Ram had a few words to say about its new battery-electric pickup at the Chicago Auto Show. First, the automaker confirmed the name as the Ram 1500 REV. That makes the obvious allusion to the "revolution" Ram has been promising in the space for a while and, frankly, did a good job of delivering on with its three-row hauler. Ram said production starts next year, in 2024, and that we'd get more information about it on Sunday, February 12. Football fans will know that's the same date as the Super Bowl, and everyone who's more interested in the ads than the game knows the place to announce new vehicle information is during a commercial. So, yes, expect to see the 1500 REV in a spot.

The truck's public reveal will happen "in the coming months," Ram boss Mike Koval saying, "We are confident the Ram 1500 REV will push past the competition, offering what will be the leading combination of attributes customers care about the most: range, payload, towing and charge time."
