Stellantis, formed at the beginning of 2021 through the merger of Fiat Chrysler and Peugeot maker PSA, sold around 6 million vehicles last year.

It has plans to move all its future products onto four new BEV platforms, STLA Small, Medium, Large and Frame, starting with STLA Medium from Europe this year.

“STLA Medium is intended to be manufactured in many countries: France, Italy, Germany and then in North America in different locations,” CEO Carlos Tavares said, adding further locations could added at later stage.

“This enables Stellantis brands to tailor vehicle capabilities for the ideal balance of cost and performance,” it said.
