More details about the Ram 1500 Ramcharger.
2025 Toyota 4Runner and 2026 Honda Passport
This Japanese duo is completely redesigned and set to give the Jeep Wrangler and Ford Bronco a more serious run for their money. The 2025 4Runner goes on sale in March. Its new turbocharged four-cylinder engine ably replaces the old 4.0-litre V6 with 278 hp and 317 lb-ft of torque, but is also part of an optional hybrid system generating 326 hp and a whopping 465 lb-ft of torque. More adventurous drivers can opt for the TRD Pro and Trailhunter models.
The second-generation 2026 Passport is significantly more off-road-oriented than the first one. In fact, Honda describes it as the company’s most adventurous and capable SUV ever. Expected to arrive in dealerships in the early months of 2025, it will be available in TrailSport and TrailSport Touring models. The 3.5-litre V6 is back and slightly more potent (285 hp), now paired with a new 10-speed automatic transmission.
2025 Porsche 911 GTS T-Hybrid
Unveiled in the summer of 2024, the first gas-electric 911 is about to hit the road in Canada, marking a major turning point in the history of the German sports coupe. Called T-Hybrid, the system features an all-new turbocharged 3.6-litre flat-six engine combined with various electric motors. Total output is rated at 533 hp and 450 lb-ft of torque, enabling the 911 GTS to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in just 3 seconds.

2026 Nissan Rogue PHEV
More than the fourth-generation Murano, it’s the upcoming Rogue PHEV that Nissan customers are eagerly awaiting. The model has yet to be introduced, but will go on sale by the end of 2025. Its technology will be borrowed from the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV, meaning the Rogue will no longer be one of the lone SUVs in the segment without an electrified option. A great alternative to the 201-hp three-cylinder turbo engine.

2025 Ram 1500 Ramcharger
Citing slowing industry demand for half-ton electric pickups combined with “overwhelming consumer interest” in the upcoming, range-extending Ramcharger, Stellantis has decided to pull launch timing of the latter ahead of the Ram 1500 REV. Orders will open in the first half of 2025. The Ramcharger features a 92kWh high-voltage battery that can be charged on the go by a 3.6-litre V6 acting as a generator, giving the truck over 1,100 km of total range. With 663 hp, it can tow up to 14,000 lbs—tops in the segment.
