Stellantis reports 434,648 vehicle sales in the United States during the second quarter of 2023, which is six percent more than a year ago. This enabled it to improve its year-to-date result and almost reach the 2022 level.

Results in Q2 2023 and year-to-date:

Chrysler sales: 49,144 (up 33%) and 81,043 (up 23%)
Jeep sales: 181,284 (down 3%) and 335,487 (down 12%)
Stellantis sales: 434,648 (up 6%) and 802,975 (down 1%)
including Alfa Romeo, Chrysler, Dodge, Fiat, Jeep and Ram

The most interesting thing is happening in the plug-in hybrid segment, as Stellantis' PHEV sales are booming.

According to Stellantis, in Q2 2023, PHEV sales amounted to 36,473 units, which is 144 percent more than a year ago, and another new quarterly record. Not only that, PHEVs represented 8.4 percent of the total volume, compared to just 3.7 percent a year ago.

Both Chrysler and Jeep brands more than doubled their plug-in hybrid car sales, achieving a noticeable share of PHEVs out of their total volume.

No one has ever sold so many plug-in hybrids in the US and Stellantis is not going to slow down, as the company is launching two new plug-in hybrid models: Alfa Romeo Tonale ("shipping to dealerships now") and Dodge Hornet R/T PHEV.

Stellantis plug-in car sales in Q2 2023:

Chrysler: 8,763 (up 114%) and 17.8% share
Jeep: 27,710 (up 155%) and 15.3% share
Stellantis: 36,473 (up 144%) and 8.4% share

On the other hand, we have to wait a few more years until the first all-electric models from the group will finally enter the market.
