Here is the letter that Antonio Filosa, the newly appointed CEO of Stellantis, sent to the group's employees after his appointment.

Dear Stellantis colleagues,

It is a great honour for me to have been appointed Chief Executive Officer. I consider it a privilege because - together - we will start a new, exciting chapter in the history of our company.

As many of you know, I have spent the last 25 years working in our regions in different functions in our brands in Europe, South America and North America. I started as a quality supervisor in the paint shop of a plant in Spain, where I worked nights. Since that first job, I have always been inspired by the immense talent, passion and commitment of our people and the professionalism with which our teams enable us to achieve excellence.

I have this company in my blood and I could not be more proud of the opportunity I have been given to work with all of you, in every region, taking on this role, at your service, for Stellantis.

We have the best and most iconic brands in automotive history and a tradition of innovation stretching back over 100 years. This history, combined with our commitment to providing our customers with the products and services they love, is the key to our success. Likewise, further strengthening the bonds and trust we have with our partners - the dealers, suppliers, unions and communities where we work - is essential and will be something I will focus on in my new role.

I assume with great humility the enormous responsibility that the role of CEO entails. I am grateful to our Chairman, John Elkann, and to the members of the Board of Directors for their guidance, particularly in recent months, and for the trust they have placed in me to lead our Company at this crucial time for the entire industry.

In the coming days and weeks I will be visiting our plants and offices around the world, and I will be happy to meet and listen to many of you in person. I have always drawn strength from relating and working closely with colleagues. Now, this closeness will be more important than ever. I can't wait to start working together and then appreciate the successes this collaboration will bring in the future.

With gratitude, humility and enthusiasm for our common future.

Antonio
