Car maker Stellantis has preventively extended a recall of vehicles with potentially faulty airbags to more Citroen and DS models, as well as the Opel brand, spokespeople for the carmaker told Reuters on Friday. Citroen C4, DS4 and DS5 models as well as Opel models are now also subject to a "preventive recall measure", which is less restrictive than the initial recall of Citroen C3 and DS3 models, which requires the immobilisation of the vehicles concerned, they said.

Market demand for Fiat's new hybrid 500e small car amounts to around 100,000-110,000 units a year, a group executive said on Thursday, as the company offers a cheaper version of its fully-electric model (EV). Fiat maker Stellantis last month announced it would add hybrid versions of its 500e small electric car and Jeep Compass SUV, to be manufactured in Italy, amid a global slowdown in electric car sales. The "mild" hybrid 500e will combine a petrol engine and a battery, but not have a plug.
