Ram 1500 Engine Options & Performance

The Ram 1500 offers its drivers an array of options when it comes to performance. The truck comes standard with the 3.6L Pentastar® V6 engine with eTorque, which can boast 305 horsepower and 269 lb-ft of torque. The available 5.7 HEMI® V8 (also available with eTorque) generates 395 horsepower and 410 lb-ft of torque.

The truck also offers the optional 3.0L EcoDiesel V6. This engine can produce 260 horsepower and an impressive 480 lb-ft of torque. Each engine comes mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission with tow/haul modes.

Ram Truck Towing Capacities

Given the veritable engine selection and the range of abilities, the Ram 1500 offers some pretty strong abilities when it comes to towing or carrying significant payloads. The base-level V6 engine is capable of towing up to 7,730 pounds when properly equipped.

The 5.7L HEMI® V8 can tow up to 11,610 pounds, but when it’s paired with eTorque, its capacity for towing expands to 12,750 pounds. The 3.0L EcoDiesel V6 engine gives the Ram 1500 the ability to tow 12,560 pounds due to its impressive torque output.

2020 Ram 1500 Cab & Bed Configurations

The Ram 1500 is amendable for your needs, so you can tailor your truck as you see fit. Whether it’s just you and to occasional passenger, a whole crew, or a vast bed for all your tools and materials, there’s plenty of options for you to customize your ideal pickup.

The truck offers two cab and bed options. The Quad Cab includes a second row, though opting for the Crew Cab will give rear passengers more legroom, as this selection was designed for more room for second-row passengers. The Ram 1500 also offers a standard 5-foot, 7-inch cargo box, as well as a 6-foot, 4-inch cargo box, so depending on your need for storage, you’ll want to consider your options.
