Stellantis Q2 2026 profit surge driven by North America growth FAST-MOVING
Stellantis reported a strong second‑quarter 2026 performance. Net revenue rose 13 % year‑on‑year to €43.5 billion, while adjusted operating income more than tripled to €773 million. Industrial free‑cash flow reached €1 billion. The growth was powered by a 32 % increase in North America sales, adding 122,000 units and accounting for 81 % of total shipment growth; Europe recorded flat sales. CEO Antonio Filosa said the turnaround plan, a $70 billion “FaSTLAne 2030” strategy, earmarks roughly $42 billion for products and branding, about 60 % of which will be invested in North America.
The company also highlighted product initiatives under the plan. Dodge’s SRT brand previewed the Copperhead halo sports car, which Tim Kuniskis confirmed is not based on the Charger platform. Separate teaser videos suggest a revival of the historic Super Bee badge on the latest Charger model. Ram announced the 2027 Rumble Bee pickup line, with pricing starting at $62,790 for the base V8 version and a high‑performance SRT version producing 777 hp. Stellantis also disclosed the sale of its Free2move car‑sharing business to German fund Mutares, aligning with the strategy to focus on core automotive operations.
