If Stellantis has engineered the Ramcarger properly, I think they will have a real winner on their hands. If you're commuting, it will run all electric, cheaply charging at home. If you're towing, it will have the EV torque with the range vastly extended by a gasoline engine / generator. If you're RVing with a travel trailer, 7.2kw at 240v is 30 amps, so it can power most everything for a very long time. This could be the best of both worlds.

The literal locomotive on wheels. LOL engine - generator - motors - batteries. LOL love it (PS work for the railroad, so this hits hard)
-
I’m not a Dodge guy, but that Ramcharger is pretty awesome! I don’t know what took the industry so long to build a series hybrid like that?
-
I have owned a Chevy Volt for 7 years....this is the truck version of that. The Volt has been Amazing. 90% of the miles are electric, 10% from the gas generator. No range issues ever.
-
Stellantis/Dodge/Ram really was smart to wait to see how the competition handled the EV trend and came out on top. Definitely impressed and will be keeping a close eye on this.
-
I think this is a really compelling product. EV monday-friday weekend warrior no range worries or a business that tows daily
-
Looking forward to The Ike towing test
-
RAM is most popular out west and that is where the range extender will be game changing. One of the advantages of bringing a product a bit late and seeing where the other brands are leaving gaps in the needs of buyers.
-
Love it! Keep up the Ramcharger detailed news, TFL and Andrey! Brilliant design and transitional implementation. We want this Ramcharger functionality here in northern Utah.
-
I really hope this plays out to be as good as it can be. I own both a Power Wagon and a Model S. I would sell both for this, and it would be perfect for me every day and for family trips/camping.
-
Ram charger is a potential game changer in the future they may configure it with different batteries as well as maybe a straight 6 for even more range payload & towing I still haven't warmed up to electric vehicles yet but I like the direction of the ram charger game changer
-
The Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) has a specific definition of a hybrid vehicle, and this is a hybrid. There are many ways to "connect" the engine to the wheels, and it doesn't matter if it is mechanical or electric.
-
This truck has so much potential. daily driver on electric, towing without compromise, generator onboard for export potential. Ideal for the RV crowd, why put a genny and extra batteries on your RV when the truck already has them. Charge at the campsite for local driving. Its a no brainer. Its also an ideal truck for farmers or contractors, this think has it all without compromise. Well done Stelantis. Vehicle of the year 2025.
-
This is absolutely the correct way to marry the two technologies. One drive drain that supplies all the power to the wheels. Not two half-powered drive trains that each introduce complimentary points of failure.
-
FINALLY! An EV truck that cares more about range than the 0-60 time!!! These things are going to sell really well!!
-
Looks and sounds great, and the all EV is fabulous. Thanks
-
I can't believe that other OEMs aren't going this route or the route of the inline-6. I'm excited to see how it works out although I don't trust Stellantis for reliability so I will watch from the sidelines.
-
This is like the Chevy volt of truck EV’s into me that makes way more sense than a total EV truck because if your commute is less than 50 or 60 miles a day than the truck would essentially be total electric when you charge it every night and for the longer trips you just kick on The gas engine.
-
Thanks guys 👍😉💪

I have very little interest in the REV with the Ramcharger as a possibility. Now to wait for pricing on a tradesman model
