Stellantis Presents a new look at the Ram 1500 EV concept truck recently, which will be available in the 2023 model. It features a design template for the upcoming production that highlights stark lighting and careful design on the exterior. It is described by Stellantis as "brutiful," a portmanteau of "brutal yet beautiful."
The concept design has an animated RAM grille logo accent with entirely animated LED tail lamps and badging. Additional details include the side view mirrors that have been 3D-printed in order to reduce weight. Beneath the car's hood, the Ram has a dual-motor AWD and four-wheel steering that is designed with up to 15 degrees of articulation. There has yet to be confirmation about the battery size but the system will function on 800V architecture.
