Aramis SAS

Stellantis N.V. is considering selling its controlling stake in used-car marketplace Aramis Group as the automaker prepares for a larger investment cycle. Stellantis owns 60.5% of Aramis and controls 67.4% of its voting rights, and Rothschild & Co and Citi have reportedly been hired to work on a prospective sale. Aramis is now valued at just 263 million, down from nearly 1.9 billion at its 2021 IPO, and sales of Aramis vehicles fell more than 6% to 1.6 billion in the first nine months of 2026, with restored vehicle sales down about 5%. The prospective exit comes as management focuses more on Stellantis' main automotive business, with the automaker planning investments of almost 60 billion up to 2030 amid growing competition, mainly from Chinese manufacturers. Stellantis shares rose roughly 3.4% on Thursday.
