Engine Options
The Ram 2500 offers an available gasoline V8 engine or a turbocharged diesel inline-six, with the Power Wagon trim coming solely with the V8. The 6.4-liter V8 delivers 429 lb-ft torque and 410 horsepower, paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission.
The 6.7-liter diesel inline-six produces 370 horsepower and 850 lb-ft torque, ideal for heavy-duty hauling. It offers two transmission choices: an eight-speed automatic and a six-speed auto. The truck can be equipped with rear-wheel or four-wheel drive.
Interior Features
Despite its workhorse nature, the Ram 2500 boasts a comfortable interior suitable for long trips. Depending on the trim, seating accommodates five or six passengers. Padded seats and conveniently placed controls enhance comfort and accessibility. Large door openings and optional power-deployable side steps facilitate easy entry and exit. The rear seats fold down for additional cargo space.
Technology Offerings
The new Ram 2500 is equipped with advanced tech, including the Uconnect® 5 infotainment system, available in sizes from five to twelve inches. Features include multiple speakers, Wi-Fi connectivity, trailer-specific navigation, a 360-degree camera, and a 220-amp alternator.
P payload and Towing Capacity
This truck can handle a maximum payload of up to 4,010 pounds and tow around 15,000 pounds. The Power Wagon trim slightly lowers payload capacity to 10,520 pounds.
Trim Levels
Ram 2500 is available in several trims: Tradesman, Big Horn, Lone Star, Power Wagon, Laramie, Longhorn, and Limited. The Power Wagon adds a premium package. Tradesman suits work-related use, while Big Horn and Lone Star are available in regular cabs. Laramie offers crew and mega cab options. Longhorn features premium equipment like 18-inch polished wheels, chrome mirrors, chrome steps, rain-sensing wipers, and more. The Limited edition offers a luxurious experience.
Safety Features
Driver-assist options include blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, and automatic high beams. Ram 2500 crew cab models have earned a four-star safety rating from the NHTSA.
Due to its heavy-duty class, the Ram 2500 isn't rated for fuel economy. Designed for a smooth ride and comfort, pricing ranges from $42,775 to $70,710, depending on the chosen trim.
