Big shifts are happening in the auto world right now. Major players like Ram, Honda, GM, Volkswagen, and Tesla are making moves that could change how we think about cars—and how we drive them.
Here at Greasers Auto in Tempe, Arizona, we’ve been keeping up with the latest trends for over 20 years. Whether you’re looking at electric vehicles (EVs) or sticking with a gas-powered ride, we’re here to help you navigate these changes. Let’s break down what’s going on and why it matters for you and your car.
Ram’s Big Step into Electric Trucks
Ram is entering the EV game in style with their new electric pickup concept, the Ram 1500 Revolution. This isn’t just a regular truck—it’s loaded with features like three rows of seats, a removable touchscreen, and doors that open backwards—more luxury than utility.
They’re clearly aiming to compete with other electric trucks like Ford’s F-150 Lightning and GMC’s Hummer EV.
If an electric truck is in your future, it’s good to know these vehicles have different maintenance needs than what you’re used to. At Greasers Auto, we’re ready for whatever you drive—electric, gas, or hybrid. Stop by 717 S Hacienda Dr, Tempe, AZ 85288, call us at (480) 946-0890, or visit greasersauto.com to schedule a checkup.
