According to the ACEA, Stellantis’ European market share, including the EU, EFTA, and UK, plummeted from 18% in January 2024 (and 17% for 2024 overall) to 15.5% in January 2025. Quite a bit of that drop went straight to Volkswagen, which rose from a 25% to a 27% share.
Overall, electric cars rose to a 15% market share, but Stellantis has just a 13% share of that 15% though its market share is increasing. The Fiat 500e was the best selling BEV passenger car in Germany. The company’s share of BEV commercial vans was much higher, at 31%—slightly better than its share of gasoline powered commercial vans. One might have expected Stellantis EVs to take more of a bit of Tesla’s sales, given that the American EV company’s sales dropped by 45% for the month, but those sales apparently went elsewhere.
Peugeot maintained its 5.6% share from January 2024 to January 2025; Opel took a hit, dropping from 3.9% to 2.9%, and Citroën fell from 3.2% to 2.7%. Fiat/Abarth took the same hit, from 2.9% to 2.4%.
Jeep slipped slightly, falling from 1.2% to 1.1%, losing around 1,200 sales for the month to land at 10,984. Alfa Romeo gained by a tenth of a percentage point in share, gaining around 900 sales, landing at 4,792 for the month. DS fell in half, landing at 2,191. Lancia, also sold as Chrysler, dropped from 0.4 to 0.1%, landing at 1,052, and all others—Dodge, Maserati, and Ram—had 388 sales.
Renault gained by 0.7 points, landing at 9.8%; Hyundai dropped a bit to 8.4%; and Toyota fell to 8.1%. Tesla fell from a 1.8% to a 1.0% share, with its sales falling by 45% to land at 9,945, which is slightly behind Jeep in Europe but still double Alfa Romeo’s figures. It was enough to put Tesla behind Suzuki, Jaguar Land Rover, Volvo, and Mazda.
For all the talk about cheap Chinese EVs taking over Europe, the only Chinese automaker on the charts was SAIC, and they only had a 2.3% share, with 22,994 sales for the month. That put them behind BMW, Mercedes, Ford, Volvo, and Nissan.
