Stellantis Forecasts 1.6 Million Global Deliveries in Q2 2026, Boosted by Leapmotor Models in Europe

Stellantis Group expects global shipments of 1.6 million vehicles for the second quarter ending June 30, 2026, representing a 10% year-over-year increase. This growth is primarily driven by strong performance in North America and Europe. In North America, shipments rose by approximately 122,000 units, or 38% year-over-year. The increase was fueled by higher sales of new or refreshed models, including the Ram 1500 HEMI® V8, the new Ram 1500 TRX SRT, updated Jeep Grand Wagoneer and Grand Cherokee models, the refreshed Chrysler Pacifica, and the all-new Jeep Cherokee and Dodge Charger SIXPACK (available in both two-door and four-door variants). This figure also includes preparations for summer production shutdowns. In Europe, shipments increased by about 39,000 units, or 5% year-over-year. Of this, approximately 41,000 incremental units came from Stellantis brands’ new models based on the Smart Car platform—including the Citroën C3, C3 Aircross, Opel/Vauxhall Frontera, and Fiat Grande Panda—marking a 51% year-over-year surge. Additionally, the all-new Jeep Compass contributed roughly 8,000 units of growth in the C-segment SUV category. However, shipments of legacy B-segment SUVs—including the Jeep Avenger, Fiat 600, Opel Mokka, and Peugeot 2008—declined by around 28,000 units, partially offsetting the overall gains. Furthermore, Leapmotor-branded vehicles achieved European shipments of 33,000 units, up by 25,000 units year-over-year, primarily driven by demand for the T03 and B10 models. Shipments in the Middle East and Africa decreased by approximately 4,000 units, or 3% year-over-year, while South American shipments declined by about 7,000 units, also down 3% year-over-year. Shipments in the Asia-Pacific region remained stable at 16,000 units, unchanged from the same period last year.
