Francine emphasizes translating consumer demand for success, while addressing incoming Chinese EV tariffs and competitiveness in European EV market.

### Stellantis' Strategy to Compete with Chinese EV Imports in Europe
* 🚗 Francine questions the translation of technology advancements into consumer demand, highlighting the **challenge**.
* 🔒 Stellantis expects incoming tariffs on Chinese EV imports to provide a **significant boost to the EV market in Europe**.
* 🇨🇳 Stellantis acknowledges the competitive challenge posed by the Chinese EV market, emphasizing the need to **respond with cost-competitive offerings**.
* 💰 Stellantis believes that having a **competitive cost base for cars manufactured in Europe** will enable them to **effectively compete with Chinese manufacturers**.

INTO ACCOUNT. FRANCINE: IF IT'S NOT TRANSLATING INTO CONSUMER DEMAND, THAT IT'S QUITE TRICKY. THE OTHER BIG THING IS THE INCOMING TARIFFS ON CHINESE EV IMPORTS. ARE YOU EXPECTING THAT TO GIVE A BIG BOOST TO THE EV MARKET IN EUROPE? OBVIOUSLY, THE CHINESE OFFENSIVE IS THERE. THE CHINESE ARE COMING, AND THEY ARE CHALLENGING US BECAUSE THEY ARE COMING WITH VERY COMPETITIVE OFFERS. SO WHAT WE NEED TO DO IS FIGHT WITH THE SAME WEAPON AND BE ABLE TO PRODUCE CARS AT A COMPETITIVE COST. THIS IS WHAT WE ARE DOING WITH HISTORY ACROSS. WE THINK WE HAVE A VERY COMPETITIVE COST BASE FOR A CAR MADE IN EUROPE THAT WILL ENABLE US TO FACE THE CHINESE.
