Stellantis has announced that Pablo Di Si will assume leadership of operations in North America and its American brands with immediate effect. In this new role, Di Si becomes a member of the Stellantis Leadership Team and will report directly to CEO Antonio Filosa. This appointment marks a transition where Di Si takes over regional responsibilities from Filosa, who had been supervising the area concurrently with his position as global chief executive.

During the period under Filosa's direct supervision, the North American team achieved notable improvements in production efficiency and quality. The region also implemented stricter inventory management, restored customer choice, and revitalized market momentum. CEO Antonio Filosa emphasized that North America is critical to Stellantis's success and the execution of its FaSTLAne 2030 strategy. He noted that while significant progress has been made, important opportunities remain ahead.

Filosa described Di Si as a proven leader with deep knowledge of the North American market and the company's operations, expressing strong confidence in his ability to drive results alongside the regional team. Di Si brings more than 25 years of experience across finance, business development, strategy, and operations. His background includes leading Volkswagen activities in both North and South America, holding various leadership positions at Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA), and recently serving as Stellantis Chief Performance Officer.

In his previous role as Chief Performance Officer, Di Si collaborated with global teams to enhance the company's competitiveness through the Value Creation Program. Looking forward, he stated that the team will build on a solid foundation by leveraging strong execution capabilities and keeping customers at the center of actions in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Di Si expressed his eagerness to work closely with employees, dealers, suppliers, labor unions, and commercial partners to accelerate the current trajectory and grow the business in North America.
