- Jeep Wrangler 4xe – 43,176
- Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid – 14,392
- Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe – at least 5,813
- Total: 63,381+ (at least 4.1{12dec99aef6f119e349308ab81c83b123ba77cd3d9c980ff09eaac1f958a2724} of the total Stellantis volume)
More plug-in hybrids and the first all-electric models from Stellantis are on the horizon and it seems that the brand will gradually become more and more electrified – maybe even faster than we initially thought.
