Stellantis has suspended or extended production at several sites in Italy and France, citing electronic component shortages and a slowdown in electric vehicle demand, while Renault is temporarily reducing production at several French plants. The group is asking its suppliers for greater visibility on the supply chain and, in parallel, announcing future electric models at Pomigliano and a new Alfa Romeo at Melfi. The stoppages concern in particular Mirafiori, Melfi, Pomigliano, Naples and Turin in Italy, as well as four French sites suspended in October, with effects on employment and production of models such as the Fiat 500 and the Pandina. Coverage of the story extends to Germany, the United States and Brazil, without the provided sub-events detailing facts specific to these markets.
