Let’s get started by taking a look under the front hood!

Performance Specifications

Leading the way in the new 2019 Ram 1500 is a standard 3.6L Pentastar® V6 engine. With this standard engine, you’ll manufacture an impressive 305 horsepower and 269 lb-ft of torque, which will let you tow up to 7,730 pounds and haul up to 2,100 pounds of payload weight.¹

On top of all of the power and capability that this engine has to offer, it’s also equipped with an eTorque mild hybrid system. This system switches out the engine’s traditional alternator for a 48-volt battery-powered generator, maximizing both performance and efficiency.

Need more power and more capability? The Ram 1500 has you covered with the available 5.7L HEMI® V8 engine. When this engine’s power output of 395 horsepower and 410 lb-ft of torque is paired with the available eTorque technology, this pickup truck can tow up to a best-in-class V8 towing capacity of 12,750 pounds.²

No matter which engine you choose, it’ll be working alongside a standard class-exclusive TorqueFlite® 8-speed automatic transmission. This transmission specializes in maximizing both power and efficiency by optimizing every single gear shift.

Interior Comfort & Luxury

Inside of the 2019 Ram 1500, you’ll find luxurious comfort features that are on par with the impressive equipment under the hood. Customize the interior of the Ram 1500 by choosing one of more than eight seating surface options, including premium cloths, vinyl surfaces, and leathers.

On top of the luxurious seating surfaces that will keep everyone comfortable, you’ll also have quite a bit of space to take advantage of. Inside the Crew Cab, you’ll have up to six spacious seats. Passengers of all shapes and sizes will have plenty of space to sprawl out, as is clear in the following interior dimensions:

That’s not all that the rear seats have to offer, though. You’ll also be able to recline in these seats by using the available class-exclusive reclining seat backs. Kick back and relax with a cold drink, which you can keep in the class-exclusive rear-seat fold-down center console.²

Enhance the comfort in your Ram 1500 even more with all of the extra-luxurious features it has to offer. Opt for 8-way power-adjustable front seats, or go for heated and ventilated front and rear seats, so you can stay comfortable no matter what the temperature is outside. Top it all off with a dual-zone automatic temperature control system with front and rear temperature controls, so everyone can be in charge of their own climate.

• Blind Spot Monitoring with Rear Cross Path and Trailer Detection
• Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop and Go
• Full-Speed Forward Collision Warning Plus

These active safety features use a series of advanced exterior monitors and sensors to keep track of what’s going on around your vehicle. When they detect a potential collision or accident, they’ll alert you right away so that you can correct it and prevent the collision altogether.

One more active safety feature that you can opt for is the available 360-degree Surround-View Camera.
