The crising Opel mother group Stellantis had to deal with significant sales problems in the first quarter.

In the three months to the end of March, the number of vehicles delivered to dealers, fleet and private customers decreased by nine percent to 1.2 million units compared to the same period in the previous year, the Volkswagen Rival said in Amsterdam on Friday. In the second most important market in North America, things were particularly bad with a fifth in the paragraph.

Stellantis justified this, among other things, with calendar effects, such as an extended holiday season that was slowed down. At the same time, the group pointed out that the orders of private customers in the North America region were as good in March as it has not been since July 2023.

Even in the most important sales region of Europe, it was not particularly round with a minus of eight percent. This is where Stellantis puts almost half of all vehicles. In regions such as Middle East, Africa and China, Stellantis also recorded double -digit declines in percentage. Only in South America did the group create an increase of 19 percent. It is the third most important sales region.

At the Euronext in Milan, the Stellantis share temporarily loses 5.28 percent to 7.55 euros.
