When Marchionne spun off Ferrari, he made it one of the most valuable car companies on Earth—per car sold. Ferrari now has a market cap larger than Stellantis’s entire group.
Think about that: The tiny, red, prancing horse is worth more as a standalone brand than the giant company that owns Jeep, Ram, and Peugeot. Mic drop.
Stellantis owns zero control over Ferrari’s F1 team, its limited-edition hypercars, or its luxury lifestyle goods. They can’t even borrow the cappuccino maker at Maranello.

So, Why Do People Still Ask?
Because car history is messy, like a spaghetti Western. The names “Fiat,” “Ferrari,” and “Agnelli” are interwoven like threads on a vintage racing scarf.
Also, people love a good conspiracy. “Surely,” they think, “Stellantis must own just a little piece, right?” The answer is yes, technically, but it’s irrelevant. It’s like owning 0.0001% of the Moon.
And let’s not forget: Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares has openly said he wishes they owned Ferrari. But wishes aren’t keys, and Ferrari’s factory gate remains firmly locked.
