new models and investing in existing plants. The company aims to increase output from 2026, with all Italian plants remaining active. This strategy aligns with the global shift towards EVs, as Stellantis targets 30% of its sales to be electric by 2025.
The shift to electric vehicles is crucial for achieving a sustainable future. As technology continues to evolve and costs decrease, EVs will play an increasingly important role in meeting global transportation needs. Stellantis' commitment to Italy and its investment in new models and platforms underscore the company's dedication to driving innovation and growth in the EV market.
