Peugeot will not be returning to the United States, Stellantis number one Carlos Tavares confirmed at CES in Las Vegas, clubalfa.it reports.
Last year, the rumor had spread that the Peugeot brand with the birth of the Stellantis group could make a comeback in the American car market which it had lacked for several decades.
In fact, Tavares at CES 2022 in Las Vegas confirmed to the American press that for the moment the return of the Peugeot brand to the United States is not scheduled. Stellantis has a strong presence in the United States through its historic brands Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Ram. Given the company’s strong presence in the US market, CEO Carlos Tavares sees no need to add Peugeot to the list.
As for Alfa Romeo, the first manager of the Italian brand Jean-Philippe Imparato has confirmed that the Alfa Romeo Tonale will join Giulia and Stelvio in the United States, two models, whose sales figures have been declining for several years in this country. .
In addition, the CEO of Stellantis also indicated that his group will relaunch the two American brands Chrysler and Dodge. In this regard, Stellantis plans to consolidate its reputation as a high performance brand by launching high performance electrified vehicles to enthusiasts. As for Chrysler, the brand will be relaunched with the arrival of new models, so its range will be fully electrified by 2028.
