America's Next EV Wave: The Rise of Extended-Range Electric Vehicles

A wave of extended‑range electric vehicles (EREVs) — cars where a gasoline engine only powers a generator to recharge the battery and does not drive the wheels — is poised to hit the U.S. market in 2026–2028. Highlights include the Ram 1500 REV (92 kWh pack, ~145 miles electric, ~690 miles with gas), Scout Motors Terra/Traveler (≈150 miles EV, ≈500 miles total), the Jeep Grand Wagoneer EREV, Hyundai/Genesis EREV SUVs (targeting >560 miles combined), and Ford’s F‑150 Lightning EREV (over 700 miles claimed). Other models from Nissan, Kia, Volvo, BMW, Audi and Lotus are mentioned with timing and certainty varying. Pricing and exact specs remain uncertain as automakers push this bridge technology amid a changing market and policy landscape.

Stellantis has launched a new EV charging and energy business, Free2Move Charge, to provide charging solutions for homes, businesses, and on the go.

Stellantis is falling behind its peers in North America, with its first EVs launching later this year, including the RAM 1500 REV electric pickup and Jeep's first electric cars.

The Rise of Electric Trucks: Why They're the Hottest EVs on the Market

The Ford F-150 Lightning is in high demand, with customers willing to pay above sticker price for the all-electric pickup truck. The success of the Lightning has prompted other automakers, such as Rivian, GMC, and Ram, to enter the electric truck market. Electric trucks are removing barriers to entry for EVs and are posting performance numbers not found in standard gas-powered pickups. The rapidly expanding list of electric trucks could help President Joe Biden meet his latest climate goals that call for two-thirds of new cars and trucks sold in the U.S. to be all-electric by 2032.

Highlights from the 2023 New York Auto Show.

The 2023 New York Auto Show had its hits and misses, with the Ram 1500 REV impressing with an 800-pound gorilla and 500 miles of range, while the Subaru Crosstrek Wilderness failed to impress. The Kia EV9 drew crowds with its electrifying three-row crossover, and the Genesis GV80 Coupe Concept stunned with its stylish and elegant design. Honda had nothing new to show, while Nissan's GT-R 'ultimate garage' and Ariya made it snow inside the Javits Center. Luxury brands like Mercedes, Acura, Cadillac, and Jaguar Land Rover were missing, while facelifts for the Jeep Wrangler, Chevrolet Trailblazer, Ford Escape, and Volkswagen Atlas impressed. The Chevrolet Camaro's retirement party was lackluster, while the Ford Mustang and Dodge Challenger Demon 170 stole the show.
