New Stellantis CEO Antonio Filosa Announces Leadership Team

New Stellantis CEO Antonio Filosa Announces Leadership Team

On June 23, 2025, Antonio Filosa officially stepped into his new role as Chief Executive Officer of Stellantis N.V. This marks an important milestone not only for the company but for the entire automotive industry, especially here in Canada, where Stellantis continues to play a major role in innovation and job creation.

 

Who Is Antonio Filosa?

Filosa is no stranger to Stellantis. Before becoming CEO, he was already a key player, leading North America and the American Brands division.

 

Antonio Filosa, who currently serves as Stellantis' Chief Operating Officer for the Americas and Chief Quality Officer, will assume CEO powers on June 23, 2025.

 

Now, as CEO, he brings his deep knowledge of the business, a passion for product excellence, and a people-first leadership style to the global stage.

 

ā€œIt is my great privilege to take the lead of Stellantis, a global company with deep regional roots,ā€ said Filosa. ā€œWe have unique strengths in our great people, our iconic brands and our millions of customers.ā€

 

A Fresh, Forward-Looking Leadership Team

Filosa wasted no time in announcing a fresh Stellantis Leadership Team (SLT) that draws from the company’s incredible talent pool around the world.

 

This new leadership structure focuses on placing decision-making closer to the regions Stellantis serves—so product choices reflect local market needs more directly.

 

At Unique Chrysler, this matters because decisions made at Stellantis directly shape the vehicles, features, and services we offer here in Burlington.

 

From Ram trucks and Jeep SUVs to Chrysler minivans, the North American market remains a vital focus under Filosa’s direction.

 

Among the key appointments

  • Doug Ostermann continues as CFO and will now also handle mergers, acquisitions, and joint ventures.
  • Jean-Philippe Imparato leads European operations and now also oversees Maserati.
  • Emanuele Cappellano heads South America and leads Stellantis Pro One, the company’s commercial vehicle division.
  • Ralph Gilles, a familiar name to Chrysler fans, continues to lead global design and will report directly to Filosa.
  • Olivier Francois, known for bold and creative marketing campaigns (remember the Chrysler Super Bowl ads?), will now report directly to the CEO as well.

 

Several others, including leaders in product development, sustainability, manufacturing, and communications, round out a well-rounded and experienced global team.

 

Why This Matters to You

At Unique Chrysler, this transition is more than just a corporate reshuffle—it’s a signal of Stellantis’ continued commitment to innovation, customer service, and regional relevance.

 

Filosa’s leadership style focuses on collaboration, customer connection, and smart product planning. That means exciting new models, improved quality, and better services for you, our customers.

 

It also means continued support for dealers like us, as Stellantis works in close partnership with its retail network to meet evolving customer needs.

 

Whether you’re looking for the latest in hybrid technology or a reliable family SUV, these decisions at the top influence what’s on our lot in Burlington.
