MILAN, Dec 4 (Reuters) - Divergences between Carlos

Tavares and Stellantis ( STLA ) board members, which led to the CEO's

abrupt resignation, were mainly over priorities for the next 15

months and on how the automaker relates to its stakeholders,

finance chief Doug Ostermann said on Wednesday.

The automaker, however, saw no major changes to its term

strategy, including its choice to develop multi-energy

platforms, that can support vehicles with different kind of

propulsion.

Ostermann is speaking at a Goldman Sachs virtual conference,

in first public remarks by a Stellantis ( STLA ) top executive after

former CEO Carlos Tavares abruptly resigned on Sunday.
