The new unibody pickup is focused on expanding the brand\u2019s efforts in the South American market, a job that is currently being relayed on by a rebadged version of the Fiat Toro.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Project 291 will resurrect the Ram 1200 nameplate once it hits showrooms. You may recall the Ram 1200 name was fitted to a rebadged version of the Mitsubishi Triton for distribution in the Middle-East region. It was discontinued after the 2019 model year.&nbsp;<\/p><div class=\"autoestrada-nel-contenuto autoestrada-entity-placement\" id=\"autoestrada-790486153\" style=\"position: relative;padding: 30px;border: 2px solid red;margin: 25px auto 35px;text-align: center;width: fit-content;\"><div class=\"autoestrada-adlabel\">Advertising<\/div><div id=\"autoestrada-4077606179\"><!-- START ADVERTISER: from tradedoubler.com -->\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\nvar uri = 'https:\/\/impfr.tradedoubler.com\/imp?type(img)g(25346028)a(2263928)' + new String (Math.random()).substring (2, 11);\r\ndocument.write('<a href=\"https:\/\/clk.tradedoubler.com\/click?p=289682&a=2263928&g=25346028\" target=\"_BLANK\"><img src=\"'+uri+'\" border=0><\\\/a>');\r\n<\/script>\r\n<!-- END ADVERTISER: from tradedoubler.com --><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new truck will be built at the Jeep plant in Pernambuco, Brazil, and will be based on the Stellantis Small Wide 4\u00d74 architecture that currently underpins vehicles like the Fiat Toro, Jeep Compass, and the new 7-passenger Jeep Commander. Using a formula similar to the new Commander when compared to the Compass, the Ram 1200 will be both wider and longer than the Fiat Toro. It is believed that the same engineering team who worked on the new Commander, is working on the new Ram 1200.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There will be at least two different powertrains available at the vehicle\u2019s launch: an updated version of the 2.0-litre Tigershark inline-four-cylinder which will now be equipped with a turbocharger. The reason for the Tigershark upgrade is due to its ability to accept ethanol, a popular choice of fuel for the Brazilian market. The engine should be rated above 200 horsepower and be mated to a ZF-sourced 9-speed automatic transmission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The other available powertrain will be the proven 2.2-litre Multijet II turbodiesel inline-four-cylinder engine. Power is rated at 203 horsepower, and the engine will also be linked to a ZF-sourced 9-speed automatic transmission. The engine made its debut on the Jeep Cherokee in Europe back in 2015, but will also find itself in&nbsp;the upcoming Fiat Toro SUV coming in 2024. Both powertrains should have four-wheel drive (4\u00d74) as standard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new Ram 1200 should be arriving in dealership showrooms sometime in late 2023 as a 2024 model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" data-id=\"44512\" src=\"https:\/\/autoestrada.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/RAM-1200-001.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-44512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/autoestrada.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/RAM-1200-001.jpg 600w, https:\/\/autoestrada.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/RAM-1200-001-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Spy shot of secretly tested future car<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" data-id=\"44516\" src=\"https:\/\/autoestrada.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/RAM-1200-002.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-44516\" srcset=\"https:\/\/autoestrada.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/RAM-1200-002.jpg 600w, https:\/\/autoestrada.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/RAM-1200-002-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Spy shot of secretly tested future car<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" data-id=\"44520\" src=\"https:\/\/autoestrada.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/RAM-1200-003.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-44520\" srcset=\"https:\/\/autoestrada.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/RAM-1200-003.jpg 600w, https:\/\/autoestrada.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/RAM-1200-003-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Spy shot of secretly tested future car<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" data-id=\"44524\" src=\"https:\/\/autoestrada.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/RAM-1200-005.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-44524\" srcset=\"https:\/\/autoestrada.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/RAM-1200-005.jpg 600w, https:\/\/autoestrada.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/RAM-1200-005-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Spy shot of secretly tested future car<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AUTOMEDIA<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>These are the first spy shots of RAM\u2019s all-new 1200, widely known as the Project 291.
