Stellantis has appointed Scott Krugger as the new head of design for Stellantis North America. Krugger will be responsible for overseeing the creative direction and design strategy for the Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Ram brands.
Krugger joined the company in 2001 and has held several positions of increasing responsibility. Most recently, he managed all aspects of exterior design for Dodge and Dodge/SRT cars and commercial vehicles for North America, following a five-year stint as head of Alfa Romeo, Jeep and User Experience design at the company’s EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) style center.
The announcement of Krugger’s new role follows last week’s hiring of Gilles Vidal as head of design for all of Stellantis’ European brands. Both appointments represent important steps in the implementation of Chief Design Officer Ralph Gilles’ new design organization.
