Stellantis Pro One, the commercial vehicle arm of Stellantis, reported a 7% rise in global sales volumes in the first half of 2026, with especially strong momentum in North America where a double-digit surge pushed the brand deeper into a fiercely competitive fleet market.

North America leads the charge

On July 23, 2026, Stellantis Pro One delivered solid global results in the first half of 2026, maintaining leadership positions across major global regions and delivering 7% growth. The report, published on the Stellantis official newsroom, covers results across all major commercial vehicle segments including vans, pickup trucks and electrified fleet models.

In North America, Stellantis Pro One ranked third in the commercial vehicle market, increasing its market share to 14.1%, up 2.0 percentage points year over year. Total commercial vehicle sales increased by 13%, supported by strong performances from Ram and Peugeot commercial vehicles.

Ram recorded growth across both light- and heavy-duty pickup truck segments. The Ram 1500 earned a major credibility win in the J.D. Power 2026 U.S. Vehicle Dependability Study, ranking No. 1 in the Large Light Duty Pickup segment.

In Canada, Ram sales increased 8%, while heavy-duty truck sales rose 21%.

In Mexico, Stellantis advanced to the top position overall, reaching 18.8% market share, while Ram sales increased 43% and total commercial vehicle sales grew 36% , marking the most dramatic regional gains in Pro One’s half-year report.

Europe and global fleet positions

In Europe, Stellantis Pro One retained its leading position with a 28.7% market share in the first half of the year, with 273,600 units sold. That result extends the company’s uninterrupted dominance of the European light commercial vehicle segment, where its multi-brand portfolio of Fiat Professional, Peugeot, Citroën, Opel and Vauxhall vans competes across every size category.

In the Middle East and Africa, Stellantis Pro One achieved a 22.3% market share, up 1.8 percentage points year over year. The company maintained clear leadership in van segments with a 36.0% market share.

The company also held a market share of more than double the second-ranked competitor in South America, reaching 33.9%.

Why fleet operators are watching

Commercial fleet sales reached 79,625 vehicles in June, up from 72,306 in June 2025, a rise of 10.1% , according to monthly fleet sales figures released by Bobit Business Media on July 1.

Year-to-date commercial fleet sales stood at 431,870 vehicles compared to 401,268 sold through June 30, 2025, for an increase of 7.6%.

For Stellantis, the commercial results offer a counterbalance to ongoing pressure in passenger car markets. The Pro One division operates as a standalone business unit, pursuing fleet, rental, government and work-vehicle customers separately from retail operations.

As incentive spending climbs across the industry, fleet buyers driven by utilization and total cost of ownership have proven comparatively resilient to the retail discount pressures reshaping the broader market.

Stellantis Pro One’s leadership is reinforced through a multi-brand strategy spanning vans, pickups and electrified commercial vehicles. The company is scheduled to present further commercial vehicle initiatives at the IAA Transportation trade show in Hannover, taking place September 15, 20, 2026 , where electrified van platforms and fleet telematics services are expected to feature prominently.

Ram’s dependability edge

The J.D. Power dependability recognition for the Ram 1500 in the Large Light Duty Pickup segment is commercially significant in the fleet context. The half-ton improved 13 points year over year, jumping from fourth to first in its segment, with gains tied to stronger long-term durability and real-world dependability. Fleet managers prioritizing uptime and residual values treat third-party reliability rankings as a key procurement factor, and a segment-leading score strengthens Ram’s case against Ford’s F-Series lineup.

For context, Ford Pro’s profits slid by hundreds of millions in a recent quarter, creating an opening that rivals including Ram have moved to exploit.

Cox Automotive senior manager of economic and industry insights Zohaib Rahim said “commercial vehicle sales increased 10% in June compared to last year and are almost 8% this year,” adding that “the rebound in sales comes after a dip in May, as commercial vehicles continue to see strong sales gains this year.”

That market-wide tailwind has helped lift results across multiple manufacturers, but Stellantis Pro One’s North American commercial vehicle sales were up 13% year over year , outpacing the broader segment’s performance.

Stellantis has not disclosed a revised full-year sales target for Pro One, but the first-half momentum puts the unit on track for its strongest annual commercial vehicle result in several years across its key regions.
