Stellantis, a global leader in the automotive industry, has recently made significant strategic adjustments. The company has reportedly shelved its Level 3 driver-assistance program and scaled back its software ambitions. This move comes as Stellantis focuses on more feasible projects, according to sources.Stellantis, which owns brands such as Abarth, Alfa Romeo, Chrysler, and more, has a diverse portfolio of vehicles and is primarily driven by passenger cars and light commercial vehicles in North America, France, and Brazil. The company has been under pressure to balance the development of electric vehicles (EVs) and traditional combustion engines, given the market's struggles with EV adoption [2].
In addition to these strategic shifts, Stellantis has also announced plans to introduce two new four-cylinder engines. The first is a 1.6-liter turbo hybrid engine, scheduled to debut in the 2026 Jeep Cherokee in the U.S. and potentially in Europe. The second is an upgraded 2.0-liter GME-T4 Evo, which will power multiple models across the Stellantis portfolio, including the Jeep Wagoneer S [2].
These developments reflect Stellantis's ongoing efforts to adapt to market conditions and maintain its competitive edge. The company's focus on more practical projects and the introduction of new engine technologies indicate a strategic realignment aimed at addressing both current market demands and future technological trends.
