Saw something that highlighted Ram video stating the V6 will run all the time to charge the battery.. Doesn't that defeat the purpose. Hopefully can be of until his the recharge threshold.

There are different modes. It will run full EV if you want it to.

It's a hybrid with a full EV mode. The v6 is a generator, in theory it charges faster then it is driven per the specs so far so. Should be able to do full EV until it's at like 20% then let it charge I suspect.

It will be nice to have the generator, instead of getting stranded with no juice left.

Anyone that gets "stranded" because their EV runs out of battery deserves it for being stupid and not planning better. It's not hard to figure out range.

Same thing as getting stranded with no fuel. Harder to find places to "fill up" but they knew it when they bought it.
