Third Quarter 2024 Shipments and Revenues
Stellantis Reports Lower Q3 2024 Net Revenues Amid Transitional Period of Product Upgrades and Inventory Reduction; Confirms Full-Year Guidance
- Net revenues of €33.0 billion, down 27% compared to Q3 2023, primarily due to lower shipments and unfavorable mix as well as pricing and foreign exchange impacts
- Consolidated shipments(1) of 1,148 thousand units, were down 279 thousand, or 20% year-over-year. Q3 2024 included production gaps in several models as a global product transition begins, planned North American inventory reductions, and headwinds from a challenging European market environment
- Product blitz remains on track to deliver approximately 20 new models in 2024. Temporary gaps in our line-up are due in part to the transformational upgrade of the product portfolio, which expands market coverage, consolidates platforms, and delivers unique multi-energy flexibility
- Total inventory of 1,330 thousand units at September 30, 2024 was down 129 thousand units year-to-date. The U.S. dealer inventory level, a focus priority, was reduced by over 80 thousand units at October 30, 2024 from June 30, 2024, and is on track to reach our previously communicated 100 thousand unit reduction target in November 30, 2024
- Reception for new products is strong, including orders for more than 50 thousand units for the all-new Citroën C3, approximately 75 thousand units for the all-new Peugeot 3008, and over 200 dealers in place for the European Leapmotor launch
- The Company’s €3 billion buyback program was completed in October (Including €0.9B in Q3), returning a total of €7.7 billion to shareholders in 2024. Consistent capital policy will support early 2025 dividend calibration and buybacks
- The Company reiterates its 2024 financial guidance, which was updated on September 30, 2024
“While Q3 2024 performance is below our potential, I’m pleased with our progress addressing operational issues, in particular U.S. inventories, which have been reduced meaningfully and are on track for year-end targets, as well as stabilization of U.S. market share. In Europe, stringent quality requirements delayed the start of certain high-volume products, but with progress resolving challenges we will soon benefit from the significantly expanded reach our generational new product wave brings to 2025 and beyond.”

The brand also previewed the Tonale MY2025 with new features and a revamped interior.
- Leapmotor made an impressive entrance at the Paris Motor Show with the global debut of the highly anticipated B10 C-SUV, the first model in its B-series built on the advanced LEAP 3.5 architecture.
Technology Push
Stellantis will offer 40 BEV models in Europe this year, the vast majority built on its innovative, flexible multi-energy platforms. These platforms enable Stellantis to meet evolving customer demands, adapting to local and regional needs. The Peugeot E-3008 and E-5008, based on the STLA Medium platform, offer up to 700km of range in the WLTP combined cycle, making them the best-in-class in their segment. In the U.S., Stellantis announced an investment of over $406 million in three Michigan facilities to support multi-energy technology and manufacturing flexibility, allowing for adaptation to various electrification scenarios.
Stellantis has partnered with the French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission (CEA) to develop next-generation battery cells. This collaboration aims to create high-performance, longer-lasting cells with a lower carbon footprint, driving future affordability & sustainability in battery electric vehicles. Stellantis also plans to incorporate Factorial’s solid-state batteries into a demonstration fleet of all-new Dodge Charger Daytona vehicles based on the STLA Large platform by 2026, a key step in bringing solid-state battery technology to mass production.
