2025 Ram 1500 Ramcharger with a target range of 690 miles goes official

2025 Ram 1500 Ramcharger has been officially unveiled delivering "the industry's best combination of range, towing, and payload." The vehicle has a targeted range of up to 690 miles. It features a liquid-cooled 92 kWh battery paired with an onboard 130 kW generator. The battery pack features a design that incorporates the pack efficiently with a pouch cell format in a parallel configuration. Ramcharger's battery is positioned under the floor in the center of the truck and maintains a flat floor. Ram offers customers a quick and convenient recharging solution with the ability to add up to 50 miles of all-electric range in approximately 10 minutes with 400-volt DC fast charging at up to 145 kW.

Vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-home bi-directional charging affords the Ram 1500 Ramcharger the flexibility to charge another Stellantis battery-electric vehicle or provide power back to the grid. With Ram's mission being Built to Serve our customers, the truck can also send power to a home during a storm, run the tailgate party or provide power at the camp or job site. An onboard power panel in the bed can provide up to 7.2 kW.

2025 Ram 1500 Ramcharger is fitted with two rear electric drive modules (EDMs). A 250 kW unit on the front and a 238 kW unit on the rear for a system total of 663 horsepower and 615 lb.-ft. of torque. The vehicle's 0-60 mph acceleration is 4.4 seconds. The EDMs combine the motor, gearbox and inverter along with all-wheel-drive capability. The EDM on the front axle has an automatic wheel-end disconnect that allows the front wheels to spin freely in certain conditions, maximizing efficiency. The EDM on the rear axle has an available electronic-locking rear differential.

Power flows in sequence from the 3.6-liter V-6 engine to the on-board 130-kW generator. The engine generates mechanical power that is converted to electrical power by the generator. The electrical power can be used to charge the battery when the battery is depleted or if the driver wants to preserve the battery power. It can also be applied to the high-voltage bus where the EDMs can use the generator electrical power plus the battery electrical power to provide maximum power to the wheels. There is no direct mechanical path from the engine to the wheels.

The 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 engine is adapted for the specific mission of powering the onboard generator, with unique packaging to make room for the front EDM. The onboard generator mounts directly to the engine while a power inverter module mounts on the vehicle and connects to a junction box.

The 2025 Ram 1500 Ramcharger uses the all-new STLA Frame platform and is designed specifically for full-size electric vehicles featuring a body-on-frame design. The all-new high-strength steel frame is comprised of advanced materials to be lightweight, yet stiff and durable. The STLA Frame is wider in the middle to efficiently incorporate the battery pack while still using protection afforded by the frame rails.

Drivers will enjoy class-leading ride and handling, a multi-link independent rear suspension with standard, segment-exclusive, active-level, four-corner air suspension. The adjustable air suspension enables five different modes: entry/exit, aero, normal, off-road 1 and off-road 2. The truck is capable of towing up to 14,000 lbs. with a class 5 hitch and a best-in-class maximum payload capacity of 2,625 pounds.

Autonomous Drive Assist System (ADAS) vehicle capabilities include Hands-free Highway Assist (L2+) offering hands-off driving at all speeds and lane centering on approved roadways for even greater driving convenience. The system will predictively slow the vehicle down in tight curves, automatically resume control after driver override and verify that the driver is paying attention to the road. Autonomous parallel and perpendicular parking assist is also available and uses multiple sensors, including radars and cameras, to dictate appropriate roads for the technology.

2025 Ram 1500 Ramcharger features a unique blend of exterior styling that incorporates the new themes seen in the Ram 1500 gas-powered truck and the Ram 1500 REV all-electric vehicle. Ramcharger telegraphs the bold presence Ram is known for through a modern design aesthetic. A large, forward-leaning grille features subtle styling differences and a prominent R-A-M badge. The Ram 1500 Ramcharger embraces a modern, body-color front fascia to differentiate it from the rest of the light-duty lineup while maintaining Ram's DNA.

A drawn body-side character line stretches from front to rear, tying together the front fender, cab doors and bed fenders for a consistent horizontal profile. The bed and cab are sub-flush to reduce aerodynamic disturbances. The charge port has been thoughtfully placed on the driver's side front quarter panel and, when plugged in, the R-A-M badge pulsates to indicate the charging status. An audible sound signals the Ram 1500 Ramcharger is plugged in and charging has begun. The charge port features Level 1 and Level 2 AC charging on the top half and DC fast charging on the bottom half of the charger.

Moving to the back of the Ram 1500 Ramcharger, an all-new power tailgate and a new, modern and contemporary R-A-M badge are unique to the lineup. Like the front, the rear of the Ram 1500 Ramcharger features an all-new, EV-specific, premium LED taillight design that spans onto the tailgate, indicating it is an electric Ram truck.

As the truck's backbone, the Ram 1500 Ramcharger enjoys the same usability of the truck bed as its gasoline-powered counterpart with the capability of carrying plywood and drywall with ease. The new 2025 Ram 1500 Ramcharger offers the best lockable bed storage in the segment with the unique and convenient RamBox, featuring a 115-volt outlet. RamBox is illuminated, highly versatile, weatherproof, lockable and includes drain plugs on the bottom of the storage bins.

Ram Truck has long been the benchmark for pickup truck interiors and the 2025 Ram 1500 Ramcharger is the latest in line to feature an interior with authentic, premium materials that are both comfortable and durable. The interior design team focused on premium textures, colors, materials and continuing to enhance functionality for unexpected luxury throughout. Authentic and premium materials include carbon fiber, metal and leather elements that combine to deliver a level of luxury only seen in a Ram truck.

A host of leading-edge technology features has been incorporated into the segment's defining interior, including the advanced Uconnect 5 system with a new 14.5-inch touchscreen, 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, a segment-first 10.25-inch passenger screen, digital rearview mirror, Head-up Display (HUD) and a Klipsch Reference Premiere audio system.

The 2025 Ram 1500 Ramcharger uses performance-tuned software to pre-configure and distinguish five dynamic modes – Auto, Sport, Tow, Snow and Off-road – enabling drivers to choose a vehicle setting that ideally meets their requirements and ambient conditions. The drive modes separately control the drive system, accelerator response, regen level, suspension and steering.

The most technologically advanced Ram 1500 ever offers a host of leading-edge features incorporated into the segment's defining interior, including the advanced Uconnect 5 system with a new 14.5-inch touchscreen, 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, a segment-first 10.25-inch passenger screen, digital rearview mirror and a HUD. The Uconnect 5 system offers even more connected services and features for unmatched ease of use.
