2023 Ram Rampage unveiled

may face competition from the new Ram Dakota mid-sized pick-up. There is currently no announcement regarding its anticipated arrival time.

the Chevy Camaro customers will also receive a welcome kit that contains two commemorative posters about its history.

The production of the ZL1 model is limited to a maximum of 350 units. However, one could spend between US$4995 (AU7498) and as much as $US14995(AU22511) depending on which version of this car they select when getting The Collector’s Edition.

Since GMSV stopped importing and converting their cars into RHD models for Australia last April 2020; exclusive availability of sixth-gen Camaros became limited to the US market.

With reports dating back to July 2021 indicating its eventual demise and replacement with an EV model still sporting its namesake - it is not unexpected news that we are hearing about phasing out of sixthgeneration now.

Though an official announcement by Chevy regarding a new model replacing sixth-gen Camaro is pending but what we do know is production of current version will come to a close in January 2024. The finalized 2024 Camaro lineup from Chevy doesn’t include a turbo four-cylinder variant any-more, buyers will have to choose between either a V6 or V8 model.

While RAM was never intended as a competitor for the Toyota HiLux or Ford Ranger, this South American model serves as a clear preview of things to come.

Ram Rampage’s design language pays homage to its elder sibling -the mighty Ram 1500. The incorporation of design elements including C-shaped LED daytime running lights and a wide TRX-style grille paired with black plastic bumpers can be observed.

A unique tail-light signature is achieved by arranging five LED lights in a D-shaped pattern for this car. The US flag serves as an inspiration for the reverse light design, which celebrates this vehicle’s origins in Michigan.

The majority of full-sized pickups and utilities are constructed with traditional frame-based methods, unlike The Ram rampage which utilizes a distinct unibody design. The design was modeled after the small pickups sold in America, specifically the Ford Maverick.

The anticipated fuel source for the rampage involves a 2.0 litre turbocharged petrol engine that it shares with various other automobiles including Jeep, Alfa Romeo, and Maserati. Per Carscoop’s report.

The prior Rampage previews released by Ram showed that its interior components will include leather seating and a rotary dial gear shifter, as well as technical upgrades such as an infotainment screen measuring 10.25 inches.

Later in the year, Ram will provide more information about the Rampage’s pricing and specs.

Australia’s top-selling vehicles such as Toyota HiLux and Ford Ranger

Working toward developing a mid-size pickup truck was revealed by Ram’s CEO Mike Koval to Australian journalists during an interview held at the New York Auto Show last April. Still, it is only present as a notion.

People have continuously talked about the possibility of reintroducing a Ram mid-size pickup for ages. Still, I am unwavering in achieving our objectives with the aid of my steadfast management crew who will make certain its production. This project’s delivery is under our control.

The first step towards achieving global accessibility for our future vehicles would be the (next-generation Ram 1500).

Because it has gained popularity in Australia, an updated version of Ram Dakota may be produced by the company’s US factory. The available options would be either electric or petrol-powered engines and a model with right-hand drive.
