Stellantis CEO suggestions Canada as potential location for electric vehicle battery factory
Stellantis NV, the automotive giant formed through the merger of Fiat Chrysler and the PSA Group of France, has announced plans to invest $44.5 billion in low-emission cars, part of which will be used to build their own battery plants.
According to recent reports, two of the battery plants will be located in North America, and three in Europe. The locations for these plants are yet to be confirmed, but rumors suggest they will be in Germany, France, and Italy. In North America, one of the plants may be in Canada, with the possibility of two, and the other in the United States.
Stellantis NV has been in the early stages of meetings with the Government of Canada regarding the potential location of the new battery plant in Canada. However, no specific location has been discussed yet. It is uncertain whether the provincial or federal government will be able to attract Stellantis to Ontario or Quebec for the location of the new battery plant.
The new battery plant will be one of the two North American plants being built by Stellantis NV. Interestingly, the company has planned the location for one of its first new electric vehicle battery factories in North America in Windsor, Ontario, Canada.
These battery plants will play a crucial role in Stellantis NV's commitment to low-emission cars. The company operates three Canadian-based plants in Windsor, Toronto, and Brampton, producing thousands of vehicles per year under the brands Jeep, Peugeot, Dodge, Fiat, and Chrysler.
While details of conversations or any leaks of potential sweeteners by the various levels of government have not hit the media, it is clear that Stellantis NV is seriously considering a location for a new electric vehicle battery plant in Canada.
As the world moves towards a more sustainable future, Stellantis NV's investment in low-emission cars and battery plants is a significant step forward. The exact locations for these plants will be announced in due course, and we await further updates with anticipation.
