Stellantis' new Ram pickup is an EV — with a gas-powered generator in case the battery runs out

[ad_1] 2025 Ram 1500 Ramcharger Tungsten Ram DETROIT — Automaker Stellantis plans to produce an industry-first electric pickup truck called the Ram 1500 Ramcharger that's equipped with an electric generator and a gas engine. If that sounds like an oxymoron, here's how it works: The truck can operate as a zero-emissions EV until its battery dies and an electric onboard generator — powered by a 27-gallon, 3.6-liter V6 engine — kicks on to power the vehicle. The outcome is a truck with the benefits of an EV, such as fast acceleration and some zero-emissions driving, without the range anxiety synonymous with most current electric vehicles, according to Ram CEO Tim Kuniskis. "This is the ultimate answer for the battery-electric truck. No one else has got anything else like it," Kuniskis told reporters during an event. "This is going to be a game changer for battery-electric trucks." The 2025 Ram 1500 Ramcharger is expected to go on sale in late 2024 alongsi

[ad_1] Akio Toyoda, president and CEO of Toyota Motor Corp. Kiyoshi Ota | Bloomberg | Getty Images DETROIT – Toyota Motor stock sealed its best week since 2009 on Friday, as the automaker laid out a robust plan for future all-electric vehicles and company scion Akio Toyoda became leader of the Japanese company's board. Shares of Toyota on the New York Stock Exchange closed Friday at $164.35 per share, down 2.3% for the day but still up 10.6% on the week. That 5-day gain is the stock's best week since April 2009 when shares increased 14.5%. Such a rally is not typical for the stock. It's only the third double-digit weekly gain in more than two decades for the relatively well-performing but mundane stock. Shares of the company are up 20% so far in 2023. The positive uptick this year comes as recent supply chain problems ease for the automotive industry, including Toyota, and after Toyoda, grandson of the company's founder, announced plans to transition from CEO to

[ad_1] Nikola TRE FCEV2 Courtesy: Nikola Electric heavy-truck maker Nikola will find out later Thursday whether its shareholders have approved its plan to raise money by selling more stock. Nikola hopes to raise more capital to help ramp up production of its new fuel-cell-powered electric heavy truck, set to launch later this month. But before it can sell additional stock to raise money, it needs to increase the total number of shares it's authorized to issue to 1.6 billion from 800 million. That move requires shareholder approval. Nikola first put the plan to its shareholders at its annual meeting in June. While 77% of those who voted were in favor, there weren't enough total shares voted to pass the proposal. Nikola is incorporated in Delaware, and under that state's law, at least half of the total outstanding shares of a company's common stock must be voted in favor for a share-increase proposal to pass. The company adjourned its annual meeting for a month to t
