The Ram 1500 Rebel brings a one-of-a-kind off-road design to the full-size truck segment.
Rebel features an all-new grille with prominent billet silver “RAM” letter badge. Departing from the brand’s iconic ‘cross-hair’ designs, the blacked-out Rebel grille tops a completely new black off-road front bumper design with a durable powder-coated surface, which incorporates a powder coated, billet silver skid plate, new front tow hooks and new LED fog lamps. Rebel’s blacked-out frontend continues on the flanks, where black Power Wagon wheel-arch mouldings, flat-black badge, mirrors and lower body panels create a distinctive trail-ready presence.
The Ram 1500 Rebel features an all-new 17-inch aluminium wheel. Among the most elaborate designs found in mass production, the new one-piece wheel incorporates matte black painted accent pockets and multi-angled surfaces linked to the Rebel’s off-road bias. It includes an optional backup camera, providing a better field of vision when manoeuvring. A new tri-fold tonneau cover is embossed with the Ram logo, and bed lighting is now available - bright LEDs shine from the rear corners next to the tailgate, giving owners better visibility when the workday lasts into the evening.
Inside, Rebel is every bit as brawny and rugged as it is outside, featuring dramatic, industry-exclusive seating elements. Highdurability technical grain vinyl seats are finished in Radar Red and Black with Sedoso fabric inserts. The all-black instrument panel, door armrests and logo-embossed centre console armrest cover are topped with two-tone Radar Red and Light Gray accent stitching. An all-new centre console bin incorporates a cellular phone/tablet holder with moulded insert allowing for various-sized devices.

The Limited’s all-new grille is the most prominent change to the exterior. It is also the apex of modern luxury with subtle stitching accents, pinstriping, unique materials and patterns are found throughout the interior.
The Rebel’s trail-running capability gets a boost with 1-inch (25.4mm) raised ride height for improved off-road approach, departure and break over angles. The Rebel takes advantage of Ram’s exclusive air suspension system with a 1-inch (25.4 mm) factory suspension lift, which not only helps to clear the 33inch tyres but also contributes to additional ground clearance.
The Ram Rebel 1500 is backed with a Five Year / 100,000km Powertrain Limited Warranty. The powertrain-limited warranty covers the cost of all parts and labour needed to repair a covered powertrain component - engine, transmission and drive system. The warranty is also transferable, allowing customers who sell their truck during the warranty period to pass the coverage onto the new owner.
