The Dodge RAM 1500 REV competes with the Cybertruck

Dodge replaces the V8 in its RAM with an electric motor. A few weeks ago, Dodge showed an electric pickup concept. Now the brand is pulling back the curtain on a production version called the Dodge Ram 1500 REV.

The electric giant has to compete with the Ford F-150 Electric and the Tesla Cybertruck. In terms of looks, however, Dodge takes a completely different approach than Tesla. Although the Cybertruck looks very pronounced and futuristic, the RAM 1500 REV stays close to its roots.

Humorous advertisement

We can’t really call it reduced, but it’s not much different from RAM with a combustion engine. Of course, the design hints here and there on his electric car. It’s like what Ford did with the F-150 Electric.

Citizens in general saw an electric pick-up passing by at the time of Super Bowl. At least, during the broadcast, the concert per se. Dodge posted an ad called ‘Lightning Before Time’. If you still don’t understand what it is early electricity draws comparisons in a funny way, then watch the commercial below.

Dodge believes its customers care about range and towing power. RAM CEO Mike Koval said: “We are in an exciting electric revolution, where RAM will beat the competition in the things that customers care about the most: range, charging capacity, pulling power and charging time.”

Variety of Dodge RAM 1500 REV

If we can believe the previous information of the brand, the RAM 1500 REV can drive more than 800 km on a full battery. Tesla claims the same lineup as its Cybertruck. That would be more than a Ford. This promises a range of 515 km with its F-150 Electric, which in practice only has about 370 km left.

Fast charging is possible up to 350 kW. Ten minutes on an 800 volt DC fast charger will be enough to fill 100 miles of range. Dodge doesn’t stop there. The brand will continue with its big promises. RAM 1500 REV is said to lead in terms of pulling power. This means that the pick-up can tow more than 6.5 tons. Tesla claims that the Cybertruck can tow 6,350 kg.

More information will be released about the RAM 1500 REV in the coming months, but you can already sign up for the electric Dodge. However, production won’t begin until the end of next year. Perhaps by then the first Tesla Cybertruck will have rolled out of the factory for an impressive double test.
