TURIN, Dec 12 (Reuters) - Stellantis ( STLA ) decision

to rejoin the European auto lobby ACEA means the carmaker will

immediately align itself with the group's proposals, Stellantis' ( STLA )

Europe Chief Jean-Philippe Imparato said on Thursday.

Stellantis ( STLA ) last week said it would rejoin ACEA, which it

left at the beginning of 2023.

Under Chief Executive Carlos Tavares, who resigned

earlier this month, the group previously opposed a call by ACEA

for relief on EU 2025 intermediate carbon reduction targets,

which could cost to the auto industry billions.
