Tavares Says Stellantis Must “Be Chinese Ourselves” To Win The EV Market

Stellantis acquired a 21% stake in Chinese carmaker Leapmotor to access its EV technology. Carlos Tavares believes adopting a low-cost mindset is essential for competing with Chinese EVs. By 2030, Stellantis aims to achieve 100% electric vehicle sales in Europe and 50% in the US. Stellantis chief executive Carlos Tavares believes the best way to compete with electric vehicles emerging out of China is to adopt the same low-cost mindset and look for ways to build EVs for less.

The deal was done in October last year and gives the European brand access to Leapmotor’s technology as well as the exclusive rights to produce its EVs outside of China. It already started production at its plant in Tychy, Poland, and Tavares has said Stellantis could even build Leapmotor EVs in North America. Stellantis isn’t the only Western conglomerate to partner with a Chinese carmaker.
