exactly my point.
When you figure the size of the tank needed on the new RamCharger to get close to 700 miles of range....what's the point of making it hybrid when the v6 does it already.
In the midwest, I have ZERO interest in an EV that won't give me 500 miles MINIMUM in less than ideal conditions.
Would I lease one that can get 400? Maybe, but I'm sure as **** not buying one.
A hybrid that can do 700? MAYBE, but not at a price tag of $75k that is going to need 27 gal of gas to get there.
While price is the big question, remember that the RamCharger can boast things a V6* Ram never could:
Highest payload and towing of any 1500 ever, tied (with REV) for second quickest Ram ever and tied for the quickest of those that’ll still be for sale, able to drive with zero gas for most people’s daily commute, able to power an entire home in the event of a power outage. A V6 Ram doesn’t do any of that already.
Frankly, the RamCharger makes a lot more sense than the REV. Who needs a 500 mile EV when in daily use, that’s way more range than most will need, and when they DO need range (roadtrips, for instance) the charge for the next 500 miles could take hours, versus minutes for a full tank of gas.
* pedants, don’t start!
