Stellantis estimates growing deliveries

In North America, deliveries increase by about 54,000 units (+17% year-on-year), driven by a strengthening of the region’s commercial momentum. According to Stellantis, growth was supported by volumes of some key models. Among these are the Ram 1500 light-duty with Hemi V8, the Jeep Grand Wagoneer update, and the new Jeep Cherokee. At the same time, part of the increase is partially offset by a decline in Jeep Compass deliveries, linked to the increased production of the Jeep Cherokee, also made at the Toluca plant.

From North America to broader Europe

Broader Europe also records a significant progress, with first-quarter deliveries up by about 69,000 units (+12% year-on-year). Light commercial vehicle volumes remain stable at 135,000 units. The positive trend of passenger cars is linked to new launches and the performance of models on the Smart Car platform (including Citroen C3 and C3 Aircross, Opel/Vauxhall Frontera, and Fiat Grande Panda), which grew by about 48,000 units (+85% year-on-year). In the Middle East & Africa, deliveries rise by 11,000 units (+11% year-on-year), mainly thanks to Turkey. In South America, finally, they increase by about 8,000 units (+4%), with a positive contribution from Brazil and a decline in Argentina linked to the sector and pressure from new Chinese operators.
