Fact Check:
Our team conducted the keyword search. It was found that wikipedia covers the details about the company RAM,where it says ,”The Ram pickup (marketed as the Dodge Ram until 2010) is a full-size pickup truck manufactured by Stellantis North America and marketed from 2010 onwards under the Ram Trucks brand.”

We also went through the website of RAM trucks. There was no mention of any association of Lord Rama with name of the company or any of their vehicles.
Conclusion:
From the fact, it becomes evident that the viral claim about RAM’s car association with Lord Rama is false. There is no official statement about such claims on the company’s website as well.
