For a true measure of versatility and reliable light-duty performance, look no further than the 2025 Ram 1500. The pickup truck features a capable powertrain, flexible tailgate design, and plenty of assistance technologies to make your workday easier.
Unstoppable Power
A hybrid V6 and two Hurricane engine options allow you to choose the right Ram 1500 configuration for your needs. The standard 3.6L Pentastar V6 with eTorque produces 305 hp and 269 lb-ft of torque. eTorque technology boosts the engine’s performance using a belt-driven 48V electric motor to both replace the conventional alternator and supplement the powertrain with extra torque. When hitched to a conventional trailer, the mild hybrid pickup truck tows 8,110 lbs and hauls 2,370 lbs.
You can significantly boost performance by choosing the available 3.0L Hurricane engine, which cranks out 420 hp and 469 lb-ft of torque. The truck tows an impressive 11,550 lbs and hauls 1,980 lbs in this configuration. If you are more interested in speed and off-roading, the lineup also includes a High-Output 3.0L Hurricane engine that generates a ground-trembling 540 hp and 521 lb-ft of torque.
Extreme Durability
Ram engineers built the pickup truck on a 98% steel frame to ensure it remains sturdy when handling heavy loads on the most unforgiving terrains. Galvanized steel and lightweight aluminum alloys are used in the construction of the truck’s body, improving corrosion resistance and reducing overall weight. Additionally, the standard front and rear heavy-duty shock absorbers manage the excess stress of heavy payloads, and they absorb nearly all of the energy from impacts, such as bumps and potholes.
Impressive Off-Road Capabilities
The excellent build quality, short-long arm front suspension, and multi-link rear suspension enable this truck to drive confidently beyond the pavement. However, if you are looking for the best off-roading prowess, the pickup truck offers two trims that are specially designed for rugged terrain: the Rebel X and RHO. The more performance-oriented of the two, the RHO trim level, comes equipped with a Bilstein Black Hawk e2 Shock System, off-road-tuned suspension, wheel flare extensions, and much more.
Versatile Tailgate
For even more versatility than the standard locking and dampened tailgate provides, you can opt for the available multifunction tailgate. The upgraded design allows the tailgate to be opened like a barn door to access the truck bed in cramped spaces. It can also swing down flat like a traditional tailgate and support a weight of 2,000 lbs. A kick-out step is included in the setup to help drivers access the truck bed more easily.
On top of offering the power to haul enormous loads, the Ram 1500 is packed with features that make the job exciting. Visit us at Charlevoix Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram in Charlevoix, MI to find out more about the pickup truck and explore its various trim levels.
