Thank you for an in depth review that is organized and well put together! I'm very excited for this truck!!
Geez, I would need to pack a lunch waiting for the frunk to open.
Ford lightning does not start in mid 50s anymore. With the latest price bump, the base PRO trim starts almost at $60k.
Having said that, if this base model starts around $60k, and really meets the 350 miles range mark, its still a better deal.
I am putting my stakes on both these, plus Avalanche EV ... fingers crossed ..
Bro pointed out a 5k discrepancy. You should have your own channel w all that wisdom.
@@snakegs4203 Whats your channel name? Mean snake? Grow up buddy!
Nah dude I’ve seen every single lightning at 75k or more, dealerships are raising the price due to “shortages”
@@cesarpac3723dealers create those shortages themselves. They have parking lots full of trucks in turn artificially keeping prices high. Screw dealers in the p**sy.
@@cesarpac3723buy your truck in Canada… by law dealers can’t sell new over msrp but once it’s a demo they can do whatever they want…
Your typical truck buyer that’s always want flashy, hence why the lightning sells incredibly well. Ram did the right thing with the styling
will prob start at $80k by the time its for sale
Looking at 100K
@@andersonrodriguez8258 Certainly after markups
I see 115k once the mark-ups is added from dealerships
Keep dreaming the battery alone keeps it in the 100k+ territory
More than you can afford, pal. RAM
As usual Ram takes the prize for a classy beautifully appointed interior.
Even Santa Claus was interested in this thing 8:30
Great work on the introduction to this new truck!
It's still the best interior in its class!! Good job 👏🏽
That’s right 🥰
Yep! I agree
NOPE
I'm so sick of hearing people talk about how this truck is "generic" or that it's a "missed opportunity" that it isn't "unique" enough. RAM is making this truck for us truck people, not for you EV sports car people. Yes its electric but it's made to be a pickup truck. RAM knows who buys their pickups and it's not the eco-conscience, sci-fi dweebs that think driving an EV is saving the planet. This vehicle was made for pickup truck drivers. I have been driving RAM trucks for most of my life and I have to say I love this new one. It's exactly what we want, a pickup truck that is electric, that's it! Simple. That's exactly what we want.
100% agree. That's why Tesla did so well with Model S, they were the first EV manufacturer who made a car that was electric, instead of making something "futuristic" and "unique" which really just meant ugly. That's also where they will fail with Cybertruck, sure lots of people will buy one (if it ever makes it to market) but far more people will want to just buy a truck, that happens to be electric.
This is actually a nice look truck. Doesn't look like an EV at all.
How did you keep a straight face when Santa just straight up opened the door in the middle of your shot??😅
You do great reviews. Your words flow like water from a tap. I bought the Lightning Pro on your recommendation. Love the truck and price. Keep up the good work. 👍
Not what i was expecting after seeing the concept, but still lookks great. Glad i was able to reserve one.
I like that it just looks like a truck. my biggest complaint with EV cars and trucks is they make them "standout", I like that it blends in and no one can tell it's a EV vehicle
WOW. Love it.
I love that truck. It is by far my favorite EV truck of them all.
Favorite channel on TH-cam!
RAM has done such a nice job with their pickup trucks this last generation. Really giving Ford a run for their money.
Man I really wanted the doors to open like the show truck.. Oh well :/ Great presentation dude, thanks!
It’s pretty nice! I like the speakers 🔊 in the back seats! I like the passenger display
Sweet!!!!!!!!!!
Nice, 23 speakers 😮
@@morriswalton9343 I know right
@@morriswalton9343 yes
Nice job. I think the traditional look could be a plus to the traditional buyers.
cant believe my dad is planning to buy this beast
Concept's design was gorgeous. This doesn't do it for many.
awesome!!
I prefer this style. I like Rams because they have a classic look that’s not gimmicky like most trucks and cars currently being produced.
Great presentation 👍🏻
Did they lose the fold down midgate? Aside from the gas engine range extender, I was looking forward to the midgate the most!
Nice color
am waiting for the realease of this truck, i need to buy it and give it a lift due to the bad roads in Nigeria. Its very luxurious. I love the executive feel of the interior.
This is the next-gen Ram 1500
Its pretty cool, i put the 100 bucks down but not sure if ill end up getting one
Get the eff out my shot Santa 😂
I feel an EV version of a Ford Maverick sized truck would be perfect
these full size arent going to be used for much actual 'truck' use with battery limits, so they may as well go small
if they offer a soundgenerator with the 5,7l hemi V8 i gonna buy it 😊
I am sure there is EV TRX in the mix soon after. We told Ralph (Gillis) our disappointment in not allowing the concept to production.
Considering the weight of the truck do they extra capacity load range tires?
most tires are well above what the car weighs, and trucks were never light in the first place
Am I high or was that frunk hell slow lol
It’s definitely slow but I’m guessing you’re also high.
My hope is that the show truck was not representative of the final version on that, I can't imagine that would get past any real world testing, I'm not waiting that long to load my groceries!
Great review. I've had a Ram 1500 for the last 10 years and I'm anxiously awaiting availability and pricing on these for my next purchase. I personally like how they're carrying over the more traditional look. Some of the 'unique' designs coming on market these days are a little too unique in most cases, especially for the majority of individuals in the pickup segment. Fingers crossed I don't have to sell an organ to buy one in a few years.
Same here...believe it or not, this is their bread and butter. They sell these and Jeeps. Just amazing to me how people can afford it.
I’m curious if i wont to install bed cap on the truck bed
. Haw i can . when the side truck open the boxes .
This truck is designed to stay open bed with not cover
Google rambox tonneau cover. There are plenty of options. The rambox is not new for this version, Ram's been doing them for a few years now on their gas pickups.
Not all models will come with the ram box, this is the top of the line trim.
Did he happen to mention how many miles it would get towing?
Question: Generator.
Will the RAM REV be able to serve as a backup generator for a home like the Ford Lightning?
Yes. It's supposed to have V2V, V2L, and V2G technologies.
Ram has done an excellent job keeping its EV Ram pickup truck traditional which I like … nothing crazy or out of the ordinary because I didn’t like the Honda Ridgeline like Ram concept. This is a real truck just an EV. Good job, Ram!
Nope. ram IS FUCKING DEAD AND CHEVY IS LIVING SOOOOOOOOOO
I know you brought up the design, but a more conservative design will help make this truck appeal to the average gas/deisel truck owner.
I don't mind the looks of this truck. After hearing all of the range anxiety that the Ford lighting gets due to the towing. I just don't trust the towing. I myself have a 2019 Ram Limited w/etorque. Beautiful truck though.
Will it have ram air to raise and lower?
Yes
I preferred the concept this is bland
I mean it has to conform to the industry standards
@@bryanlindsay3261 industry standards are bland
@@Allendude51 but they *are* safe
Agree... Chevy did the best with their EV Truck
Rolling pile of junk.
Remember when people use to buy trucks for work?
Most people on here aren't that old. You're talking the 80s or earlier!
A Klipsch audio system, that’s a W in my book 👍🏾
brand means nothing if they tune it wrong. my JBL sound system was worse than base model before i tuned it
I don't see anything discernibly 'Klipsch' except for the name (which the host couldn't pronounce). There's a nod toward horn tweeters in the shape of the A-pillar tweeter bezel, but they look like ordinary domes to me, not horns. I guarantee whatever's behind those other speaker grilles are your basic dual-cone, paper-and-foam speakers.
Ram had already said the concept they released is what it will eventually look like in the future…not what the 25 will look like LOL… it keeps being said, they didn’t bring this and didn’t do that from the concept
I am little skeptical about the higher range v/s bigger battery equation. Bigger battery does not always equals to proportionally higher range. They need to consider the weight of the bigger batteries as well as the energy and time needed to charge those. They might be able to reduce time with 350kwh architecture, but what about the energy? Its still gonna need that ~120kwh + energy everytime you charge from 10-80% ...
Will this succeed what Ford couldn’t do? I hope so cause the Ford Lightning jacked up the price, making it impossible for us average consumer to purchase.
Dealerships already salivating over the markups they'll drop on these.
this is already a dodge, there's no chance this ends up cheaper than ford at the dealership
I havent seen an electric car that I like yet. Lol
If the base work truck model starts anywhere below $60k, they'll destroy the Ford Lightning (since it would have a standard range of ~350 miles). Good job to RAM!
Will this vehicle offer the new version of Apple CarPlay that’s launching later this year?
Why? If yes then you gonna buy it because of that?
@@amg500sl5 75% of people say they won't consider a new vehicle without screen mirroring technology.
The conventional look is a plus it is not a detriment. The vast majority of buyers in this segment don't want a fast and furious vehicle. They want a truck that looks like a truck
this is giving the Lightning a run for its money
Correction: surpassed it.
@@krane15 100% Even the RAM1500 is way better than the regular F150.
Without knowing what its money is, we really don't know!
I for one am NOT dissapointed that this model looks more like a regular truck than the one form Vegas. I think the RAM people as well as Ford are smart to make them look this way rather than the ridiculous contraptions like the Silverado with those fins. I also have no desire for everyone around me to be staring at this thing.
Definitely better than the F150 Lightning
But at what cost?
Imagine how many PHEV batteries we can manufacture in place of one mountrous EV pickup battery
About 10. This things 168kwh. Average phev 13 to 15.
@@NoodlesExtraMSG so like 4 Nissan leafs
there's an option for about 230kwh so make that 6 leafs
@@DrRyan82994 yes, thank you for doing the actual math. BEV's, at least for now, should relegated to smaller sized vehicles until the next big leap in battery tech.
Well this has an unnecessarily large battery and garbage efficiency even for an EV truck
@@nothere572 almost like ev trucks are just a bad idea
How about something where it makes it safer for the rest of us in a head on with one of these?
im sure this has plenty of crumple, ram isnt well know for their own safety
Looks like the lightning in the rear kinda sad
I own a ev6 with only a 77kw battery. It is on the emp platform with 800v charging capabilities. Even at a 350kw fast charger it still takes an hour to fully charge. This beast will take 5 hours to charge at a fast charger with that massive top tier 200+ kw battery pack.
It should only take 18min in optimal condition. easily done under 25min at most times.
@@YTYTYTY7 that’s what they say under optimal conditions 18 mins for a 77kw battery to charge from 10% -80%. Real world is more like 30 mins. I’ve never had a 350kw fast charger go past 230kw of power being delivered.
This would make an excellent case for finding a way to install a 240v charger at home to just plug it there instead of waiting to completely drain. For road trips is going to require extra planning and loads of luck to find those 350kw chargers.
@@littlebigbrother7279 230kw was max for me too. In summer, I was able to get 18min charging a few times.
sure, if you charge to 100% it will take an hour (or more), but if you're smart about it you won't do that. charge to 80% and continue your trip. It will take under half an hour.
For this truck, it will probably take 45 mins to get to 80%. Keep in mind that bigger batteries can charge faster and hold that higher rate for longer without ramping down.
wat about the hummer ev
what about it? It's a $200k vehicle, I sure hope this isn't trying to compete in that market, I doubt it will sell well up at that price point.
Its 14 inches of screen not 12
Yes… Another electric vehicle the average person can’t afford.
After seeing this Ram, I wish they'd never showed us the concept Ram, this looks like the Ram 5 years ago, only an EV variant, I feel disappointed 😔
Where’s the gas one
At your local Ram dealer. The company has been selling gas powered pickups since 1914.
What happen to the concept model? Not really in to it anymore.
Electric truck bigger horsepower than gasoline more expensive to pay for
If the base battery can consistently get 300 miles of normal driving, they won't be able to build them fast enough. And 500 mile range for the extended battery sounds like a month worth of suburban driving. Now all they gotta do is keep the stealerships from dropping a 40k markup on top of MSRP.
Yep. Seems like every dealership these days are adding "market adjustment " to their vehicles. I will not pay a dime over msrp. Ive passed on about 30 vehicles lately due to Mark up prices. If everyone not give in to their bs they'd stop this nonsense. Unfortunately there are suckers out there.
That 500empg will be at least 100k
@@Transit_my-waynot all dealers are like that. I work at a Jeep dealer and we just sold the last hellcat red eye that we’ll ever get our hands on for under MSRP
@@SuperGangste that's great. It seems that those honest dealers are few and far between. I have been shopping for months for a transit van and all that I've contacted so far have a "market adjustment " added to price. Bunch of crooks. I refuse to pay any mark ups based on principle. I'm very patient.
@@Transit_my-way stay patient, when the market collapses (inflation will find its limits soon) make sure to stick it to them and buy outright so they get no interest
This looks so much better than the concept!
$75k to $100k price range its crazy! Inflation is making innovative vehicles out of reach for the average people.
thats before dealer markups, this is going to end up a collectors item
And let me guess will cost around 70k???
More like $100,000+markups..
I'm surprised RAM doesn't include a power steering wheel on a truck of this level. This is the second time RAM has released a flagship truck with a manual adjustable steering wheel. The seats look incredible, but I couldn't tell if one of those 24-ways adjustments was for thigh support. Those thing matter for us 6+ guys with long femurs.
Please tell me there's a way to turn off the gaudy lighted logo?
I’d assume it’s similar to the grand Wagoneer seats where you can adjust the thigh support
@@SuperGangste You can clearly see the separation gap on those. That's not showing with these
I'm sure I can turn off the logo. I have wire cutters.
Trucks were already expensive now that they are evs the will be unattainable. Lol
0:11 2025 RAM 1500 not 2024.
7.2 in the rear 😂
Nothing like inflation to wreck most peoples chances to come close to getting one of these
Uhhh what happened to the design? 😮
Have you ever seen a concept vehicle that made it to production? I haven't.
This won’t sell like the Ford lightning
Why not?
Without pricing it's hard to tell, but based on the numbers they've shown so far, if they can keep the price within 10k of the lightning Ford should be pretty scared!
Hype Vs Reality
The problem with the larger EVs are the issue of weight effecting efficiency and use case. Meaning if I want an electric vehicle that is less aerodynamic and larger than a sedan to have the same range as a sedan, then I need to give it a larger battery pack. The problem with a larger battery pack is the increased vehicle weight. When you significantly increase the weight of a vehicle you run into the issue of it being too heavy for most roads and bridges. Then in the USA their is the issue of vehicle weight being tied to specific types of driver licenses and insurance types.
how do electric cars do in hot countries like 50 degrees celsius?
In general, much better than gasoline vehicles as cooling isn't as much of an issue.
Why would anyone that requires 14,000 lb towing need a push button 'electric tailgate' function? WTF?
Not everybody that tows is a ruffian. May people tow boats, or trailers/horse trailer, etc.
I'm torn between the 2023 Chevy Colorado and the 2023 Toyota Tacoma. Anyone have opinions?
I'm leaning Colorado atm.
While I’m not a huge GM fan, the Colorado seems like a better buy over the Tacoma. Modern platform and better options.
Toyota is known for best reliability. Id suggest it over a Chevy for sure.
Tacoma.
@@insainllama cap. The Colorado is a truck on a car frame
What's the relevance to this video? You're responding to a review of a future electric vehicle from one brand to ask about 2 current gasoline vehicles by different manufacturers in a different market segment?
I like it but with batteries that large this thing is going to have a crazy weight... probably heavier than the Hummer EV. Heavier weight EVs are terrible for tires, and you'll have to replace tires far more frequently which will be pricey.
لا إله إلا الله محمد رسول الله
WTF ! RAM ... Make it like the Concept Our DON"T MAKE AT ALL!!!
Have you EVER seen a concept car make it to production? I haven't!
@@Green__one yes the viper the prowler and the gen 1 ram...
For him is a lot of space because he is very small man
I wonder how the Germans dont have a Frunk...
This is definitely not going to go 500 miles on a single charge LMAO
Based on what? The numbers they give for battery size, drag coefficient, and range all match up and make sense for that range. So what do you think you know that their engineers who have been doing real world testing don't?
In dealers by the end of next year? Oh right.
500 miles range... Sure, whatever you say, buddy.
Considering some other companies' vapourware, this one's actually pretty believable!
@@Green__one I'll believe it when I see it. I suspect that by "in dealers" *maybe* a demo unit in select stores where you can look at one.
@@TheKingOfInappropriateComments some companies don't even want to do that after the cars are in sale.
Diesel hibrid the best
6:18 what’s wrong with that panel 🤢
And we just thought Chrysler products had electric gremlins before 😂
I was thinking the same thing, if they can't get TIPMs to work properly without going haywire IDK how they'll build a full EV that doesn't go berserk with electric problems
People seem to like the concept vehicle better. I personally don’t like it. I think EVs being a tough sell right now making a vehicle that isn’t much different than the ICE version is a smart choice and likely to get the most buyers currently. I don’t believe the concept would have sold as many units. Too futuristic too soon. Look at the lighting. Not that much different than the ICE F-150.
What's to get excited for? These vehicles are out of the price range for most people😅.
No more 5.7 Hemi
That thing is long dead. Replaced by the inline 6. Remember, V8s are going away.
Not feeling the front end.
I don't mind it, but it's not as good as a regular Ram. I understand why, it's both aerodynamics, and the "look at me" light up badging, but I do wish they could have done better.
Over promised and under delivered.
