Stellantis NV is facing delays to some electric models due to manufacturing difficulties at one of the company’s battery makers, according to people familiar with the situation.

Fully electric models such as the Peugeot 3008 and 5008 are being delayed by as long as eight months because of production snags involving long-range batteries made by Automotive Cells Co., said the people, asking not to be identified discussing private information.
