Stellantis, the parent company of Chrysler, is laying off approximately 400 U.S. workers due to 'unprecedented uncertainties.' This decision follows Stellantis informing the employees, who were previously working from home, about the layoffs. The layoffs are attributed to increased competition in the electric vehicle market and economic challenges stemming from its contract with the United Auto Workers. In a similar move, Ford is cutting its workforce at the factory producing the Ford F-150 Lightning due to slow electric vehicle sales. Ford plans to reduce staff by 66%, affecting around 1,400 employees, as demand for electric trucks falls short of expectations.
