1500 Ramcharger in Thurmont, MD

A common misconception is that electric powertrains and reliability are mutually exclusive. The 2025 Ram 1500 Ramcharger shows exactly why this is false, offering drivers electric efficiency, work-ready muscle, traditional gas-vehicle range, and an array of utility features.

Electrified Muscle Meets Utility in the 2025 Ram 1500 Ramcharger

Unique Electric Powertrain

A first-of-its-kind electric propulsion system powers the Ram 1500 Ramcharger, incorporating two electric motors, a 91-kWh lithium-ion battery, and an onboard generator. The generator converts mechanical energy produced by an onboard 3.6L Pentastar V6 into electricity, which is then sent to a power bus. Electricity from the power bus can be used to charge the high-voltage battery or supplement the electric motors, depending on the situation. Together, the setup generates a maximum of 663 horsepower and 615 lb-ft of torque.

Best-in-Class Towing and Hauling Capabilities

The powertrain’s immense output translates to a best-in-class towing capacity of 14,000 lbs and a best-in-class max payload rating of 2,625 lbs. Instantaneous torque delivery to all four wheels provides a sharp throttle response, which allows drivers to tow heavy loads comfortably in urban areas and sprint to 60 mph in just 4.4 seconds on the open road.

Reliable Driving Range

With the generator actively recharging the battery on the go, the pickup truck is capable of driving up to 690 miles. This beats the maximum range of most gas-powered and electric vehicles on the market.

You can also recharge the Ram 1500 Ramcharger’s battery by connecting the vehicle to an external charger like a traditional EV. The pickup truck is equipped to handle both AC and DC chargers, so you can choose the charging speed based on your situation. A DC fast charger adds 50 miles of range in only 10 minutes.

Convenient Backup Power

If work calls from where the grid is unavailable, you don’t need to carry a generator with you; the Ram 1500 Ramcharger offers multiple outlets to power equipment using energy from the high-voltage battery. The truck features a 115-volt, 400-watt outlet on the driver side of the bed, among many others.

The pickup truck can also directly power your home to keep the appliances running during a grid failure. With the battery fully charged, the Ram 1500 Ramcharger can power your home for up to 30 days.

Hands-Free Active Driving Assist

The Ram 1500 Ramcharger’s semi-autonomous driving mode, Hands-Free Active Driving Assist, comes in handy when traveling hundreds of miles on interstate highways. Once activated, drivers can safely take their hands off the wheel and observe the road as the Ram 1500 Ramcharger self-drives, maintaining a safe distance from other vehicles.

The Ram 1500 Ramcharger is a top choice for drivers who refuse to choose between efficiency, muscle, and utility. Contact us at Criswell CDJR of Thurmont in Thurmont, MD to learn more about the pickup truck’s features, trim levels, and warranties.
