Insights
Stellantis'
The introduction of the Ram 1500 REV and Ramcharger models positions Stellantis competitively in the electric truck market. The Ramcharger's innovative range-extended technology could be a game-changer, addressing range anxiety concerns. However, the success of these models will depend on consumer acceptance and the pace of charging infrastructure development.

The ability to produce multiple powertrain types on a single line may lead to improved cost efficiencies and capacity utilization. However, investors should monitor the return on investment closely, as the transition to EVs often involves significant upfront costs and uncertain demand trajectories.
Stellantis' commitment to becoming carbon net zero by 2038 aligns with growing ESG concerns among investors. This could potentially improve the company's access to capital and appeal to environmentally conscious investors. However, the financial implications of this ambitious goal should be carefully evaluated against potential regulatory benefits and market positioning advantages.
Stellantis' investment in multi-energy vehicle production represents a pragmatic approach to the energy transition in the automotive sector. By maintaining flexibility in production, the company is hedging against uncertainties in the pace of EV adoption and potential policy shifts.
The introduction of range-extended electric vehicles like the Ram 1500 Ramcharger could serve as an important bridge technology, potentially accelerating the transition away from pure ICE vehicles while addressing range anxiety concerns. This strategy may help in meeting increasingly stringent emissions regulations in the short to medium term.
However, the long-term sustainability of this approach depends on the life-cycle emissions of these vehicles and the source of electricity for charging. Stellantis should focus on ensuring a clean energy supply chain to maximize the environmental benefits of its electrification strategy. The company's carbon neutrality goal by 2038 is ambitious and will require significant efforts beyond vehicle electrification.

Sterling Heights Assembly Plant (SHAP)
With an investment of
As part of SHAP’s multi-energy industrialization strategy, the teams completed the BEV-specific installations during two planned down weeks, tapping into their ingenuity to finish the work ahead of schedule. Stellantis partnered with equipment suppliers and contractors to carefully plan and execute the installation of a new conveyor system, new automation for BEV-specific processes, and the retooling and rearrangement of workstations in general assembly to be able to produce ICE, BEV and range-extended models on the same assembly line.
The Ram 1500 REV is built on the new STLA Frame architecture, specifically designed for full-size electric vehicles featuring a body-on-frame design, with an all-new high-strength steel frame comprised of advanced materials to be lightweight, yet stiff and durable. The STLA Frame is wider in the middle to efficiently incorporate the battery pack while still utilizing protection afforded by the frame rails. The REV will reach up to 500 miles of range with the optional 229 kilowatt-hour battery pack and up to 350 miles with the 168 kilowatt-hour battery pack.
The 2025 Ram 1500 Ramcharger offers 663 horsepower, 615 lb.-ft of torque, 4-second 0-60 mph, 14,000 lbs. of towing and zero need for a public charger. It features a 92 kilowatt-hour (kWh) battery pack, paired with an on-board 130 kW generator, sending power to 250-kilowatt (kW) front and 238 kW rear electric drive modules (EDMs). Vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-home bi-directional charging affords the Ram 1500 Ramcharger the flexibility to charge another Stellantis battery-electric vehicle or provide power back to the grid.
