The strategy of the future Stellantis group is taking shape
The plan to merge the PSA and FCA groups is on track. It should become reality in a few weeks, because the European Commission seems to want to give its agreement for the achievement of this merger of the two groups. In the meantime, the strategy of the future Stellantis group is becoming clearer:
1 / FCA would have committed to the production and marketing of future models on the basis of PSA platforms (CMP on A / B segments, EMP2 on C / D segments, EVMP for electrics in C / D segments).
2 / The future group should only use 4 main platforms in addition to utility vehicles (including Ram pick-ups), namely CMP, EMP2, EVMP platforms and a platform from FCA dedicated to large models.
3 / The Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger and Dodge Challenger will therefore be renewed, while the old FCA plan condemned these three models. Likewise, the Lancia brand would no longer be abandoned. The Ypsilon model would be renewed on a CMP platform.
4 / The two manufacturers are said to have undertaken to rationalize their catalog of commercial vehicles. The future Fiat Doblo would thus take over the bodywork of the Citroën Berlingo, Peugeot Partner and Opel Combo. The Fiorino would be abandoned. The Talento would take over the bodywork of the Citroën Jumpy, Peugeot Expert and Opel Vivaro.
5 / The acquisition of JLR (mentioned several times) would be carefully studied, even if it is not a priority for the Stellantis group.
It would nonetheless make it possible to have two Premium brands with strong sales potential and known internationally.
