Boy, Stellantis Gets A New Spartan Leader: Filosa Takes The Wheel!

The Old CEO is Dead Long Live The New CEO!

Hmph. Stellantis has named some Italian named Filosa as their new leader. Carlos Tavares the previous one is gone. Vanished like the hopes of men facing Zeus. Apparently profits and sales went down and now they seek a new path. 'It is my great honor,' he says. Honor means nothing if the coffers are empty boy.

Forging New Alliances: A Task Fit for a God!

Filosa speaks of 'strengthening bonds.' He must mend the rifts Tavares left behind. Dealers suppliers unions... they are all vital like the components of a well forged weapon. He served as Jeep brand CEO before becoming North America COO in October 2024 and chief quality officer in January this year. If he fails to unite them Stellantis will crumble like Olympus under the wrath of Kratos.

Internal Combustion vs. Electric Thunder: A Choice of Gods!

The fool must also balance the old ways with the new. Internal combustion engines versus electric vehicles. He cannot cling to the past nor blindly rush into the future. A true leader forges his own path blending strength and innovation. Lest he be consumed by the flames of technological war.

The Ghost of Trade Tariffs: Trump's Fury Lingers!

Ah the meddling of politicians! They speak of tariffs of trade wars. 'Uncertainties regarding the impact of U.S. President Donald Trump's back and forth trade policy,' they whine. Such pathetic excuses! A true leader bends the world to his will not the other way around. But these tariffs... they threaten to unravel the supply chains leaving Stellantis vulnerable. Bah!

From Fiat's Loins: A Family Legacy!

John Elkann some scion of the Agnelli family will remain as chairman. These families cling to power like barnacles on a ship's hull. "Antonio's deep understanding of our Company... equips him perfectly," Elkann claims. Empty words. Only time will reveal if Filosa is worthy of this trust.

A Dealer Speaks: The True Test Begins!

Some dealer named Bettenhausen speaks of 'heavy lifting' and 'new products.' He seeks improvement in U.S. sales. The true test lies not in boardrooms and memos but in the arena of the marketplace. Can Filosa deliver? Or will Stellantis face a fate worse than Tartarus? Time will tell boy. Time will tell.
