By means of investments in two key joint ventures at Trémery-Metz, Stellantis has deployed a vertical integration technique designed to extend management of the worldwide electrification worth chain.
Emotors, a 50/50 three way partnership between Stellantis and Nidec Leroy-Somer Holding (a Nidec Group firm), will begin manufacturing this 12 months of its vary of electrical motors on the Stellantis Trémery plant, previously the world’s largest diesel plant, and now Stellantis’ first facility to provide electrical motors.
Backed by €93 million of commercial investments up to now, Emotors goals to drive Stellantis’ electrification progress whereas additionally assembly the wants of different automakers. The three way partnership has a deliberate capability exceeding 1 million motors per 12 months from 2024.

The eDCT is offered with 48-volt and 320-volt electrification and can be utilized for hybrid and PHEV functions. Because of launch in 2023, the 48-volt hybrid propulsion system mixed with an evolution of the award-winning PureTech Turbo 3-cylinder 1.2-liter gasoline engine gives a real electrified driving expertise propelling the car’s wheels even when the ICE is turned off and decreasing gas consumption and CO2 by as much as 20% compared with the present powertrain.
Over the previous 4 years, the merged corporations that shaped Stellantis have invested roughly €2 billion within the French manufacturing transformation and roughly €750 million for the reason that creation of Stellantis in 2021.
Trémery-Metz brings collectively the Trémery website, which specializes within the manufacturing of engines and e-powertrains, and the Metz website, devoted to the manufacturing of five- and six-speed guide gearboxes. Positioned within the coronary heart of Europe, Trémery-Metz has been rooted in Moselle for over 45 years. Its very best geographical location and quick proximity to highways allows Trémery-Metz to ship 1000’s of engines and gearboxes produced each day throughout the continent.
