The Mopar display at the 2024 SEMA Show in Las Vegas showcases a wide variety of vehicles and products, but there are three new concept machines making their debut at the sprawling automotive convention – two trucks based on current Ram production models and a classic muscle car sporting a futuristic powerplant.

“Our new Mopar concept vehicles showcase different ends of the performance spectrum, bringing innovative design and engineering expertise with a zero-emissions muscle car concept and the latest ideas for the Ram Sport Truck lineup,” said Mike Koval Jr., head of Mopar North America. “Whether it’s envisioning an electrified propulsion system or outfitting the most capable production off-road pickups, Mopar is ready to enhance the customer experience with quality-tested, factory-backed parts and accessories.”

1967 Plymouth GTX Electromod Concept from Mopar

Plymouth GTX Electromod Concept
First up, we have the 1967 Plymouth GTX Electromod, which as you can likely tell from the name is powered by an electric drivetrain. To be specific, the GTX Electromod is powered by a “conceptual Mopar e-Crate propulsion package” that sends around 335 horsepower to the rear wheels from a 400-volt, 250-kilowatt electric drive module.

This is essentially one of the drive units that will power the upcoming Dodge Charger Daytona (the Daytona has two – one that powers each axle), mounted under the hood with custom motor mounts made from 6061 aluminum alloy. The EDM is joined under the custom carbon fiber hood by an integrated dual-charging module, all of which are tucked under a cover that is inspired by the supercharger lid of the Hellcat Hemi.

The juice for the Mopar e-Crate comes from a quartet of batteries, three of which are mounted in the trunk in a cartridge-style aluminum frame that is designed to make for easy removal for service or replacement. The fourth battery (each of which weighs about 230 pounds) is mounted under the hood, allowing for better front-rear weight distribution.

Mopar didn’t share any performance numbers (aside from horsepower), but the 1967 Plymouth GTX Electromod has a range of about 250 miles on a single charge. Again, this powerplant package is just in its concept stages, but with gas-to-electric powerplant swaps becoming more popular, Mopar may introduce an alternative for people who are looking to put a Tesla drivetrain in a classic Mopar muscle car.

Other mechanical aspects of the 1967 Plymouth GTX Electromod a custom lowered three-link suspension system, Wilwood disc brakes at all four corners and a set of 18×9-inch BTG Vintage Bronze forged magnesium wheels wrapped in Pirelli P-Zero rubber.

In terms of exterior design, the 1967 Plymouth GTX Electromod preserves the lines of the classic muscle car, but there are quite a few changes that are popular among the restomod crowd. The design team widened the rear wheel openings, modified the front and rear bumpers and painted an array of trim pieces Satin Black, including the grille, window trim, exterior mirrors and tail panel.

There is also a pair of Satin Black stripes running along the length of the vented carbon fiber hood, a prominent Satin Black front splitter, a Satin Black rear spoiler and a Satin Black gas cap that is actually a charge-port door.

Finally, the interior has been dressed to introduce a modern feel without departing too much from the original layout of the Plymouth GTX cabin. The custom gauge cluster has round gauges with a very classic layout rather than the big, single screen that is found in many modern performance vehicles.

There is also a custom flat-bottomed steering wheel, Mopar stainless steel pedal covers, modified front seats from a Jeep Wrangler, the rotary shift knob from a Dodge Durango and the center console cupholders from a Jeep Grand Cherokee. The cabin is finished mostly in IndiGo Blue leather with Vintage Bronze and bright orange accents throughout.

Ram 2500 Power Wagon Concept

Next up, we have the first of two production pickups that have been Moparized for the SEMA Show in the form of the Ram 2500 Power Wagon Concept. This truck is based on the production Power Wagon, but the Mopar team has added upgrades inside and out to make it an even greater off-road machine that can still be comfortable for the daily drive.

The Ram 2500 Power Wagon Concept is finished in a unique two-tone paint scheme of Satin Stealth Sand and Matte Deep Black with a scattering of orange accents, showcasing a topographical map pattern on the hood and bed. Exterior upgrades include 20×10-inch black and Anthracite Grey Rhino Alpha wheels wrapped in 35-inch Goodyear rubber, a Mopar sport performance hood over the 6.4-liter Hemi, black trailer tow mirrors, an integrated Warn winch, an aluminum roof platform that carries a trio of 12-inch LED accessory lights and a Leitner Designs cargo rack storage system.

That Leitner system includes eight “Gear Pods” that attach above the bedsides, leading to a ton of extra cargo space without using up bed space. Mopar has also installed a Bed Slide system, making for easier access to the contents of the bed floor even with the Gear Pod system along the bedsides. The exterior upgrades are finished with a spray-in bedliner, a Mopar bed step and Mopar tubular side step bars.

On the inside, the Ram 2500 Power Wagon Concept features custom Katzkin leather seats in brown-and-black with contrasting orange stitching, with more Header Orange trim throughout the cabin. There is also a custom instrument panel rail mounted above the top of the 12-inch touchscreen, allowing occupants to keep their devices firmly in place when they are rocking and rolling down a rough trail. Finally, the Mopar under-seat storage system provides extra secure storage inside while Mopar’s all-weather mats protect the carpeting in the front and rear footwells.

Moparized Ram 1500 RHO

Last but not least, we have the Moparized Ram 1500 RHO Concept, which is based on the RHO – the latest high performance pickup to join the lineup. This truck is powered by the specially tuned 3.0-liter High Output Hurricane inline-six engine, sending 540 horsepower and 521 lb-ft of torque towards all four wheels by means of a quick-shifting 8-speed automatic transmission.

The drivetrain of this concept is unchanged, but the factory tires are replaced by a set of 37-inch tires and the body is dressed in a striking satin metallic Diamond Black paint with Mopar Blue graphics. Mopar has also added the bed-mounted spare tire carrier, the RamBar with a pair of 12-inch LED lights, stamped side steps and a black spray-in bedliner.

The cabin of this unique Ram 1500 RHO features custom black Nappa leather front and rear seats by Alea with Mopar Blue accents and suede bolsters, along with an accessory rail mounted atop the dashboard.

Fitted above the truck bed of the Ram 2500 Power Wagon Concept, an active cargo-rack storage system from Leitner Designs carries up to eight durable GearPODS that are integrated along the top of the bed sides. The versatile system adds valuable storage without sacrificing truck bed floor space. Also helping to manage cargo is a drop-in Bed Slide system - making loading and unloading gear an effortless task.
