Stellantis NV, one of the world’s largest mobility companies that invests in all areas of mobility, announced its estimated consolidated shipments for the first quarter of 2026. The company’s shipment data, which expresses the volume of vehicles delivered to dealers, distributors or directly to retail and fleet customers, is among the key factors that determine its revenue record. In this context, the company announced its consolidated shipment forecast as approximately 1.4 million units for the three-month period ending on March 31, 2026. This figure indicates a 12 percent increase on an annual basis. While this increase mainly stems from the Greater Europe and North America regions; Annual shipment growth in the Middle East & Africa and South America also supports this performance.
The growth momentum in America continues!
North America: Stellantis‘ shipments in North America in the first quarter of 2026 increased by approximately 54 thousand units compared to the same period in 2025, increasing 17 percent on an annual basis. This development reveals that the company’s momentum in the region is increasing. Shipments of the Ram 1500 (light commercial) HEMI® V8, refreshed Jeep Grand Wagoneer and all-new Jeep® Cherokee models accounted for more than 100 percent of annual growth; It was observed that the decrease in Jeep® Compass shipments due to the commissioning of the Jeep® Cherokee, also produced at the Toluca facility, partially offset this increase.
Extended Europe: In the region, first quarter shipments increased by approximately 69 thousand units, up 12 percent year-on-year. While light commercial vehicle (LCV) volumes remain stable at approximately 135 thousand units, the increase in passenger vehicle volume is due to new model launches. Shipments of Fiat, Opel/Vauxhall and Citroën brands; While supported by the performance of the models belonging to the Smart Car platform (Citroën C3, C3 Aircross, Opel/Vauxhall Frontera, Fiat Grande Panda), these models recorded an annual growth of 85 percent with an increase of approximately 48 thousand units. Leapmotor branded vehicles also gained commercial momentum and increased their shipments by approximately 22 thousand units, reaching approximately 27 thousand units in total. This growth is supported by the success of the T03 model in the entry-segment BEV market in Europe, particularly in Italy.
Sales in Türkiye became the driving force of the region!
Middle East & Africa: Stellantis increased its shipments in the Middle East & Africa region by approximately 11 thousand units, achieving 11 percent growth on an annual basis. The main driving force of this increase was Türkiye, with a contribution of approximately 12 thousand units. This strong performance; It reflects the normalization of stock dynamics and the improvement of commercial performance, especially with the introduction of new Citroën and Opel Smart Car models. Algeria also made a positive contribution with the increase in local production. On the other hand, shipments in the Gulf Cooperation Council countries decreased by more than half to approximately 3 thousand units.
South America: In South America, shipments rose 4 percent year-on-year, increasing by approximately 8,000 units. It is noteworthy that this growth originates from Brazil, where shipments increased by approximately 17 thousand units (an 11 percent annual increase), reflecting the improving market trend. However, due to the contraction in the sector and the pressure created by new Chinese players, shipments in Argentina decreased by approximately 8 thousand units (a decrease of 19 percent), partially offsetting this increase. Stellantis continues to maintain its leadership both in regional shipments and in its main markets, Brazil and Argentina.
