Yesterday, Ram Truck announced that its first battery-electric pickup truck will be known as the Ram 1500 REV. The brand teased the concept last November.
“At Ram, we started a revolution last year as we invited consumers along on the beginning of our electrification journey, gathering their feedback on exactly what they are looking for in an electric pickup truck,” said Mike Koval Jr., Ram brand CEO – Stellantis. “We look forward to delivering our first EV pickup – the all-new Ram 1500 REV – to those consumers next year. We are confident the Ram 1500 REV will push past the competition, offering what will be the leading combination of attributes customers care about the most: range, payload, towing and charge time.”
Production of the all-new Ram 1500 REV will begin next year, the announcement stated, and more information will be available on Sunday, Feb. 12. The vehicle will be formally revealed in the coming months, the brand said.
The 2022 J.D. Power APEAL study named the 2022 Ram 1500 as the best vehicle in the large light-duty pickup category, marking the third straight year receiving top honors.
Ram plans to offer electrified vehicles in most of its segments by 2025, and all by 2030.
