Taking on new challenges has always been my driving force throughout my 35-year career in the automotive industry. Joining Stellantis is in a way a return to my roots, with particularly exciting opportunities ahead. We’re at a technological and societal turning point in our relationship with the automobile, and the PEUGEOT brand, through its creativity and innovation, is for me a major player in this evolution.”

Jean-Philippe Imparato, Stellantis Enlarged Europe COO, said: “Linda is one of the emblematic figures within Stellantis. Her determination, leadership, taste for innovation and great professionalism have enabled a remarkable repositioning of the PEUGEOT brand in France and internationally, with in particular a distinctive range that has been completely renewed and is 100% electric. I would like to thank Linda for her years of commitment to Stellantis and for the major role she has played in the success of our electrification strategy.”
