Stellantis has appointed Arnaud Belloni as CEO of the FIAT, Abarth and Lancia brands and Chief Marketing Officer for Europe, effective Sept. 1, 2026. He reports to Emanuele Cappellano, Stellantis' chief operating officer for Enlarged Europe. Belloni returns after 16 years with Stellantis and its predecessor companies, including roles as FIAT and Lancia brand marketing director, managing director of Lancia France and vice president of marketing for Asia Pacific. He later served as Citroën's global chief marketing officer for communications and sports from 2015 to 2020, joined Renault Group as global CMO in November 2020 and became chief branding officer for all Renault Group brands in May 2023. The appointment forms part of a leadership overhaul linked to the FaSTLAne 2030 plan, which elevated FIAT to one of Stellantis' four Global Brands and calls for broader market coverage through new global platforms. Grizzly and Grizzly Fastback models are expected to follow Grande Panda in expanding FIAT's presence in the C-segment. Gaetano Thorel will continue leading FIAT and Abarth for Enlarged Europe and will assume responsibility for Lancia, reporting functionally to Belloni. Olivier François will support the transition through mid-October before becoming a strategic advisor focused on brand and product strategy. Stellantis returned to profitability in the first half of 2026, reporting net income of €656 million after a €22,368 million loss in 2025, while investors continue to focus on margin recovery, tariffs and regulatory costs.
