Ram’s prepared to start out speaking about its production-bound electrical pickup truck.
On Sunday, the truck division of Stellantis revealed the outside of the Ram 1500 REV with the the automaker’s game-day business throughout Tremendous Bowl LVII.
Whereas pre-orders aren’t being taken but, Ram started taking a refundable $100 payment from prospects to order their spot in line to pre-order the Ram 1500 REV.

The idea truck’s split-LED daytime working lights that run into the blacked-out sealed grille and sculpted hood all make it into manufacturing. The taillights are much like these of the idea and run into the tailgate, and whereas the wheel design matches that of the idea, the manufacturing truck’s wheels do not look like the huge 24-inchers the glitzy idea rode on.
Ram Bins might be seen on the truck mattress sides, and the cost port is mounted on the motive force’s facet entrance fender. The cab doorways, roof, entrance fenders, and rear mattress sides all appear to be carryover models from the present fuel truck.
Gone are the coach doorways of the idea. There are not any rear C-pillar sails, seemingly no midgate, no extra-long cabin (which allowed the idea to have three rows of seats due to a pair of bounce seats within the rear), and no break up tailgate from the idea.
The Tremendous Bowl business, titled “Untimely Electrification,” is cheeky and pokes enjoyable at opponents that may not ship the vary shoppers count on out of a pickup truck when it comes time to work. A fast glimpse of the Ram 1500 REV’s inside proven through the business reveals a seemingly up to date model of right now’s gas-powered truck. A big portrait-style touchscreen dominates the dashboard augmented by buttons, knobs, and what seems to be a brand new passenger-side dashboard mounted touchscreen much like the choice discovered within the Jeep Grand Wagoneer and Grand Cherokees. The gear selector remains to be a rotary design.

Whereas the outside appears to be like evolutionary and much like right now’s truck, what’s beneath is not. The Ram 1500 REV will experience on the brand new STLA Body chassis, which is one among 4 modular EV chassis designs that can underpin the longer term Stellantis lineup.
Ram CEO Mike Koval Jr. has informed Motor Authority that 300 to 400 miles of vary looks like the candy spot for shoppers wanting to make use of an electrical pickup truck. Stellantis has stated the STLA Body platform is able to as much as 500 miles of vary.
