Stellantis – the superpower of fourteen different automakers – has announced that by 2030 they only want to sell all-electric cars in Europe. In the US, 50 percent of new sales must be all-electric by then. The pledge was made by Stellantis boss Carlos Tavares and is part of the ‘Dare Forward 2030’ plan.
It’s not a complete surprise. Opel previously said it would make nothing but electric vehicles by 2028 and Abarth would be fully electric by 2024. Alfa Romeo already hinted at it. These plans are unlikely to change. Stellantis now says it will offer “more than 75 electric vehicles” by 2030 and the company aims to sell five million battery cars a year by then.
At the Dare Forward 2030 press conference in Amsterdam, Tavares also announced plans to make Stellantis fully carbon neutral by 2038. By the end of this decade, the environmental impact should already be halved. In any case, Stellantis is working on a series of different platforms that all vehicles will eventually land on – including Dodge’s muscle cars and Ram’s pickups. Our prediction: there will be an electric motor called Hemi (or Hem-E?).
