The Equipment That Makes it Possible

Two of the engines offered by the Ram 1500 are equipped with eTorque technology, which is technically a mild hybrid system. This 48-volt mild hybrid system with a motor and generator subsidizes the power coming from the fuel you put into the truck. With this system, you’re using less fuel but getting the same amount of power.

The Ram 1500 also comes standard with a class-exclusive TorqueFlite® 8-speed automatic transmission. This innovative transmission is designed to optimize each shift change, even when you’re trailering a huge load, so you make the most out of your tank of gas.

Plus, this model comes standardly equipped with a 23-gallon gas tank. Long gone are the days of stopping every two hours to fuel up the truck. Get the job done in record time and enjoy trips how they’re meant to be enjoyed—uninterrupted.
