Fact Check-

We found that the information about the same car was published on a website. According to the information, the name of the company manufacturing these cars is Ram. This is an old company that produced cars in collaboration with Dodge company from 1981-1993. Initially, it was known as Dodge Ram. The Dodge Company has been producing trucks since 1917.

In 1981, the company decided that its car logo would be a ram's (Male Sheep) head. After that they started putting the ram's head on the vehicles. You can see an example of this below.

Below you can see the similarity between the ram's head and the cars logo.

According to another website, the Dodge company has been using the ram's head logo on its cars since 1933. These vehicles were mostly produced for hard workers who worked in farms or oil fields. That is why a ram's head design was used as a logo which symbolized strength in the rugged construction of the vehicles.

Conclusion:

Fact Crescendo found that the Ram cars are not newly launched. This company has been manufacturing vehicles since 1981. The car was named after Ram (Male Sheep), symbolizing the strength and power of the cars. The name of this car has no connection to Lord Ram’s name.
