The Workhorse Redefined: The 2024 Ram 1500

Rugged performance and available off-road capabilities combine with sophisticated cabin comforts in the 2024 RAM 1500, a full-size pickup that’s impressed our local drivers.

Strong Engines and Versatility

With three stunning engines to offer, this edition of the RAM 1500 is ready for action, whether its work or play. The first engine, a 3.6-liter V6, generates 305 horsepower, while the intermediate engine, a 5.7-liter HEMI V8, boosts output to 395 horsepower. The latter engine also lends the truck a 12,750-pound maximum towing capacity when fully equipped, though it’s the largest engine, a 6.2-liter supercharged HEMI SRT V8, that provides the most output with its 702 horses.

Four-wheel drive is optional, though some of the more off-road-enhanced trims come standard with it, and this is complemented by the available Selec-Speed Control feature, which is a cruise control designed for rugged terrains. You can conserve fuel by lowering the vehicle while on highways with the Active-Level Four-Corner Air Suspension System, and this efficiency is taken to the next level with the active air dams and precision-designed aerodynamic hood.

Interior Luxuries and Design

With stylish interior color combinations like Black with Diesel Gray or Ruby Red, the truck’s interior provides an upscale environment, and the available power-adjustable front seats offer options like power lumbar support and both heating and ventilation settings. The rear seats also have a heating setting available, and while opting for the rear split-folding 60/40 seat helps clear space for cargo, there’s also an optional under-seat storage area beneath it to help move things out of the way.

Outside, the standard dampened tailgate is offered as an available multi-function one with select trims, providing you multiple ways to secure cargo with its gating functions and easier loading with its swing-away doors. Tackling cold or wet weather while out on the road is easy with the available rain-sensitive front wipers and heated power-folding side mirrors, and while the available deployable bed step makes cargo loading simpler, the multiple hard and soft tonneau cover options help you protect payloads.

Advanced Tech

Plenty of standard technology features also come with this edition, like the Uconnect infotainment system, which can be used to make hands-free calls, access hundreds of available satellite radio channels, stream music wirelessly from smartphones, and adjust driver-preference settings. This is in addition to many available extras, like the full-color head-up display on the windshield, the 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot, the digital rearview mirror, and the wide-spanning 12-inch instrument cluster behind the wheel.
