Stellantis has announced an investment of over $2 billion in Italy by 2025, benefiting brands such as Jeep, Fiat, Alfa Romeo, Lancia, and DS. The investment includes factory modernization and the development of new models, focusing on hybrid and electric vehicles.

Highlights include the transformation of the Maserati plant in Modena into a hub for luxury and sports vehicles, the launch of new electric vans in Atessa by 2027, and the production of a hybrid Fiat 500 in Mirafiori, with operations secured until 2033.

The new STLA Small platform will play a key role in Stellantis’ plans, aiming to replace the current e-CMP/CPM and pave the way for compact hybrid and electric models. The Pomigliano D’Arco factory will become the hub for two new models starting in 2028. In Melfi, hybrid and electric versions of the new Jeep Compass, Lancia Gamma, DS 7, and DS 8 are planned, with the Compass expected to arrive in Brazil by 2026.

Alfa Romeo will also take center stage, with three new large models planned for the Cassino plant. The next generation of the Stelvio will debut in 2025, followed by the Giulia sedan’s replacement in 2026, both featuring hybrid and electric options.

The brand is also keeping another new model under wraps, further emphasizing its commitment to a sustainable and competitive future.
