Stellantis has expanded its collaboration with Mistral AI to integrate AI across its enterprise to enhance vehicle engineering and in-car experiences.

The companies will focus on developing an AI-powered in-car assistant, which could offer real-time, conversational support to drivers.
This in-car assistant will be developed to enable drivers to interact with their vehicles using natural language, functioning as a voice-enabled user manual.
Customers will be able to inquire about vehicle features, troubleshooting, or warning indicators and receive immediate, conversational guidance from the assistant.
The assistant will be continuously updated and adaptable to various Stellantis brands and models, the company said.

In addition to the in-car assistant, Stellantis and Mistral AI are exploring several AI-driven initiatives, including a Bill of Materials Data Intelligence tool for streamlining component database analysis.
Other AI-driven initiatives being explored by the parties include Vehicles Feedback Data Analysis for identifying trends and corrective actions, a “Club Stellantis” Virtual Assistant to aid employees in purchasing company vehicles, and AI-Driven Anomaly Detection for real-time error identification in manufacturing.
Mistral AI CEO and co-founder Arthur Mensch said: “Stellantis’ bold approach to technology, and its ability to integrate advanced AI into real-world driving experiences make it an ideal partner to showcase how Mistral AI’s versatile solutions can reinvent mobility and empower engineers in their work.”
