Davino arrives at a critical juncture for the manufacturer as it pushes to revitalize its European passenger vehicle lineup with five new models slated for release by 2029. Her mandate includes bolstering Ford Pro, the company’s commercial vehicle arm, which currently maintains a dominant market share in the region. She brings over two decades of automotive experience, including significant tenures at Stellantis, where she served as Group Managing Director and CEO for the UK, and at Lamborghini, where she launched her career in 2003.
Her transition from BYD, where she managed operations across Germany, Switzerland, and the Nordic markets, signals Ford’s intent to leverage her expertise in brand development and electric vehicle transitions. Jim Baumbick cited her history of cultivating high-performing teams and managing complex dealer relationships as essential assets for the company’s ongoing regional transformation.
