AutoExec Summary

The 2024 Ram 1200 has launched in Latin America, debuting as a new mid-size ute. The vehicle, which was revealed in Mexico, is set to compete with the Ford Ranger and Toyota HiLux. It features a 2.4-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine and offers six-speed manual or automatic transmissions with rear- or all-wheel drive options. The Ram 1200 is based on the Peugeot Landtrek and is marketed as the Fiat Titano in Brazil. Ram intends to introduce this model to the Australian market, where mid-size utes are highly popular. Additionally, Ram’s plans for an electric ute, potentially named Dakota, are uncertain, raising the possibility of the Ram 1200 being produced in right-hand-drive for Australia.

Brands mentioned: Ram, Ford, Toyota, Jeep, Peugeot, Fiat, Changan, Alfa Romeo
