Stellantis has announced a historic $13 billion investment in the United States over the next four years to expand its manufacturing footprint and product offerings, marking the largest single investment in the company’s 100-year U.S. history. This ambitious plan includes launching five new vehicles, adding more than 5,000 new jobs across plants in Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, and Indiana, and reopening the Belvidere, Illinois plant to produce two new Jeep models[1][3].

Despite the sizeable overall investment, Stellantis’s electric vehicle (EV) focus within this U.S. growth strategy remains relatively limited but targeted. The company plans to invest approximately $406 million in three Michigan facilities to support a “multi-energy” strategy that balances internal combustion engines (ICE), battery electric vehicles (BEVs), and plug-in hybrids (PHEVs). Key projects include preparing the Sterling Heights Assembly Plant to produce the Ram 1500 REV, the company’s first all-electric Ram light-duty truck launching in late 2024, and setting up the Warren Truck Plant for the future electric Jeep Wagoneer arriving by the end of 2025[5][6].

Additionally, Stellantis will invest $155 million in Kokomo, Indiana, across three factories to manufacture new Electric Drive Modules (EDM). These modules integrate electric motors, power electronics, and transmission in a single unit to power upcoming BEVs based on the STLA Large and STLA Frame platforms, aiming to achieve up to 500 miles of driving range. The EDM production supports Stellantis’s goal of reaching 50% battery electric vehicle sales in the U.S. by 2030, aligned with its global “Dare Forward 2030” commitment to decarbonization[2][6].

The $13 billion investment also includes substantial upgrades for ICE and new four-cylinder engines to be produced in Toledo, Ohio, and Detroit, Michigan, reflecting Stellantis’s continued emphasis on traditional powertrains alongside electrification. The company’s approach is described as a "multi-energy" strategy, preparing for diverse market demands and transition scenarios rather than an exclusive focus on EVs. Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares highlighted that while Europe is aggressively transitioning toward electrification, the U.S. market requires a flexible approach that includes ICE, hybrid, and electric technologies to meet customer needs effectively[3][5].

In summary, Stellantis’s $13 billion U.S. investment represents a significant expansion with moderate EV emphasis. The company is advancing electric vehicle technologies and production capabilities but maintains a balanced portfolio, supporting new electric models while continuing to invest heavily in ICE and hybrid vehicles. This strategic posture reflects Stellantis’s pragmatic response to the evolving American automotive market and regulatory environment[1][2][3][5][6].
