Stellantis has named Alain Favey as the new CEO of Peugeot where he will report directly to Jean-Philippe Imparato, COO of Enlarged Europe.
Favey brings extensive industry experience, having spent two decades with Groupe PSA, where he held senior positions such as Country MD for Citroën in Denmark, Belux, the UK, Italy, and France. In 2009, he moved to Volkswagen AG, taking on key leadership roles at Porsche Holding, Skoda, and Bentley Motors. Most recently, he served as CEO of Europcar Mobility Group since June 2023.
“It is with great pride and enthusiasm that I take over the leadership of the PEUGEOT brand. Taking on new challenges has always been my driving force throughout my 35-year career in the automotive industry. Joining Stellantis is in a way a return to my roots, with particularly exciting opportunities ahead. We’re at a technological and societal turning point in our relationship with the automobile, and the PEUGEOT brand, through its creativity and innovation, is for me a major player in this evolution.”

Favey is replacing Linda Jackson who retired after spending 20 years at the company.
“Linda is one of the emblematic figures within Stellantis. Her determination, leadership, taste for innovation and great professionalism have enabled a remarkable repositioning of the PEUGEOT brand in France and internationally, with in particular a distinctive range that has been completely renewed and is 100% electric. I would like to thank Linda for her years of commitment to Stellantis and for the major role she has played in the success of our electrification strategy.”
