STELLANTIS CEO ANTONIO FILOSA | FIRESIDE CHAT AT KEPLER CHEUVREUX AUTUMN CONFERENCE 2025

EV Channels Review

Stellantis CEO Antonio Filosa, in a fireside chat at the Kepler Cheuvreux Autumn Conference 2025, outlined a strategic focus on business growth, flawless industrial execution, and increased profits. A key priority is regaining market share in North America, particularly by reintroducing popular models like the Ram 1500 with the HEMI V8, the Dodge Charger with an internal combustion engine option alongside the EV, and the Jeep Cherokee. Filosa emphasized rigorous inventory management and a commitment to listening to dealer feedback, which has been instrumental in the successful return of V8 engines and the upcoming Jeep Cherokee. The company is also focusing on expanding its financial services in North America and navigating complex tariff landscapes. In Europe, Stellantis is ramping up production on two new platforms, SmartCar and STLA Medium, to launch competitive EVs and traditional powertrains, aiming to address regulatory pressures and declining market share. The collaboration with Leapmotor is highlighted as a significant strategy for growth in Europe and other regions, with plans for joint production and technology exchange. Filosa also addressed past issues with PureTech engines, assuring that lessons learned are being applied to improve quality and customer confidence, particularly with the new 1.6L engine for the North American market.
