Today Ram offers the most fuel-efficient 4x4s and the quickest, fastest and most powerful pickup truck straight from the factory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ram will once again redefine the pickup truck segment with its revolutionary Ram 1500 BEV production model in 2024. It will be the leader in a combination of areas customers care about the most:&nbsp; range, towing, payload and charge time. More news on the production version will be available in the coming months.&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pioneering design establishes the vision for Ram\u2019s electrified future<br>The Ram 1500 Revolution BEV Concept provides a stunning vision of the ultimate pickup truck as part of the future of Ram Trucks. Ram\u2019s exterior design team set out to revolutionize the pickup truck segment by creating an ultra-modern concept that exudes heroic strength, maintains its purpose and is environmentally responsible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Ram 1500 Revolution BEV Concept features an exterior design that is strikingly \u201cbrutiful\u201d \u2013 brutal yet beautiful. An animated and modernized \u201cR-A-M\u201d badge adorns the all-new face of Ram that features a fully animated LED \u201ctuning fork\u201d design. The doors have been reimagined in a grand saloon style opening that showcases a cavernous occupant space without a B-pillar. Bright LED lights have been cleverly integrated into the front bumper flares and advancements in lighting are highlighted by fully animated LED tail lamps and badging. Building on Ram\u2019s reputation as North America\u2019s off-road and performance truck leader, the Ram 1500 Revolution BEV Concept features an integrated fascia design with a skid plate and new pivoting tow hooks that can sit flush.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Innovative features are thoughtfully integrated throughout and include a new powered frunk with one-touch open-and-close functionality that adds capability and storage. Other powered features include a powered charge-port door, situated on the driver\u2019s side front quarter panel, a powered tail gate, flush-mounted door handles, powered side steps and a powered rear step with active diffuser round out the extensive list of powered features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The concept features revolutionary sideview mirrors that are smaller, more lightweight and use 3-D printed materials for optimal aerodynamics and reducing drag. The sideview mirrors use a digital camera to capture the truck\u2019s surroundings, allowing for a smaller physical size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The charge port illuminates and blinks while charging. An audible sound will signal it\u2019s 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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Recognizable Ram design cues with added capability include a power multifunction tailgate and a larger RamBox. The acute hour-glass body design and fender wells clear 35-inch tires with a new unique design. The 1500 Revolution BEV concept features self-leveling capability and rides on 24-inch wheels with center caps that light up and stay in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These new proportions are achieved courtesy of the innovative STLA Frame EV platform on which the Ram 1500 Revolution BEV Concept is built. New intelligent safety systems and smaller, more powerful electric motors afforded the design team the ability to shift the cabin forward and increase cabin length.The 1500 Revolution BEV Concept features a cabin that is four inches longer than today\u2019s production truck for increased room and comfort while the bed length remains the same.<br>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">New interior boasts sustainable materials withnever-seen-before levels of flexibility, comfort and innovation<br>Known as a \u201cone space environment,\u201d the Ram 1500 Revolution BEV Concept utilizes one continuous space front to back that enables several different interior configurations. The \u201cone space environment\u201d theme is bolstered by a new interior layout that offers even more flexibility with room to configure a workspace or for your next adventure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A significantly more spacious interior and greater cabin length are the result of a new architecture while the battery\u2019s size allows for more cargo volume. \u201cRam Track,\u201d Ram\u2019s rail attachment\/floor track system, provides cabin flexibility for the seats and console as well as usable tie downs or other storage potential. \u201cRam Track\u201d is also incorporated in the frunk as well as the bed allowing for true flexibility from front to back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nearly 50 years ago, the Club Cab was introduced with second-row seating. Half a century later, Ram continues to build on these industry-shaping features with the 1500 BEV Concept ushering in a new feature: third row jump seats. The powered mid-gate features mounted jump seats with a removable lower section for placement in the bed or outside the vehicle. The mid-gate with powered glass enables a pass-through (and into the frunk) that can fit objects up to 18-ft. long with the tailgate closed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Seating and console flexibility was a focus with the center console\u2019s ability to be removed for even more space. If desired, the center console armrest individually converts to a workstation surface. Combined with mid-gate and jump seat options, the 1500 Revolution BEV Concept offers multiple flexible seating configurations. Lightweight seats feature integrated seatbelts, grab handles and speakers with the ability to fold-flat along with extended recline, work, conference modes and deploying the jump seats. Vastly more interior volume benefits second row and third row jump seat passengers who enjoy limo-like space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The \u201ctuning fork\u201d design is present inside the Ram 1500 Revolution BEV Concept stretching the length of the dashboard and continuing a theme line to the mid-gate. A full touchscreen display comprised of two screens offers up to 28-inches of screen space as the centerpiece of an interior loaded with advanced technology. The lower display has three different positions depending on the task at hand \u2013 minimal view, extended view and full screen view \u2013 and can be removed and used in different areas of the truck. The upper screen can also slide on the Ram rail attachment system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The rearview mirror combines leading-edge technology to improve safety and convenience. Significantly smaller than traditional truck mirrors without compromising effectiveness, the rearview mirror is packed with a range of sophisticated technologies, including a smart backup camera with 360-degree views, speakers, and receivers compatible with voice assistants such as Alexa and Siri.&nbsp; When in reverse, the camera stitches together images from various other cameras around the truck, providing the driver with a 360-degree view on the interior digital screens. This allows the driver to see their surroundings with greater clarity, helping to avoid accidents improve safety, and when backing up to a trailer. The mirror also includes a supplementary backup flood lamp which provides additional visibility when reversing the truck, which is especially useful in low light conditions. In addition to the backup camera, the rearview mirror also communicates with biometric cameras that observe the truck&#8217;s environment as it approaches objects and as it\u2019s being approached.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Digital side-view mirrors and augmented reality (AR) head-up display (HUD) highlight the onboard advanced technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A flat-top and bottom collapsible steering wheel offers enhanced hand grips with capacitive controls, digital screens and a lit \u201cRAM\u201d badge. Tactile swiping technology enables occupants to configure the sun visors or the entire electro-chromatic roof with the ability to adjust the opaqueness. The full glass roof with electro-chromatic panels and integrated roof rails features ambient lightning that\u2019s operated through the overhead console.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sustainability was a key focus during development of the Ram 1500 Revolution BEV Concept with unique and resourceful materials seen throughout the interior as a result. Examples include \u201cGreyslate Nanostone\u201d veneer that is resilient and lightweight, and \u201cApple\u201d leather, a bi-product from the apple industry that is naturally animal and cruelty free. The Ram 1500 Revolution BEV Concept also features a uniquely textured floor that is composed of recycled rubber and cork particles that enhanced durability and functionality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ram\u2019s design team wanted to showcase ideas that delivers every passenger an individualized and personalized experience that seamlessly connects them with their digital lives, as well as the other passengers. Artificial intelligence and the autonomy to enable users to work and play from anywhere were also focal points.<br>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Redefining pickup truck ownership again with leading-edge technology, connectivity and convenience<br>The Ram 1500 Revolution BEV Concept provides a glimpse into leading-edge technology, a fully connected customer experience, and advanced mobility features that deliver confidence for hardworking people every day, no matter their line of work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Ram 1500 Revolution BEV Concept delivers seamless connectivity to transform the experience for the driver and passengers. The Concept creates a connected hub that brings a consumer\u2019s digital lifestyle into the vehicle, using advanced technology to create a customized space for each occupant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some unique technology features on the Ram 1500 Revolution BEV Concept vehicle include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Vehicle Personal Assistant \u2013&nbsp;Artificial Intelligence (AI)-powered virtual assistant that enhances in-vehicle and exterior interaction with users.

This voice-activated feature can be useful in situations where the driver needs to move a short distance and doesn&#8217;t want to get back in the truck, such as when picking up tools or equipment from a job site. The truck will follow the driver at a safe distance, using sensors and camera technology to navigate around obstacles. This innovation increases efficiency making the job easier and more convenient<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My Day &#8211;&nbsp;Intelligent trip planning based on users\u2019 schedule and preferences to provide suggestions at right time and right location<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cabin Mode &#8211;&nbsp;Cabin Modes are \u201cone button\u201d settings that adjust multiple aspects of the cabin experience at once, based on the use case.
