Ram is embracing electric technology, and while the new 1500 Ramcharger certainly doesn't offer unlimited electric range, it could well be a solid option.
The Ram brand is finally taking an electrified approach, and by resurrecting the Ramcharger name, no less. Alongside the new 2025 Ram 1500, the company has unveiled the new 2025 Ram 1500 Ramcharger, a new plug-in hybrid that Ram touts as offering “unlimited battery electric range.”
Recommended Videos The plug-in approach It’s perhaps a smart move. Electric trucks show a lot of promise — but they start to falter a little when it comes to things like towing and hauling heavy loads. Keeping the 1500 Ramcharger a hybrid means that with no load or light ones, the truck can zip around town on electric power — and when necessary, it can switch the engine on to tow or haul.
According to Ram, the new truck offers a 92-kilowatt-hour battery pack with an onboard 130kW generator, which powers the 250kW front motor and 238kW rear motor. All this combines into a truck that can reach 60 miles per hour in 4.4 seconds, thanks to its 663-horsepower performance and 615 lb-ft of torque.
So what about the actual range? Well, unfortunately Ram doesn’t mention what the battery can deliver on a single charge. It does note that customers will be able to add 50 miles of all-electric range in around 10 minutes at the maximum charging speed of 145kW. We also don’t know if it’s even possible to use the truck in an electric-only mode .
