    DARE FORWARD 2030 Long Term Strategic Plan EV's and the Jeep EV Reveal

      Today March 1st, 2022, Stellantis unveiled their detailed Dare Forward 2030 strategic plane for this decade that will drive their employee's as valued stakeholders in the company's future as well as Stellantis fight as an industry champion against climate change and their goal to reach net zero emissions by 2038, 2 years ahead of the overall industries focus on 2040 for zero emissions.

    Today Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares asked people to join him in embracing a new mindset. Expand one's vision, breaking the limits and seek to transform all facets of one's mobility for the betterment of families, communities and the overall society in which we live and operate.

    Stellantis will be an industry champion in climate change mitigation with a reduction of carbon create by 50% by 2030 and becoming net zero carbon emission by 2038. Leadership at Stellantis have committed to having 100% of European sales and 50% of United State sales to be battery electric vehicles (BEVs) by 2030. This will be done by having more than 75 BEVs and global annual BEV sales of 5 million vehicles by 2030.

    The start of DARE FORWARD 2030 is to introduce the Jeep brand's first-ever fully electric SUV.

    This fully electric Jeep will be launched early 2023, expanding the brands reach globally and taking the next step of achieving the Jeep brand's vision of Zero Emission Freedom. More information on this Jeep BEV will be released in the coming months.

    Stellantis is proud to preview the new RAM 1500 BEV pickup arriving for sale 2024.

    Fueled by innovation and engineering excellence with the latest in technology, the RAM lineup will offer from the most affordable BEV pickup to the high-performance and luxury. An extensive product portfolio of incredible options to meet the customer's needs.

    Stellantis aim is to be #1 in customer satisfaction for our products and services bringing exceptional solutions to retail to professional customers. To achieve this, it starts with having exceptional people per their video:

     

    Operational excellence, speed of execution and a breakeven point of less than 50% of shipments will remain their hallmark. Stellantis plans to double net revenues by 2030 and sustain double-digit adjusted operating income margins through 2030.

    Dare Forward 2030 Key Facts 

    Here is how Stellantis sees their iconic house brands and pricing:

    Stellantis plans to grow their premium and luxury brands from current revenues and profits to be 100% BEV sales with 4x revenues and 5x profits of today.

    This will be accomplished by an aggressive roll out of the BEV Portfolio:

    The U.S. market will see an aggressive full speed BEV roll out of products that cover 25+ models between 2024 and 2030, a six-year period seeing 4 models and in some cases more per year.

    Stellantis has made it very clear that their global carbon footprint will change immensely to help mitigate climate change.

    One area that many say is not sustainable is that due to BEVs being much less maintenance is the lost jobs by moving away from ICE. Stellantis as does many OEM auto companies see new job creation and retraining that embraces new jobs. The great circular economy: from cradle-to-cradle is how Stellantis sees the future.

    Every customer count, every journey matters is how Stellantis is seeing the long-term journey to embrace customers for life.

    Tech is the future as we have a revolutionary shift in the way vehicles are built, serviced and updated. As such electrification and beyond will bring in software, AI, future autonomous driving and more to the auto of the future. Here we have the following for EV commitments:

    One part of Stellantis plan is that Hydrogen does play an important part in this mix, as such commercial side will have hydrogen generated electric vans and eventually HD trucks in addition to pure last mile delivery/work vans that are pure BEV.

    Here we have software as a core to the global Stellantis auto family and as a core focus the following:

    While automated self-driving, data as a service, fleet services and the venture fund are additional areas covered by the DARE FORWARD 2030 plane, the focus of this writeup is on the autos themselves. If you wish to look at these areas, click on the following link: 2030 STRATEGIC PLAN DESIGN (stellantis.com)

    Stellantis also covered the value the global brands would bring to the table via e-commerce, holistic and digital marketplaces, as this focuses on their 7 accretive businesses:

    • CIRCULAR ECONOMY
    • DATA BUSINESS
    • MOBILITY
    • FINANCIAL SERVICES
    • PRE-OWNED CARS
    • AFTERMARKET
    • COMMERCIAL VEHICLES

    Market share growth across all global regions was also covered in this press release, as were financials and can be viewed at the strategic plan link above or at the bottom of this writeup.

    Stellantis closed out their virtual press event with the following slides:

    Keep in mind that as the auto industry moves forward, technology will be changing at a rapid pace not seen in the ICE auto industry in decades. Part of Stellantis plan is to go beyond where current BEV's are at by starting with Solid-State batteries and their partnership with Factorial.

    The yellow SUV appears to be Compass sized, similar styling.  Neat. 

    Yes, based on watching the live presentation today, they did imply that the first EV would be a compass sized BEV as they go after larger market share with affordable priced BEVs. This yellow Jeep is supposed to be a Global product for them as they did say Jeep is an American, European and Asian market focused BEV.

    While they did not talk about range, the compass sized SUV BEV that is under other Stellantis name plates that are the same size all run 300 miles of range.

    • https://www.howtogeek.com/kia-toyota-honda-reliability-comparison/ Seems Kia has stepped up where they are on par with Toyota and Honda who are seen resting on their Legacy.
    • Ouch, another recall of 400,000 autos by Honda for wheels falling off while driving. https://www.masslive.com/news/2025/11/honda-recalls-400k-vehicles-for-risk-of-wheel-falling-off-while-driving.html
    • How Long Do Electric Car Batteries Last In 2025? - Coltura https://share.google/FTGgsi2XlYf0SmIg4 https://share.google/aimode/J9W5zgcy2aqrJYNZr Recent research confirms that modern electric vehicle (EV) batteries have exceptionally low failure rates and are engineered to last the lifespan of the vehicle itself. For EVs from model years 2016 onward, battery replacement rates due to failure are well under 1%, excluding major recalls.  Key findings from studies by research firms like Recurrent and Geotab, the U.S. EPA, and the Department of Energy include: Low Failure Rate Outside of major, specific recalls for manufacturing defects (which are covered by manufacturers), the overall battery replacement rate for modern EVs (model year 2022 and later) is around 0.3%. Long Lifespan Most new EV batteries are expected to last 15 to 20 years or 200,000 miles before any significant decline in performance would necessitate a replacement, which is longer than the average car lifespan in the U.S.. Minimal Degradation Batteries degrade slowly over time, with an average rate of just 1.8% per year under moderate conditions. This means a 300-mile range EV could still offer about 250 miles of range after a decade. Comprehensive Warranties Federal law requires manufacturers to provide a warranty for at least eight years or 100,000 miles, guaranteeing the battery will maintain a certain percentage (usually 70%) of its original capacity. Many automakers offer even longer coverage.  These findings challenge previous myths about EV battery durability and highlight the significant advancements in battery technology, thermal management systems, and smart software that optimize battery life.  Honda Accord Hybrid has a software glitch that can cause the vehicle to lose power and potentially crash. https://www.foxbusiness.com/lifestyle/honda-recalls-256k-cars-nationwide-over-potentially-dangerous-software-glitch
    • Yes all but the full size are true 400V and according to their Ultium website they are 800V designed but purposefully throttled at 400V due to the current infrastructure not being ready for 800V. The full size is GMs hybrid version that supposedly could be turned on to 800V but a choice was made to go parallel for charging speed due to the larger than normal battery packs. I honestly do not expect GM to actually push out a software update on the full size now that 800V DC fast charging is pretty common all over, more so on the west and east coast than the Midwest.  GM and Fords failure is to not accept that the technology would transform so much faster which is why the Koreans are winning the EV tech battle especially being competitive with the Chinese. Ford CEO even admits that it was a mistake to not go 800V and GM while stating that generation 2 of their EV platform will be 800V across everything and could be higher makes me wonder if they really will push forward with better tech or lumber along rather than lead the industry. While rare, we are already seeing 500V and above chargers coming out installed rather than additional 350V DC chargers. ChargePoint showed off their 500V chargers which I posted the press release about a while back and starting in January they will start updating all the oldest DC ChargePoint chargers with this new speedy unit that also has cut proof cables. Pretty much I feel the industry needs to move to 1000V EV powertrain systems at least if not 1,200V ensuring performance, charging speed, etc. IMHO.
