Meet the 2027 Ram 1500 REV — A New Era for Ram & the FCA/Stellantis Family
The Ram 1500 REV (Range-Extended Vehicle) marks a bold step forward for the Stellantis portfolio. It bridges the gap between classic work-truck capability and next-generation electric innovation. For fans of Jeep, Dodge, Ram, Chrysler and the wider family, the REV offers something unique: capability, range, and luxury, without compromising on utility.
Key Features & What Makes It Unique
Here’s what sets the 1500 REV apart:
| Feature | Detail |
|---|---|
| Powertrain / Range | Two 400-volt Electric Drive Modules (EDMs) with a 92 kWh battery are the core of its EV credentials. Ram Trucks It also has a range-extender onboard generator — Ram’s “on-board battery charger” — so you’re not entirely dependent on charging infrastructure. Ram Trucks The claimed driving range is over 1,000 km (≈ ~1,110 km) under ideal conditions. Ram Trucks |
| Performance | Roughly 663 horsepower, 615 lb-ft of torque, and a targeted 0-60 mph (0-98 kph) in about 4.4 seconds. That’s supercar-like quickness for a full-size electric pickup. Ram Trucks |
| Towing & Payload | Looks very promising: payload up to 2,600 lb (≈ 1,179 kg) and max towing capacity of 14,000 lb (≈ 6,350 kg). Ram Trucks For many users who expect Ram workhorse utility, this keeps the REV from feeling like a compromise. |
| Charging & Flexibility | Three-level charging supported (Level 1, Level 2, DC Fast Charge). Ram Trucks Also includes Free2move charging network access for public charging. Ram Trucks And the rev’s range-extender (backed by a 3.6 L Pentastar V6 engine) acts as an onboard generator to recharge the battery when external charging isn’t available. Ram Trucks |
| Technology & Interior | The REV brings high-end features: large centre touchscreen (14.5-inch), passenger interactive display, 12.3-inch driver cluster, digital key (using compatible smartphones / Apple Watch), multiple drive modes (charge-depleting, battery hold, eAWD, eSport, Eco) to adapt to different driving conditions. Ram Trucks |
| Luxury & Design | The “Tungsten” trim raises the bar: 22-inch wheels, premium leather 24-way power front seats with memory and massage, real wood accents, noise-cancelling features. Exterior design includes dynamic powered tailgate, illuminated Ram badge, stylish LED lighting, walk-up animation, and RamBox cargo management built into the bed rails (weatherproof, illuminated, lockable, with power outlet).

What This Means for Jeep / Dodge / Chrysler / Ram Brand Fans
-
Capability Without Compromise: For drivers who love Ram’s traditional towing and payload, the REV largely maintains that level of performance while shifting toward electrification. For people who use their trucks hard—hauling, towing, working off grid—the range-extender is a smart inclusion.
-
Brand Progression: This is a signal that the Stellantis brands are serious about EVs, but with a pragmatism suited to Canadian geography and climate (where charging infrastructure can be sparse, and range matters).
-
Luxury & Tech Integration: As owners of Jeep/Chrysler/Dodge often expect premium touches (interiors, comfort, rugged-meets-refined styling), the REV delivers well in that arena. For many, this may feel like the first EV that really captures the “Ram feeling” rather than being a stripped-down, purely utilitarian electric.
-
Sustainability with Practicality: Many buyers want reduced emissions AND reliability. With an EV platform plus a fallback generator, the REV reduces “range anxiety” concerns. For fleet or commercial users, that could mean fewer worries about remote site work.
Conclusion
The 2027 Ram 1500 REV is a landmark model: it keeps the DNA of Ram’s hauling, towing, ruggedness, and adds in electric power, tech, and luxury. For fans of Ram (and related brands) who’ve been waiting for an EV pickup that doesn’t feel like it gives up on capability, the REV could be the one. It’s a statement that the future of the Ram (and more broadly Stellantis’s truck lineup) isn’t just about electric, it’s about electrified, smart, luxurious, capable.
