Stellantis Reports 12% Q1 Sales Decline Despite Bright Spots in Chrysler, Ram, and Fiat

Stellantis Q1 U.S. sales fall 12%, with gains in EVs and select models offset by steep declines in core segments.


Stellantis posted a 12% drop in total U.S. sales for the first quarter of 2025, a stark contrast to gains reported by other major automakers, despite bright spots in EV growth and individual nameplates.

The global automaker, which oversees brands like Jeep, Dodge, Ram, Chrysler, Alfa Romeo, and Fiat, delivered 293,225 vehicles in Q1 2025, down from 333,502 during the same period last year. While retail sales held steady, broad declines across Dodge, Jeep, and Ram models dragged overall performance.

Dodge was hit hardest, with brand-wide sales plunging 49% year over year. The iconic Charger and Challenger models saw declines of 90% and 91% respectively, as the company pivots toward electrification. The all-new Charger Daytona EV accounted for nearly two-thirds of Charger sales but hasn't yet offset the loss of internal combustion models.

Ram, long a cornerstone of Stellantis’ North American portfolio, also saw a drop, with sales falling 26%. While retail sales for the 1500 and Heavy Duty pickups were reportedly strong, total deliveries declined, impacted in part by fleet reductions. The ProMaster van bucked the trend, posting a 148% year-over-year gain.

Jeep sales slipped 10%, though the Compass and Grand Cherokee 4xe offered some bright spots. The Compass rose 15% in total volume, and electrified models like the Wrangler 4xe accounted for over a quarter of nameplate sales.

Chrysler and Fiat provided rare positives. Chrysler grew 1% behind an 11% gain in Pacifica sales and surging demand for the Pacifica Hybrid. Fiat soared 239%, fueled by interest in the all-electric 500e and new special editions.

Alfa Romeo, however, continued to struggle, falling 15% despite a modest rise in Tonale sales.

Stellantis executives noted strong EV demand and ongoing product launches as reasons for optimism, even as core combustion segments show signs of contraction.
