Stellantis is securing an 18% market share across EU29 countries as of August. Ranking second among competitors, the company’s growth has been bolstered by stellar performances from its Citroën, Dodge, and Jeep brands.
France stands out with Stellantis capturing a 30% year-to-date market share, led by top-selling models like the Peugeot 208, 308, 2008, and Citroën C3. Italy remains a key player, with the brand commanding over 32% of the market, featuring standout models such as the Fiat Panda, Lancia Ypsilon, and Jeep Avenger. The Avenger has rapidly climbed the ranks, establishing itself as Italy’s best-selling SUV.
Germany, too, saw impressive growth, where Stellantis’ market share surged to 14% thanks to a 13% sales boost. The Opel Astra performed exceptionally well, moving more than 4,300 units in August, placing it among the leading C-segment vehicles. Beyond these key markets, significant sales gains were reported in Bulgaria, Croatia, and Ireland.
On the commercial vehicle front, Stellantis Pro One bolstered its leadership with a nearly 29% market share and a year-over-year volume growth of 1.4%. Germany experienced a 29.5% increase in sales, coupled with a 3.3 percentage point rise in market share. The Netherlands, Spain, and Portugal also posted substantial gains, while Austria retained its position as the CV market leader.
Uwe Hochgeschurtz, Chief Operating Officer of Stellantis Enlarged Europe, noted the company’s continued momentum across the region. “Our employees’ and partners’ resilience, coupled with the arrival of exciting new multi-energy products, including those from Leapmotor launching this month, ensures we will continue to compete for the top spot,” Hochgeschurtz remarked.
Stellantis’ progress in the low-emission vehicle sector is also notable. BEVs claimed a 13% year-to-date share in EU29. Peugeot E-208 emerged as the top-selling EV in France, with nearly 40% growth in sales for the first eight months. Italy’s electric market also saw Stellantis take over 9%, while Vauxhall dominated the electric van segment in the UK.
Additionally, Stellantis’ Pre-Owned Vehicle division experienced a remarkable 30% growth over the last eight months, with markets like France, Germany, Italy, and Spain registering strong double-digit sales increases, cementing the company’s robust presence across Europe’s new and used vehicle markets.
