Overview
- Stellantis executive Jean‑Philippe Imparato said the 2030 and 2035 CO2 goals are unattainable without a roughly 30% market slump and confirmed that 100% electrification by 2030 is no longer feasible under the group’s plan.
- CEO Antonio Filosa met Italy’s industry minister Adolfo Urso, with a joint intent to press Brussels for technological neutrality and CO2 flexibility, focusing on light commercial vehicles and a revived small‑car segment.
- Ursula von der Leyen told Parliament that the future is electric and said the Commission is preparing a technical review of the 2035 rule while proposing a new initiative for small, affordable European e‑cars.
- More than 150 companies across the electric‑mobility value chain urged the Commission not to roll back the 2035 zero‑emission sales objective in an open letter.
- Labor pressure intensified in Italy as metalworkers’ unions sought an urgent meeting with Filosa over factory conditions, and a new italo‑Chinese group submitted a non‑binding plan to convert Lear’s Grugliasco site to microcar assembly for about 250 workers.
