According to foreign media reports, Stellantis will not launch Ram’s first pure electric pickup truck, the Ram 1500 REV, before the end of 2024 as originally planned.
Stellantis will delay the release of the pickup truck as it struggles to cope with a “huge” workload.
, At the 2023 Consumer Electronics Show (CES 2023), Stellantis stole the limelight by releasing the Ram 1500 REV concept car.
Carlos Tavares, CEO of Stellantis, said Ram’s electric pickup truck will “surpass all competitors” in the most important aspects of range, payload, traction and charging time.
, Image source: Stellantis, the Ram 1500 REV will be equipped with a battery pack with a capacity of 168 kilowatt hours and its range will exceed 350 miles (approximately 563 kilometers).
In addition, the car has a maximum traction force of 14,000 pounds and a maximum payload of 2,700 pounds.
, Stellantis originally planned to officially launch the Ram 1500 REV before the end of this year, but this plan is now impossible.
, On November 19, Stellantis released a new STLA Frame platform, and Tang Weishi later confirmed that the release of Ram’s first electric pickup truck will be postponed until the first half of 2025.
“We are facing a very large workload,” Tang Weishi told reporters.
The company wants to “proceed cautiously during the verification process, so we’ll take it slow.
” He said the company was “managing the peak period between future products.
” Stellantis ‘product peak period will include several highly anticipated electric vehicles such as the Dodge Charger Daytona, the Jeep Wagoneer S and the Ram 1500 REV.
, Tang Weishi highlighted the new STLA Frame platform designed by Stellantis for the upcoming Ram and Jeep electric vehicles.
The new platform has a cruising range of up to 500 miles (about 800 kilometers).
For extended range electric vehicles, such as the upcoming Ram truck, the range can be as high as 690 miles (approximately 1,110 kilometers).
