Here's how Ram's electric pickup will go the distance with gasoline

The Ram 1500 REV electric pickup will be offered with a range-extending generator that will allow it to run on gasoline when the battery is drained.

Further details were not included in the ad, but Carlos Tavares, CEO of Ram's parent brand Stellantis, offered more information to Fox News Digital during a media event in New York City on Tuesday. Gary Gastelu is Fox News Digital's automotive editor.

Ram's sister brand Jeep currently offers several plug-in hybrid models that offer short all-electric driving ranges -- 21–26 miles -- and then operate as conventional hybrids when the battery is drained, but the 1500 REV will work differently.
