THE AUTO NATION Group (ANG), official distributor and service provider of Ram in the Philippines, has announced the local availability of the Ram 1500 Rebel Crew Cab. Priced at P4.09 million, the full-size pickup model follows the release of the Ram 1500 Laramie Crew Cab sometime back.
The Rebel highlights Ram’s class-exclusive Ram Box Cargo Management System that “can serve as an icebox storage for beverages and frozen food” or even objects that can prove challenging to fasten or tie down to an average truck bed such cables, fishnets, tripods against tripods, etc. ANG said in a release that the Ram Box is most convenient for segregating objects and makes it possible to easily store and secure items.
Under the hood of the pickup is a 5.7-liter V8 HEMI MDS VVT engine generating 395hp (at 5,600rpm) and 555Nm (at 3,950rpm). This is mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. The Rebel gets 18 x 8 mid-gloss black wheels, off-road fenders, tow hooks, and Bilstein performance shocks in the front and rear for all-terrain comfort. An electronic locking rear axle furthers its off-roading ability. Illuminating its surroundings are LED headlamps, tail lamps, and fog lamps.
A Rebel can also be distinguished through its two-tone exterior paint, and matte-black accents painted in the Ram logo. It receives tubular side steps, front and rear steel bumpers, and dual exhaust.
Inside the Ram 1500 Rebel is a huge 12-inch Uconnect touchscreen display and a seven-inch TFT colored cluster display. Ram says it is one of the pioneers of the large touchscreen in the segment. For more information, visit https://www.ram.com/ph/en.
