The Automaker Announces Production of Fiat Titano, Peugeot Landtrek, and Ram 1200 in 2025. Focused on Export, 75% of Production Will Be Destined for South America, with Brazil Being the Main Destination

Stellantis has just announced an investment of R$ 2 billion for the production of a new family of pickups at its factory in Córdoba, Argentina. This move aims to manufacture vehicles such as Fiat Titano, Peugeot Landtrek, and Ram 1200, three models that promise to shake up the South American market. According to the company, production is scheduled to start in 2025, and 75% of the produced vehicles will be exported to other countries in South America, with Brazil receiving the largest share, according to the website autossegredos.

In addition to the pickups, Stellantis will also develop components and a new engine, reinforcing the automaker’s commitment to consolidating its presence in the region. And, of course, consumers in Brazil are already eager to check out these launches up close.

What many had speculated has become a reality: Stellantis confirmed that the pickups Fiat Titano, Peugeot Landtrek, and Ram 1200 will be produced in Argentina. Although the company has kept silent about the details, industry sources and previous reports had already confirmed this information.

These three models will be manufactured exclusively in the double cabin version, offering more space and comfort for users. With this bet, the automaker hopes to attract both the audience that uses pickups for work and those looking for a robust and versatile vehicle for everyday use.

However, the visual changes will be minimal for the Titano and the Landtrek, while the Ram 1200 will feature a simpler version with modifications to the front grille, and a version with a completely exclusive design. Inside, the Ram 1200 will also have a differentiated interior, highlighting the embedded technology, which will certainly attract enthusiasts of more sophisticated pickups.

Powerful Engines and High Technology

If you are wondering about the performance of these pickups, you can rest assured: Stellantis is not sparing any effort in this regard. The three pickups – Fiat Titano, Peugeot Landtrek, and Ram 1200 – will be equipped with the new 2.2 Turbo Diesel engine, a powertrain that delivers about 200 hp and 45 kgfm of torque.

This engine will be combined with a ZF eight-speed automatic transmission, providing smooth and efficient driving, even in the most challenging conditions. And the best part: the torque will be delivered at low RPM, ensuring superior performance on rough terrains. Additionally, the vehicles will have 4×2 and 4×4 drivetrain options, including low range, to tackle any type of terrain.

It is worth noting that this engine will also be used in other models of the brand, such as the Ram Rampage and the Fiat Toro, both manufactured in Brazil. This means that the technology developed in Argentina will have a direct impact on the Brazilian automotive market, raising the quality standards of the pickups sold here.

Córdoba Factory Will Continue Producing the Fiat Cronos

Despite all the commotion around the pickups, the Córdoba factory will continue producing the Fiat Cronos, one of the brand’s most popular sedans. However, the model will undergo a deep redesign in 2025, promising a renewed look and new technologies to remain competitive in the market.

This flexibility of the Córdoba plant to produce both sedans and pickups reinforces Stellantis‘ capacity to meet different market demands, both in Argentina and in other countries in South America.

Impact on the South American Market

With this new billion-dollar investment, Stellantis reinforces its position as one of the leading automakers in the South American automotive landscape. The production of pickups in Córdoba will not only meet the needs of the Argentine domestic market, but will also boost exports to neighboring countries, especially Brazil, where the demand for such vehicles continues to grow.

This expansion strategy is a clear indication that Stellantis is focused on dominating the pickup market in the region, offering models with high technology, powerful engines, and innovative design. And with the Fiat Titano, Peugeot Landtrek, and Ram 1200 in the portfolio, the automaker is well-positioned to consolidate its leadership in the segment.

With production slated for 2025 and a strong investment in technology and powertrains, the future of pickups from Stellantis looks promising, bringing innovations that will surely please both Argentine and Brazilian consumers.

Por uma questão de justiça, carros importados da Argentina e outros países, deveriam ter a mesma taxa que o carros elétricos da China.
