Tim Kuniskis Returns to Lead Stellantis' Ram Trucks After Leadership Shakeup
Stellantis brings back its former Ram CEO as the automaker restructures leadership following Carlos Tavares' resignation.
- Tim Kuniskis, who retired from Stellantis in May 2024, has been reinstated as CEO of the Ram Trucks brand effective immediately.
- The leadership change follows the unexpected resignation of Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares earlier this month due to declining sales and financial struggles in North America.
- Ram Trucks, one of Stellantis' most profitable brands, has faced significant challenges, including a 24% drop in U.S. sales through the third quarter of 2024.
- Chris Feuell, previously overseeing both Ram and Chrysler, will now lead Chrysler and Alfa Romeo North America, while Alfa Romeo leader Larry Dominique is departing the company.
- Stellantis is operating under an interim executive committee led by Chairman John Elkann as the search for a new CEO continues, with a decision expected by mid-2025.
