Back in January, RAM unveiled the newest member of its lineup and the next installment in its electrified fleet of vehicles. That new model is the 2024 RAM ProMaster EV, an all-electric version of the popular work van. This new electric vehicle offers everything fans of the ProMaster nameplate have come to expect from the cargo van, with the added benefit of having an electric powertrain. This could be a huge benefit for those who operate in a small area, as you’ll be much less impacted by range and charging time. Regardless, the ProMaster EV has impressive specs & features in those two areas and beyond. “The introduction of the RAM ProMaster EV represents another major milestone in our electrification journey as we continue to evolve without sacrificing capability. RAM’s first available electric vehicle is a game-changer, offering commercial customers, large and small, the ultimate van in zero-emissions performance, commercial capability and advanced technology.” - Tim Kuniskis, Chief Executive Officer, RAM Brand - Stellantis Electric Powertrain The electric powertrain underpinning the all-new ProMaster EV includes a standard 110-kWh battery pack that is hypothesized to deliver up to 162 miles of city driving range. The battery pack is tethered to a 200-kW electric drive module making the van capable of generating up to 268 horsepower alongside 302 pound-feet of torque. Those two things combined translate to a maximum payload of 3,020 pounds for the cargo models and 2,030 lbs. for the delivery variant. When it comes to charging, the RAM ProMaster EV will be capable of Level 3 DC fast charging with several different options, including 50 kW, 85 kW, 125 kW and 150 kW. For Level 2 home charging, a box charger is available with purchase that enables up to 11 kW. Additional Features Not only does this new ProMaster offer an electric powertrain, but it also happens to be the most advanced version of the work van ever built. It’s packed full of incredible safety and security features, advanced technologies and much more to ensure you enjoy each and every moment with your new vehicle. Some of the highlights include a 10.2” reconfigurable display audio screen with Uconnect 5, Alexa In-Vehicle Assistant, Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and more.

As you’ve likely heard by now, especially if you’re a Dodge brand enthusiast, the traditional versions of the Dodge Charger and Challenger were discontinued after the 2023 model year. But fans of these two classic muscle cars shouldn’t have to wait too long for the next-generation versions of the nameplates, they’re just undergoing some massive changes before release. How so? Well, because they’re being reinvented as all-electric vehicles. Back in August of 2022, Dodge gave us our first glimpse at what the future might hold with the Dodge Charger Daytona SRT Concept, which you can see pictured here, but what do we know about the actual production version of the next-gen, all-electric Dodge Charger? “The Dodge Charger Daytona SRT Concept exists because performance made us do it. Dodge is about muscle, attitude and performance, and the brand carries that chip on its shoulder and into the BEV segment through a concept loaded with patents, innovations, and performance features that embody the electrified muscle of tomorrow. The Charger Daytona SRT Concept can do more than run the car show circuit; it can run a blazing quarter-mile. And when it comes to product cycles, it outruns Darwin. Charger Daytona does more than define where Dodge is headed, it will redefine American muscle in the process.” - Tim Kuniskis, Chief Executive Officer, Dodge Brand - Stellantis Confirmed Highlights Below is a list of highlights regarding the next-gen, battery-electric Charger Daytona SRT that have already been confirmed for us, starting with the official date that the production version of the concept will make its global debut.

We’ve got a little good news/bad news for you, unfortunately. The bad news is that production of all V8 HEMI-powered Dodge Durango models will cease at the end of the 2024 calendar year, following in the footsteps of its siblings the Charger and Challenger. As the industry as a whole continues to turn towards electrification, the need for gas-powered heavy hitters like these diminishes. But the good news is that the brand has already unveiled the first in a year-long series of “Last Call” models, again following its siblings. The first model is the 2024 Dodge Durango SRT 392 AlcHEMI, so let’s take a look at its specs & features to see what sets it apart. “Just as we did with the Dodge Charger and Challenger, it’s time to celebrate the V8 HEMI engine that has powered Dodge domination of the performance SUV segment. Special-edition “Last Call” models of the Durango will roll out during 2024 as we honor the most powerful SUV ever.” - Tim Kuniskis, Chief Executive Officer, Dodge Brand Unique Content This model will be limited to 1,000 units, with 250 being made in each of four different exterior color options – Diamond Black, Destroyer Gray, Vapor Gray and White Knuckle. Powered by the 392 V8 HEMI engine, it’ll be able to generate up to 475 horsepower alongside 470 pound-feet of torque.
