Look Out Tesla Cybertruck, RAM Has A 500-Mile Pickup Truck Too
During the Stellantis EV Day 2021, RAM teased an upcoming fully electric pickup truck, which might get up to 500 miles (800 km) of range. Let's take a look.
First of all, Stellantis intends to use four platforms (see details), including one body on frame type - STLA Frame. It will be equipped with battery packs from 159 kWh to over 200 kWh to provide a range of up to 800 km/500 miles.
Depending on the model/version, the STLA Frame can be equipped with EDM #2 (125-180 kW) or EDM #3 (150-330 kW) electric drive modules. Two of such units (one in front and one in rear) would provide a system output of 500-600 kW and all-wheel drive.
This alone provides us with general boundaries of what we can expect from the RAM's electric pickup.
This new vehicle will be a full-size battery-electric pickup truck, called RAM 1500 BEV. Production will start in 2024.
By 2025, the company intends to offer a fully electrified solution in the majority of its segments, and in all segments no later than 2030, which means multiple electric trucks and vans.
