Yes and no. Same technology, different focus.
The point of the Volt was to drive on electric until it couldn’t. Then the range extender would kick in to put charge in the battery to keep the car going until you could get to the next charge. There were other circumstances that would force the engine to start.
The point of the Ramcharger is to keep the battery at a high state of charge so that the truck can maintain maximum towing capacity for a longer time.
The point of the Volt was to keep the engine off as much as possible. The point of the Ramcharger is to run the engine more often.
