2025 Ram 1200 Pickup Goes On Sale In Mexico

Last week, we discussed the debut of the all-new 2025 Ram 1200 in Mexico, marking a significant expansion for the Ram brand in the region. This midsize pickup truck, which has already gained traction in other markets such as the Fiat Titano and Peugeot Landtrek, is built on a body-on-frame design and is based on the Chinese Kaicene F70 and Changan trucks.

While it shares many robust features with its Fiat and Peugeot counterparts, the Ram 1200 distinguishes itself with a unique grille and bold “R-A-M” lettering on the tailgate. The Mexican-market Ram 1200 is produced in China, following in the footsteps of Dodge’s successful Mexican-market Journey crossover.

Cab Configurations and Trim Levels –
