Stellantis CEO Antonio Filosa has stepped back from managing the company’s North America operations. He has handed day-to-day control of the region to Pablo Di Si, allowing Filosa to concentrate on Stellantis’ global turnaround efforts and the ambitious FaSTLAne 2030 plan.
Leadership Changes Reflect Strategic Shift
The leadership update was announced on November 4 and took immediate effect. Filosa, who previously oversaw North America alongside his CEO role, will now focus on coordinating investment and driving product renewal and industrial restructuring across all markets under the company’s €60 billion FaSTLAne 2030 program.
Di Si, formerly Stellantis Chief Performance Officer, joins the company’s Leadership Team and reports directly to Filosa. He brings over 25 years of experience in finance, strategy, and operations, including significant roles at FCA and Volkswagen in both North and South America.
FaSTLAne 2030 Targets Shape North America Focus
Stellantis aims to boost North American revenue by 25% and achieve an adjusted operating margin between 8% and 10% by 2030. The plan involves launching 11 all-new vehicles and expanding the model lineup with more affordable options — including seven models priced under $40,000 and two priced below $30,000.
Di Si will be responsible for meeting these targets by continuing to improve manufacturing quality and efficiency, managing inventory tightly, and broadening the customer offering. His jurisdiction covers the United States, Canada, and Mexico, where he will work closely with dealers, suppliers, and employee groups.
Finance and Performance Roles Also Realigned
In addition to the shift in regional leadership, Jon Nelson has taken over as head of North American finance, replacing Joao Laranjo. Laranjo remains Stellantis Chief Financial Officer, maintaining a clear separation between regional and global finance roles—similar to the change for Filosa.
Alexandre Sorel now leads Stellantis Financial Services and continues overseeing European financial activities. Meanwhile, Gustavo Soloaga steps up to become Chief Performance Officer, leading the Value Creation Program aimed at cutting €6 billion in annual costs by 2028 compared to 2025 levels.
These changes underscore Stellantis’ structured approach to dividing global and regional responsibilities while pushing forward its FaSTLAne 2030 strategy.
