Stellantis NV is approaching the end of its complicated search for a new chief executive officer, with Americas boss Antonio Filosa emerging as the leading candidate, according to people familiar with the matter.

The maker of Jeep SUVs, Ram pickups and Fiat hatchbacks is closing in on a final decision, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the deliberations are private. The situation remains fluid and the board led by Chairman John Elkann could end up picking someone other than Filosa, the people said.
