The electric vehicle market is growing rapidly, and the pickup truck segment is no exception. Several automakers have already unveiled their plans to launch electric trucks in the near future, such as the Ford F-150 Lightning, the Rivian R1T, and the GMC Hummer EV. However, they need to match the impressive features and capabilities of the new 2025 RAM 1500 REV, which made its world debut at the New York International Auto Show.
The RAM 1500 REV is the first battery-electric light pickup truck from RAM Truck, and it is a game-changer in every aspect. It is based on the award-winning RAM 1500 but has been redesigned and reengineered to offer a new level of performance, efficiency, and innovation. The RAM 1500 REV is not just an electric truck; it is a truck that electrifies.
The RAM 1500 REV offers two battery options: a standard 168-kWh pack that provides a target range of up to 350 miles and an optional 229-kWh pack that delivers a target range of up to an unmatched 500 miles. Both packs can be recharged quickly and conveniently using an 800-volt DC fast charger that can add up to 110 miles of range in about 10 minutes. The RAM 1500 REV also supports bi-directional charging, which means it can share its power with another Stellantis electric vehicle or even supply energy to a home or a grid in case of a power outage.
The RAM 1500 REV is powered by two electric motors, one on each axle, that produce a combined output of 654 horsepower and 620 lb-ft of torque. This allows the truck to accelerate from zero to 60 mph in just 4.4 seconds and reach a top speed of 120 mph. The RAM 1500 REV also boasts an impressive towing capacity of up to 14,000 pounds and a payload capacity of up to 2,700 pounds, making it one of the most capable trucks on the market.
The RAM 1500 REV also features a new STLA Frame platform that enhances its strength and durability. The platform also accommodates a spacious front trunk or "frunk" that offers additional cargo space and onboard power outlets. The truck's exterior design has been updated with a new seven-slot grille with an illuminated RAM badge, dynamic LED lighting, charging identification lights, and ten new wheel designs.
