CEO Carlos Tavares is leading the company into “disaster.” Calling the letter a “public personal attack,” Stellantis said dealers should have these kinds of conversations behind closed doors. The automaker also defended its strategy — sales were up 20% MoM in Aug. Meanwhile, dealers claim these same policies have caused market share losses, layoffs, and a falling stock price. Bottom line: Tensions between dealers and OEMs are nothing new, but rarely are they so public. As dealers struggle to keep the faith — the automaker’s uphill battle just got steeper… Read today’s full car market analysis, presented by Edmunds: https://lnkd.in/gjJzwD6M (Data source: Reuters)

#Stellantis has made many missteps towards #EV competitiveness. However, recently they are showing signs that they are serious. They are establishing themselves as a potentially viable EV competitor. The verdict is still not out yet as they are not yet showing commitment to EV-exclusive platforms and software/UX commitment/understanding. They will never compete with the #Chinese, until they do this. "By using a low-cost #LFP battery and reducing customer choice, the Stellantis subsidiary made its e-C3 the lowest cost battery-powered model built and sold in #Europe." https://lnkd.in/gmjX3mxq
