- The Ram 1500 Rev has been confirmed as the name of the company’s first electric pickup truck.
- The concept version of the truck that was revealed at CES 2023 was originally called the Ram 1500 Revolution BEV.
- The Rev will go into production next year, and Ram says it’ll share more details this Sunday, Feb. 12.
Ram has significantly shortened the official name of its first electric pickup, which is slated to start production next year. While the concept version was originally called the Ram 1500 Revolution BEV, the brand has condensed it down to the Ram 1500 Rev.
Other than what we already know about the concept, today’s news is only notable because of the name. Thankfully, the world won’t have to wait too long to learn more details, as Ram says it plans to release more information this Sunday, Feb. 12. Could it be a surprise addition to the slew of Super Bowl commercials? Stay tuned.
Rev is most likely short for Revolution, however, it also sounds like the verb used to describe the revolution of an internal-combustion motor. Perhaps it’s a double entendre that pays tribute to both traditional gas-powered Ram trucks from the past as well as the future that’s potentially full electron-fueled pickups.
It’s still likely a few months before the Ram 1500 Rev is officially revealed to the world. It’s presence at this year’s Chicago auto show gave us an opportunity to see the concept version up close. Not only is it more immense in person than in photos, but its open-air interior— with its sort-of third-row seats—offers a tantalizing look at potential design and tech features for the production version.
Sure, the concept’s entirely glass roof, coach doors, and nonexistent B pillar are probably pure fantasy, but we expect the real electric Ram to have more than a few innovative features. Now we just have to wait and see what what they’ll be.
