Stellantis says it plans to increase its shareholding in GAC-Stellantis from 50% to 75%.

The manufacturer says it is a “key element” of its plan to set a new basis for its business in China.

The change is possible due to a new regulatory framework, allowing additional foreign investment in existing JVs, starting from January, 2022.

GAC Group and Stellantis have agreed to collaboratively complete the relevant formalities of the deal, which remains subject to approval of the Chinese government.

GAC-Stellantis is a joint venture formed between China Guangzhou Automobile Group (GAC Group) and Stellantis in March, 2010.

In September, 2021, Stellantis announced it would create a simplified operating organisation, Stellantis Jeep, to develop the brand in China.
