Stellantis is investing over 130 million euros in the Eisenach, Germany plant, maker of the Opel Grandland compact SUV, to add production of the model’s successor BEV vehicle, built on the all-new STLA Medium platform. The start of production of the new BEV is scheduled for the second half of 2024.
The addition of a battery electric vehicle (BEV) to production in Eisenach supports Opel’s bold commitment to a full-electric product range by 2028. The Opel Grandland model, currently produced in Eisenach, includes a plug-in variant in hybrid.
“Eisenach, our most compact plant in Germany, has demonstrated great commitment to quality improvement,” explains Arnaud Deboeuf, Chief Manufacturing Officer of Stellantis. “With the award of Stellantis’ new fully BEV platform, STLA Medium, the highly skilled workforce at the Eisenach plant will continue to improve the costs and quality of the vehicles produced to better satisfy customers.”
