The platform can be used on a variety of vehicles and propulsion configurations in the center of the mass-market, the C- and D-segments, which accounted for 35 million sales in 2022 of the 78.5 million vehicles sold globally that year. Stellantis brands right now offer 26 vehicle nameplates in those segments on a variety of platforms. Up to two million vehicles per year can be built on the STLA Medium platform in several plants.

STLA Medium at First Glance

The BEV-by-design STLA Medium platform has a range as stated of more than 700 km (435 miles) with a Performance pack, while a Standard pack is rated at more than 500 km (310 miles) on the Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure (WLTP). With a claimed useful energy up to 98 kilowatt-hours (kWh), STLA Medium is said to be best in class in embedded energy between the wheels.

STLA Medium uses a 400-volt electric architecture. It is projected to deliver best-in-class energy efficiency and charging time and connectivity to a charging and services “ecosystem.” Depending on the application, consumption can be less than 14 kWh per 100 km, which is the claimed best in class in energy efficiency. Owners will be able to take their battery from 20% to 80% charge in 27 minutes, a rate of 2.4 kWh per minute.

Vehicles based on STLA Medium will be sold globally and be available with front-drive or all-wheel drive with the addition of a second electric drive module at the rear, with BEV power output range from 160 to 285 kW.
