It will take a significant commitment though. GM is finding this out with their Ultium battery factory. Battery production capacity is everything for full up EV production. I suspect FCA will be paying a lot of money to Tesla for the next few years. And maybe that’s the right business model for them. Although sooner or later it will be illegal to sell anything with a tail pipe. Or even drive it into a city which is already getting common in Europe.
Up until lately the PSA CEO has been luke warm on EV's, saying they are selling cars to addicts because when the government subsidies stop so do sales. They see the writing on the wall however and PSA is developing its own EV platform to use batteries from 60 to 100KW dubbed eVMP, with production starting in 2023.
FCA recently announced it is opening an new plant in Windsor Ontario that will be dedicated to PHEV and EV production. It will be producing vehicles in 2024. One guess who's platform they will be using for EV's.
