Ram Rampage lands in Europe with two distinct powertrains

Orders for the Ram Rampage are now open in Europe, and the model arrives in two distinct versions, each with its own dedicated powertrain: the Rebel with a 2.2-liter turbodiesel and the R/T with a 2.0-liter turbo petrol.

Stellantis is positioning the Rampage as a Premium Compact Lifestyle Pickup that sits "between traditional pickups and high-end SUVs," combining pickup utility with SUV-like refinement and technology. The European launch follows a preview at Fieracavalli 2025 in Verona; the company opened orders a year after that exhibition and plans first deliveries in February 2027.

Orders are open now, with a suggested starting price of '€44' sans taxes and first deliveries scheduled for February 2027.

Powertrains and specifications

The Rampage adopts a unibody architecture with independent front suspension and a multilink rear layout rather than a traditional body-on-frame design. It offers on-demand four-wheel drive with 4WD Low and Hill Descent Control. Overall length is 5,028 mm (197.95 inches) and width is 1,886 mm (74.25 inches).

Ram describes the Rampage cargo bed as 1,450 mm long (57 inches), long enough to accept a Euro pallet, and payload capacity varies by specification up to 1,015 kg (2,238 pounds).

The Rebel is the more utilitarian derivative and uses a 2.2-liter turbodiesel producing 200 horsepower and 450 Nm (332 lb-ft) of torque. It rides on 17-inch wheels with all-terrain tires and is described as tuned to move between work duties and urban roads commonly found in Europe.

The R/T is the performance-focused variant with a 2.0-liter turbo petrol engine rated at 272 horsepower and 400 Nm (295 lb-ft). It rides on 19-inch alloy wheels, features a 10 mm-lowered suspension and a tuned sport exhaust, and Ram states a 0–100 kph (0–62 mph) time of 6.9 seconds and a 220 kph (137 mph) top speed. Payload for the R/T drops to 750 kg (1,653 pounds) compared with the higher-capacity Rebel configurations, while retaining the four-wheel-drive system.

Fabio Catone, Head of Ram & Dodge Brands, Enlarged Europe, commented: "Rampage brings a bold new expression of RAM to Europe: unmistakable strength and capability, premium comfort and effortless everyday usability. Its European-friendly dimensions deliver true pickup versatility - without compromise."

Ram's broader relaunch in North America, including a return to Hemi V8 engines, has helped the brand climb to the top of Stellantis' U.S. brand sales chart, surpassing Jeep. The Rampage aims to translate some of that momentum to Europe with a smaller footprint and lifestyle positioning appropriate to regional markets.

The 1,450 mm bed accommodates a Euro pallet; final payload and equipment vary by version and trim.
