Under the Dare Forward 2030 plan, 50 percent of the US lineup will be electric.
Stellantis today announced an ambitious plan called Dare Forward 2030. It, like its name, envisions extensive electrification by the end 2030. This initiative also includes meeting all financial goals and promises of exceptional customer satisfaction. However, electricity and carbon neutrality are the core of it. Stellantis claims that 100 percent of European vehicle sales will be electric by 2030. The target for the United States is 50 percent. Stellantis plans to build 75 more battery-electric vehicles (BEVs) in order to reach this goal. The company has global sales of 5 million BEVs annually before the decade is out. The company is pushing even further into the future by setting a goal to be carbon-neutral by 2038, with a benchmark of 50 percent for 2030.
Carlos Tavares, CEO of Stellantis, stated that “Dare Forward 2030 is an inspiration to us to be so much more than ever before.” We are expanding our vision and breaking down the boundaries. This new mindset seeks to improve all aspects of mobility for the benefit of our families, communities and societies. Some teasers were shown, including two vehicles that are not very carbon-friendly. The first all electric Jeep was shown front to back. It features styling and proportions that are similar to the Compass. It will be a small crossover, and it is expected to go on sale in 2023. These teaser images of the upcoming electric Ram 1500 pickup truck aren’t as detailed but give an idea of the exterior design. It will go on sale in 2024. Dare Forward 2030 seems like an ambitious plan, considering the number of brands that fall under the Stellantis umbrella. It’s worth noting that the press release states that passenger car EEV sales mix in Europe will be 100 percent, while 50 percent passenger vehicles and light-duty trucks will be in the United States. This language does not include commercial vehicles from either region. In the United States, however, this would exclude large medium-duty or heavy-duty pickup trucks like the RAM 3500.
