Revealed First-Hand, The Future Pickup Truck From RAM Rescues An Iconic Name, But Its Base Comes From A Chinese Project And Shares Parts With The Fiat Titano, Generating Great Expectation And Controversy.

RAM is preparing the return of an iconic name with the RAM Dakota 2026. The model, revealed at an exclusive event in the special Nightfall version, caught attention for its design and the brand’s strategy. However, the big news is its base: a project of Chinese origin, which will be produced in South America to compete in the fierce medium pickup market.

A Chinese Project With The Strength Of The RAM Brand

The big revelation is its origin. The new Dakota is based on the second generation of a pickup from the Chinese brand Changan. The strategy is clear: to use an existing base and apply the strength and prestige of the RAM name, which has great sales appeal.

This approach is the same used in the Fiat Titano, which also has a Chinese base. RAM is thus seeking a faster and more competitive entry into the segment. It has been reported that the first units of the Dakota will likely be imported from China, with production in South America starting later. The choice to revive the name Dakota aims to create an emotional connection with the audience.

Visual Details Of The Special Nightfall Version

The unit presented was from the special Nightfall version, featuring an imposing design. The front has full LED headlights and a robust tow hook. An undercarriage protector was also visible, reinforcing the proposal of robustness.

The wheels were described as “beautiful” and the vehicle had a roll bar in the bed. One detail noted was the door handles, identical to those of the Fiat Titano. The vehicle also features blind spot alert, but there are no turn signal repeaters on the mirrors.

Fox Shocks, Leaf Spring, And Drum Brakes

To tackle any terrain, the pickup comes equipped with shocks from the renowned brand Fox. The rear suspension uses a traditional and robust configuration, with leaf springs, similar to that of the Titano.

One point that drew attention was the presence of drum brakes on the rear axle, a functional solution but considered simpler by the market. The bed, generously sized, has a 12V outlet and its lid does not have a soft opening system, being considered heavy.

What We Still Don’t Know: Interior, Price, And Launch

During the presentation, the vehicle was locked, preventing the visualization of internal details. Therefore, no information was disclosed about the finish or technologies onboard the cabin.

The engine is also a mystery, although a characteristic diesel engine sound was noted. Officially, no pricing or launch date details have been confirmed. Speculation is that the RAM Dakota 2026 will be priced above the Fiat Titano and the Ram Rampage.
