2026 Ram 1500 REV
Stellantis is reassessing its product strategy and will discontinue development of a full-size electric pickup. The 1500 REV is an extended-range electric vehicle, meaning it uses its V6 engine to generate electricity via a 130-kW generator, rather than directly using the engine to move the vehicle. It uses a large 92-kWh battery pack to store the energy. The generator can supplement the battery when extra power is needed. Peak output is 647 horsepower. More importantly, Ram claims the REV has a 2,625-pound maximum payload capacity and 14,000-pound maximum tow capacity. The truck can be used as a home generator in the case of a power outage. It shares many familiar styling cues and features with the freshened Ram 1500, but its powertrain makes this version unique.The 1500 REV will be available with a hands-free driver assist system. It will go on sale in 2026.

About Ram
In our road tests, compared to other full-sized pickups, the Ram 1500 is exceptionally comfortable. It has coil-spring suspension that cushions the ride against rough roads, and a large cabin that’s as quiet as those we’ve found in expensive luxury cars. Compared to many other vehicles, its screens and controls are exceptionally simple and intuitive to operate. Outside of the cabin, Ram’s trucks will meet most professional’s requirements for moving things like lumber or heavy equipment, though competitors like Ford and Chevrolet have higher tow ratings. New Ram trucks sit in the middle of our reliability ratings. Used Ram trucks score on the low end for reliability.
