Towing, Hauling, and Performance

The newest addition to the Ram family offers a variety of high-power engines and load-handling transmissions making it versatile as well as functional.

The 1500 frame is 98% high-strength steel so it can easily handle up to 12.750 pounds of maximum towing capacity and up to a maximum payload of 2,300 pounds.

Exterior Styling

With its sculpted hood and bold grille, the 1500 has a unique profile. Features such as LED headlamps, trailer tow mirrors that fold away when not in use, and available power side running boards that activate automatically when a door is opened, there’s plenty to love. The 60/40 split tailgate offers easy access or opens down flat in the traditional way. It can also be opened via key-fob control and has the capacity to handle 2,000 pounds of weight.

The RamBox Cargo Management System provides extra storage for tools and equipment. Fill it with ice and cold drinks and you have a portable cooler that is lockable, drainable, and weatherproof. It also comes with a 115-volt power outlet.

Luxurious and Tech-Ready Interior

Ram trucks offer superior luxury and a driver-friendly interior. A rear-facing camera creates a real-time HD rearview mirror. The Heads-Up Display keeps your eyes on the road by projecting important information onto the windshield in your line of sight. Connect to your favorite apps and infotainment with the Uconnect 12-inch Touchscreen or enjoy the flexibility of SiriusXM Radio’s 360L technology or Android Auto. The standard-equipped filtration system cleans 95% of dust, smoke, aerosols, and droplets out of the air.
For drivers and passengers, the cabin boasts 42.8 inches of rear leg room. The rear seats can recline with the aid of eight-way adjustments. Built-in floor storage keeps the footwells both clear and free of hazards. Specific Ram models also feature leather seats and a 10-inch sunroof. Finally, the Ram active noise cancellation soundproofing means the 900-watt Harman Kardan sound system with 19 speakers will sound crisp and clear.
