Ram Confirms Full-Size SUV for 2028 as Stellantis Maps U.S. Expansion

Built at Warren, the SUV will pair gasoline options with a range‑extended electric setup under Stellantis’ $13 billion U.S. plan.

Overview

  • Stellantis CEO Antonio Filosa said Ram will launch a large SUV with production beginning in 2028 at the Warren Truck Assembly Plant.
  • Industry reporting expects the vehicle to use Stellantis’ STLA Frame underpinnings and to share powertrain lineage with the Ram 1500 and Jeep Grand Wagoneer.
  • Ram’s return to the midsize pickup segment is proceeding, with sources reporting Toledo North assembly on a bespoke ladder‑frame platform, pilot builds in March 2027, and an annual target of up to 100,000 units requiring a third shift and roughly 900 new jobs.
  • Filosa announced two upcoming SRT performance models for Ram to be revealed in the coming months, with one widely expected to succeed the TRX.
  • These moves are part of Stellantis’ approximately $13 billion investment in U.S. manufacturing through 2029 to broaden Ram’s lineup beyond trucks and vans.
