Shares in Vauxhall owner Stellantis tumble after top boss quits abruptly - The car-making giant announced plans last week to shut its Luton van-making factory next April, putting more than 1,100 jobs at risk.

The boss of Stellantis has resigned after overseeing a sharp drop in car sales, as the Vauxhall owner struggles with the shift to electric vehicles.

The boss of car-making giant Stellantis, Carlos Tavares, has quit with immediate effect following a boardroom clash. His abrupt exit from the company - which owns brands including Vauxhall, Jeep, Fiat, Peugeot and Chrysler - comes two months after Stellantis issued a profit warning.
