[edit] Description

The Battle Ram is a huge blue tank-like vehicle capable of battering down objects in its path. The Battle Ram is so powerful it is capable of battering down huge mountains.[1]

[edit] Early minicomics

The Battle Ram was the first MOTU vehicle featured in the minicomics. It was He-Man's personal vehicle, a gift from The Goddess.

[edit] TV series/Later minicomics

In the TV series (and subsequent minicomics) the Battle Ram was shown as a generic vehicle, with the Heroic Warriors using many Battle Rams. The Evil Warriors used green Battle Rams, which could have been Mattel's inspiration to create the Road Ripper.

[edit] Battle Ram Chariot

In the 2002 MOTU series, a new vehicle with a similar name appeared: the Battle Ram Chariot. The vehicle was unrelated to the original Battle Ram, and was Skeletor's personal chariot, pulled by two battering rams (hence the name).
