The best-selling models on the continent are the Peugeot 208 and 2008.
Stellantis has had a fantastic start since its official launch earlier in the year. According to the number of cars sold in the first two months of this year, the newly founded manufacturer is the largest European automaker. This means that it is beating Volkswagen Group.
According to European Automobile Manufacturers Association (ACEA), Stellantis delivered a total number of 480,888 passenger vehicles and light commercial vehicles across the 30 European countries it tracks. Stellantis has an advantage of approximately 28,500 vehicles sold between January 2021 and February 2021, as Volkswagen Group has moved 452,400 vehicles across all its brands.
Important to remember that VAG remains the top-selling passenger car manufacturer. It has 419,855 passenger car sales and is ahead of Stellantis with 377,244 sold during the same period. Stellantis’ 103 644 light-commercial vehicles, which totalled 103,644, were sufficient to offset the lower passenger car sales.

With 3.23 million LCV and passenger sales in 2020, Volkswagen Group dominated its competition. With the launch of Stellantis, an automaker, it appears that 2021 will be a better year than just PSA and FCA combined.
Stellantis could see increased sales as a sign that there are positive changes happening despite recent rather strange cost-cutting measures. As early as 2023, large synergies will be in effect when various brands of the automaker are expected unify their production and make further savings.
