Stellantis Warns of Possible Factory Closures Due to EU Emission ...

  • Stellantis warned on July 4, 2025, that it may have to close factories in Europe due to risks of EU fines for missing emission targets between 2025 and 2027.
  • The risk arises because EU rules require e-vans to reach 13 percent of the fleet by 2025, and Stellantis currently has only nine percent, limiting compliance options.
  • The head of Stellantis' European operations indicated that the company must either substantially boost sales of electric vehicles or reduce the manufacturing of petrol and diesel models.
  • Imparato emphasized that without changes to regulations, the company must either aggressively increase electric vehicle production or reduce the output of petrol and diesel models, which would lead to factory shutdowns.
  • The company risks facing multibillion-euro penalties, potentially as high as 2.6 billion euros , if it does not meet electric vehicle sales targets, which could squeeze profit margins and might result in factory shutdowns unless regulations are adjusted.
