Can Stellantis enter the Chinese market?

In October 2019, Fiat Chrysler and competitor PSA Group announced the agreement of a merger between the two manufacturers. The merger aims to serve both parties by helping boost research and development into electric vehicles and providing better access to their rivals' markets. Both companies have struggled in China, the world’s largest automotive market. Shutting down some operations is often expected as a result of automotive mergers; PSA lost one of its Chinese partners in the days before the announcement of the merger. Chinese preference has been shifting towards battery electric vehicles. PSA and FCA will be competing with brands that have already established a presence with electric models.
