This model is equipped with several fuel-optimizing technologies that enhance fuel economy and make for both a powerful and efficient drive. On this page, we at Rockwall CDJR will show you what this impressively efficient pickup truck is capable of. Shoppers in the areas of Rockwall, Terrell, Rowlett, and Wylie should read ahead to learn more!

2019 Ram 1500 Official MPG Ratings

The 2019 Ram 1500 offers three powertrain options, each with its own fuel economy ratings. You’ll be able to choose between a 5.7L HEMI® V8 engine, a 5.7L HEMI® V8 engine with eTorque, and a 3.6L Pentastar® V6 engine with eTorque.

See what each available engine and its 4×2 drivetrain counterpart has to offer when it comes to the official efficiency ratings from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA):

	EPA-estimated city MPG	EPA-estimated highway MPG
5.7L HEMI® V81	15 MPG	22 MPG
5.7L HEMI® V8 with eTorque2	17 MPG	23 MPG
3.6L Pentastar® V6 with eTorque3	20 MPG	25 MPG

Even when equipped with its available 4×4 drivetrain, the Ram 1500 still excels in terms of fuel economy. When you pair the 4×4 drivetrain with the available 3.6L Pentastar® V6 engine with eTorque, you’ll enjoy a best-in-class 4×4 fuel economy of EPA-estimated 19 city/24 highway.⁴

The Equipment That Makes It Possible

Two of the engines offered by the Ram 1500 are equipped with eTorque technology, which is technically a 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 equipped with a standard class-exclusive TorqueFlite® 8-speed automatic transmission.⁵ This innovative transmission is designed to optimize each and every shift change, even when you’re trailering a huge load, so you make the most out of your tank of gas.

On top of being able to maximize efficiency, the 2019 Ram 1500 takes power and performance to the next level. This model can make a whopping 395 horsepower and 410 lb-ft of torque. With this kind of power and the right equipment, the Ram 1500 offers a best-in-class towing capacity of 12,750 pounds.⁶ Use the Ram 1500’s towing capabilities to move equipment around the job site or to take the family boat to the lake for the weekend with ease.
