The Rampage isn’t just any pickup; it’s a nod to Dodge’s car-truck hybrid from the early ’80s but reimagined for today’s adventurous spirit. This scaled-down version of the Ram 1500 doesn’t just aim to compete; it’s here to lead the pack, especially against the likes of the Maverick. It’s compact yet confident, a bit shorter, a tad taller, and boasting a style that’s unmistakably Ram. Making its debut in Brazil, the Rampage carries the essence of its North American roots, designed through a collaboration between the Stellantis Design Center in South America and a team from North America. Just one look at its tail lights, and you’ll see the global appeal it’s aiming for.

Now, let’s dive under the hood and around the corners of this fascinating addition to the Ram family. Offered in three distinct flavors – Laramie, Rebel, and RT – the Rampage caters to every taste. The Laramie is all about luxury, the Rebel craves the dirt, and the RT? It’s the sporty one that dares you to push the limits. Inside, you’re greeted by a digital wonderland with a 10.3-inch gauge cluster and a 12.3-inch center screen boasting the Uconnect system, not to mention wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and a cool wireless charging pad.
Each trim has its charm – Laramie rolls on 18-inch wheels and sports brown leather interiors, while the Rebel toughens up with all-terrain tires and a mix of graphite and blacked-out trim. The RT stands out with its glossy black elements, 19-inch wheels, and a stance that’s 10 millimeters lower than its siblings.
New Ram Rampage 2024: Engine, Transmission, and Performance
Alright, let’s talk about what makes the Rampage tick, especially the one they’re selling in Brazil right now. It’s giving us some pretty strong vibes that this little beast might pack the same punch as the Hornet GT – yep, we’re talking a turbocharged 2.0-liter engine cranking out 268 horses. And no matter which engine it’s rocking, you can bet it’ll have all-wheel drive as standard. Plus, it’s likely sticking with that smooth nine-speed auto transmission.
Now, about the engine – instead of going with the diesel option they have in Brazil, there’s chatter that the Rampage might get a bit of an eco-boost from the Hornet. Imagine this – a 288-hp plug-in hybrid setup that’s got both a turbocharged 1.3-liter engine and an electric motor, all tied together with a six-speed auto. Sounds like the sport truck era might be making a comeback, doesn’t it? Guess we’ll have to wait and see what else pops up about this ride.
