An electric van… that follows you everywhere?
Ram unveiled the Ram 1500 Revolution BEV, its first-ever all-electric pickup truck, at CES 2023. The electric truck features rear-swinging suicide doors, three rows of seats, an AR screen, an AI personal assistant, and “themes ” for the interior of the car. For example, you can activate party mode or relax mode – each changes the position and orientation of the seats, the lighting, the sound system and even the opacity of the skylight. But the most interesting thing about the electric truck has to be its “shadow mode” function, which allows the truck to follow the driver, much like a dog, when he is on foot.
