Moreover, Carlos Tavares, CEO of the Stellantis group, on being asked to elaborating on the EV roadmap in India last year, said "We are going to bring not only compact cars, I would say within the Indian market segmentation less than four meters, but we'll also bring EVs with people movers for the next products to be launched. We will bring those EV versions in both the less than four-metre cars and to MPV-SUV oriented products that will come next", as per PTI.

According to PTI, when asked about how much the Stellantis group expects EVs to contribute to its overall sales in India in future, he said, "I think that in the near term (by 2025) it's going to be 5 per cent to 10 per cent in terms of the mix, and by the end of the decade, perhaps 25 per cent to 30 per cent".
