Ram, the first electric pickup will be called 1500 REV

The market of electric pickups is increasingly dynamic in the United States and the Stellantis Group is also preparing to enter it through its own Ram brand. After showing a concept car at CES 2023 in Las Vegas, the automaker shared a couple of teaser images of the future production model, also announcing the final name that has been chosen. The pickup, therefore, will be called Ram 1500 REV.

Production of the new Ram 1500 REV will begin next year. The official presentation of the standard model will be held, however, over the next few months. However, more information should arrive soon. Indeed, it seems that the new electric pickup will be the star of one commercial designed for Super Bowl 2023. As we know, many manufacturers take advantage of this important American sporting event to create special commercials in which they talk about their future projects. So, it’s likely that more details about this model could really emerge soon.

What do we know so far about the Ram 1500 REV? The first new teaser shows a part of the front end of the electric pickup. We can observe, in particular, the closed grille and the light signature of the LED headlights. The second image, on the other hand, shows a part of the bonnet where the “REV” logo is present. In addition, the wipers are also visible, which were not present in the 1500 Revolution concept presented in January.

Based on the first details told at CES 2023, the pickup will rest on the STLA Frame platform of the Stellantis Group which was developed specifically for electric cars. Thanks to the support for the 800 V architecture, it will be possible to fill up with very high power energy. The pickup will also be able to count on two electric motors, four-wheel drive and 4-wheel steering. However, the 1500 Revolution concept already anticipates many contents of the future production model. Therefore, we will probably be able to have up to 3 rows of seats and a lot of technology on board.

All that remains is to wait for the Super Bowl to understand if further details on the future new Ram 1500 REV electric pickup will really arrive through a dedicated commercial created by the car manufacturer. Mike Koval Jr, CEO of the Ram – Stellantis brand, commented:

At Ram, we started a revolution last year by inviting consumers to join the beginning of our electrification journey through their feedback on exactly what they look for in an electric pickup. We can’t wait to deliver our first electric pickup to these consumers next year. We are confident that the Ram 1500 REV will set the benchmark in its segment, offering the best combination of the features most important to customers: range, payload, towing capacity and speed of recharging.
