Two of Stellantis’s most-anticipated electrified trucks are moving further out of reach for the customers who already put money down on them. Supplier documentation reviewed by Automotive News shows the Jeep Grand Wagoneer EREV and the Ram 1500 REV extended-range electric truck have both slipped again, with the Ram program pushed back as much as nine months from its prior target.

What’s Changing

• Jeep Grand Wagoneer EREV: production start moved from May 2026 to November 2026, a roughly six-month slip.
• Ram 1500 REV (Ramcharger): production now targeted for mid-April 2027, pushing the launch out by as much as nine months from the timeline suppliers had been building toward.
• Both trucks use the same extended-range architecture: a 400-volt battery pack paired with a Pentastar V6 acting as an onboard generator rather than a direct drive motor.

The delay marks the second time Stellantis has pushed back its range-extender trucks. The company already scrapped its original battery-electric Ram 1500 REV plan in 2025, replacing it with the current gas-electric hybrid approach after dealers and reservation holders had been told to expect a fully electric truck, according to NBC News’s reporting on that earlier reversal.

Why It Matters for Reservation Holders

Thousands of customers put down refundable deposits on both vehicles when Stellantis first opened reservations, expecting trucks on dealer lots by 2026. Two consecutive delays now push real-world availability into 2027 for the Ram, with no formal customer communication about the new dates published alongside the supplier documentation.

Stellantis has not issued its own public statement confirming the specific new dates. Spokespeople have told reporters the programs remain on schedule as internally planned, a position that conflicts directly with the supplier timeline that triggered this round of reporting. That gap between what suppliers are being told to build toward and what the company is saying publicly leaves reservation holders with no authoritative source to check their own expected delivery window against.

What Owners Should Do

• Contact your Jeep or Ram dealer directly to confirm your reservation’s current position and whether your deposit remains fully refundable.
• Do not rely on the original 2026 marketing materials for either vehicle — both timelines have now moved at least once.
• Watch for official Stellantis communication rather than third-party reporting when deciding whether to keep a deposit active.

The stated rationale for the delay, per the supplier documents, is to avoid rushing the unusual three-part powertrain — battery, combustion engine, and generator — into production before it’s fully validated. Stellantis has had costly quality problems with rushed launches before, and the company’s own leadership has spoken publicly about tightening quality control across its lineup after a rocky stretch of recalls in recent years.

For now, both trucks remain unavailable to order for immediate delivery, and Stellantis’s silence on the record leaves a real accountability gap for the people who reserved them in good faith.
